Sage Days 20.5: Fields Institute, Toronto, Canada

Schedule

We will standardize on Sage Version 4.4, so please have that version installed on you computer (this is a very new release, and it might be a day or two until the binaries for version 4.4 are available).
To install Sage, please visit the Sage website, click download and follow the instructions. You can either download and install a binary for your system, or you can compile from source. Be aware that compiling from source takes a long time.

Sage
- Sage tutorial
- A tour of Sage closely follows the tour of Mathematica that is at the beginning of the Mathematica Book.
- Exploring Mathematics with Sage: a free, open-source mathematical workshop
- A quick Cython introduction
