complex norm
As a newbie, I must be missing something, but here is the question:
With this setup:
var('a', domain=CC)
a.norm()
a.norm().simplify()
The last line displays as a^2, but should be |a|^2 .
What am I missing?
Which Sage version are you using? For the two lines I obtain the same answer
a*conjugate(a)
.I can not reproduce this either on 7.6 nor 8.0rc2, though i can reproduce on
5.12
. So, you just have to update your version of Sage.
