I get a syntax error when trying the command

load "example.sage"

in a workspace in cloud.sagemath.com:

Error in lines 1-1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/mnt/home/VCQT9SWb/.sagemathcloud/sage_server.py", line 412, in execute
    exec compile(block, '', 'single') in namespace, locals
  File "<string>", line 1
    load "example.sage"
                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

It's best to use load('example.sage'), which is just a normal Python function call, but will do what you want. These "% magics" have got a bit out of hand, at least in cases when they are not needed.

William,

I used load command and in my .SAGE file I have another load for *.pyx file. I am observing following while running .SAGE script:

load('hopf_animate.sage') Compiling ./fib_param.pyx...

It is taking lot of time, so am I missing something here.

Thanks & Regards, Vijay

Hi,

Even with a standard Sage installation, the command load "example.sage" will not work. Use

%runfile example.sage

instead (but I do not know whether it would work on the cloud).

Yes, with standard sage, "load" provokes a message "DeprecationWarning: Use %runfile instead of load", but loads it anyway. But in a "worksheet", "%runfile" doesn't work, either, resulting in "NameError: name 'runfile' is not defined"

Still won't work. Sage saves as a .sobj file but on load says .sobj files are not recognized. Should be a simple save, load but they're making it awful hard.
