SAGE Days 2: SAGE: Now and The Future

A talk for [:days2:the SAGE Days 2 workshop], by William Stein.

  • The purpose of this workshop:

    • lots of strategy, planning, brainstorming, etc.
  • Funding ideas:
  • Mercurial revision control system: why? what? how? -- a very quick tour
  • Python 2.5 (see http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html)

    • index method; now v[ZZ(2)] works.

    • lists with more than 2^32 elements
    • lots of speedups
    • ctypes is included standard
    • conditional expressions: x = true_value if condition else false_value
    • context managers: relevant to all the discussion about precision lately: http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/pep-343.html

  • Recently added SAGE components:
    • GSL: GNU Scientific Library
    • Twisted: Networking framework
  • Upcoming events that are relevant to SAGE development:
    • October 23-27: I'm speaking about SAGE at an IMA "Software in Algebraic Geometry" in Minnesota later this month.
    • Nov 5-11: Me at CCR
    • Dec 3-4, 2006: Me at Waterloo
