Hi all,

So I start up Sage using the command:

'/Applications/Sage-6.2.app/Contents/Resources/sage'/sage

I'm trying to load this file:

#mod.sage
precision = 30

m = ModularForms(Gamma0(12),10,prec = precision)

p = m.basis()

Unfortunately I get a very large error when I run the following command: attach("mod.sage") However when I comment out the line p = m.basis(), the error goes away. I'm attaching the text from the error message below. Any ideas on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the sloppy formatting!

In calculating the basis, it seems to be doing some very strange imports. Do you have any PATH set strangely? Where are you running this from? In particular, lines like

/Users/brandonrayhaun/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/__init__.py

There should not be anything using an outside version of numpy, only the Sage version of it should be used. I'm also not sure what

/Users/brandonrayhaun/Desktop/Code/Sage/vector_real_double_dense.pyx

is; why would this file be in some random folder? (Perhaps you are working on it?)

So my advice (this is sort of an answer) is to make sure you don't have any code like that "visible" to Sage. Since this is a compiled version in the app bundle, I don't know why that would happen, but apparently Sage is getting confused by all your different versions of some code.

Thank you very much for your help. With regards to the second file, I'm looking at the directory in Finder (I'm on a Mac) and I cannot see a file named vector_real_double_dense.pyx. Very strange! With regards to the first file, I think I had downloaded something like Enthought for a class once. I'll try to go and get that off my machine.

It turned out to be the first file you mentioned. I uninstalled Enthought and everything works great now. Thanks so much. I would like to upvote your answer but am not sure how to.

Yes, I tried to do this but when I click there nothing happens. I think I might not have enough reputation to upvote.

@brandonrayhaun: yes, the faq at http://ask.sagemath.org/faq/ says you need 15 points to upvote. You can probably at least accept the answer by clicking the tick mark, have you tried that?
