'int' object has no attribute 'digits'

Hello all,

When I run the following two lines of code,

for j in range(3,4):
   print j.digits(3)

I get the error message

AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'digits'

However, the following two lines give the expected outcome [0,1]:

j=3 
j.digits(3)

What can be wrong?

Thanks in advance!

The issue is that the range function outputs numbers of the type Python int rather than Sage Integer, and digits is only defined for the latter. You could use Sage's srange function instead:

for i in range(2):
    print(type(i))

will produce

<class 'int'>
<class 'int'>

whereas

for i in srange(2):
    print(type(i))

will give

<class 'sage.rings.integer.Integer'>
<class 'sage.rings.integer.Integer'>

This should work:

for j in range(3,4):
    print(Integer(j).digits(3))
