Converting from Mathematica output

Hi!

I am trying to run a Mathematica program from within Sage and would like to convert the output of the program to Sage objects, so that I can keep manipulating them. The output are typically lists. However, I am having trouble with the conversion; see the Sage session below. Does someone know what is wrong or how to do it correctly (my reference is link:here ).

Thank you!

Anne
