Check if a finitely generated matrix group is finite (works with QQ and not with CC)

savecancel

Dear all, I am a newbie in sage. I would like to check if a finitely generated matrix group is finite. Before to proceed with the calculation on my actual problem (where matrices have complex entries), I have tried a very simple example. Consider the group generated by the matrices [1,0,0,1] and [0,1,1,0], this group is clearly finite. Can somebody explain me why the following code works:

sage: MS = MatrixSpace(QQ, 2, 2)
sage: G = MatrixGroup([MS([1,0,0,1]),MS([0,1,1,0])])
sage: G.is_finite()
True

but if I change the field QQ -> RR (or CC), an error is generated:

sage: MS = MatrixSpace(RR, 2, 2)
sage: G = MatrixGroup([MS([1,0,0,1]),MS([0,1,1,0])])
sage: G.is_finite()

NotImplementedError:

Is there any way to force the second piece of code to work with matrices with entries in CC?

Thank you in advance.
