Focus & Topics

Introduction and Tutorial for Beginners

Automata and Digit Expansions

Automata and transducers are available in SageMath via its finite state machines module. The introduction of this package will focus on examples related to digit expansions.

Using SageMath in number system research

Experimenting with SageMath

The presentation will cover some experience collected while using SageMath as a tool to help in research and teaching. We will also shortly present the Julia language and compare it with SageMath.
