2013-01-14 04:59:09 +0200 commented answer implication

Thank you. Yes you are right , it is my mistake. Mathematics gives False for that implication.
2013-01-08 08:28:30 +0200 asked a question implication

Hello !

I wish to know how implication works in sage. In mathematica "Implies[True, False]" gives true.

In sage I wrote "true.implies(false)" it gives attribute error : "'bool' object has no attribute implies"

May I know How I should use implies in sage ?

Thanks.

Thanks for the opinion. Yes I am interesting in finding whether computer algebra system like sage could be useful for checking purpose. Again thanks.

Actually I am using mathematical problems from secondary school or high school level and trying to develop a function in sage which can check whether consecutive expressions are logically true or not, and hence we can check whole example whether it is correct or not.

Sorry for improper English. In the preceding post I wanted to know How 'or' works in sage. But I got answer and now I know that. In this post I said I really need comments and suggestions because I want to edit this function and want to make it more reliable.

2013-01-04 10:55:37 +0200 asked a question Need to improve a function in sage which checks trueness of expressions in an example.

Hello !

Here I have made a function in sage which checks equality between consecutive expressions in an example.

This function takes a set of examples as an argument. I want to improve my function and I really need comments and suggestions for correcting this function.

Two examples which I have used are as follows.

Example 1:

(1 - ((1 + sqrt(a))/(sqrt(a)- 1)))

=

(1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))/(-sqrt(a) + 1)))

=

(1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))* (1 + sqrt(a))/((-sqrt(a) + 1) * (sqrt(a) + 1))))

=

(1 + ((1 + 2* sqrt(a) + a)/(1 - a)))

=

(1 + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a) )/(1-a)))

=

(((1-a)/(1-a)) + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a))/(1-a)))

=

(1-a+1+a+ 2*sqrt(a))/(1-a)

=

(2+2*sqrt(a))/(1-a)

Example2:

x^2 + 2*x -3 == 0

<=>

x == (-2 + (2^2 -41(-3))^(1/2))/(21) or x == (-2 - (2^2 -41(-3))^(1/2))/(21)

<=>

x == (-2 + (4+12)^(1/2))/(21) or x == (-2 - (4+12)^(1/2))/(21)

<=>

x == (-2 + (16)^(1/2))/(21) or x == (-2 - (16)^(1/2))/(21)

<=>

x == (-2 + 4)/(21) or x == (-2 - 4)/(21)

<=>

x == (2)/(2) or x == (-6)/(2)

<=>

x == 1 or x == -3

The Problem is , following function checks first example correctly but not second example. In the second example, final answer is x == 1 or x == -3 but even if I provide wrong answer x == -1 or x == -3 it gives true. I have already received explanation about how 'or' behaves. see here

---------------Function begins ---------------

var('j,e,exprList,as1,i,lhs,rhs,r,r1,x')

def ComExpr(a):

r1 = []; 

for j in range(0,len(a)):

forget();

    e = a[ZZ(j)]

    exprList = e[0]

    as1 = e[1]
    print len(a)

r = [];

    for i in range(0,len(exprList)-1):

    forget(); 

        lhs = exprList[ZZ(i)]

        rhs = exprList[ZZ(i+1)]

    assume(as1 and lhs);   

    p1 = rhs.full_simplify()

    forget();

        assume(as1 and rhs); 

    p2 = lhs.full_simplify()

    r.append(bool(p1 and p2))

    r1.append(r)    

return r1

e1 is first example containing two elements one is list of expressions and another is assumption. Same for e2.

e1 = [[(1 - ((1 + sqrt(a))/(sqrt(a)- 1))) == (1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))/(-sqrt(a) + 1))), (1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))/(-sqrt(a) + 1))) == (1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))* (1 + sqrt(a))/((-sqrt(a) + 1) * (sqrt(a) + 1)))), (1 + ((1 + sqrt(a))* (1 + sqrt(a))/((-sqrt(a) + 1) * (sqrt(a) + 1)))) == (1 + ((1 + 2* sqrt(a) + a)/(1 - a))), (1 + ((1 + 2* sqrt(a) + a)/(1 - a))) == (1 + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a) )/(1-a))), (1 + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a) )/(1-a))) == (((1-a)/(1-a)) + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a) )/(1-a))), (((1-a)/(1-a)) + ((1+a + 2* sqrt(a))/(1-a))) == (1-a+1+a+ 2*sqrt(a))/(1-a)], a > 1];

sage: ComExpr([e1]) 1 [[True, True, True, True, True]]

e2=[[x^2 + 2x -3 == 0, x == (-2 + (2^2 -41(-3))^(1/2))/(21) or x == (-2 - (2^2 -41(-3))^(1/2))/(21),x == (-2 ... (more)

2013-01-04 08:21:04 +0200 asked a question Behavior of 'or'

Hello !

Here I have observed something in sage.

sage: (x == 1 or x == -3).full_simplify()

x == -3

sage: (x == -1 or x == -3).full_simplify()

x == -3

sage: (x == -1 or x == 3).full_simplify()

x == 3

sage: (x == -1 or x == -3).full_simplify()

x == -3

sage: (x == 1 or x == -3).full_simplify()

x == -3

I wish to know that why sage replies with the second argument. It is very necessary for me to understand this behavior of sage.

Many Thanks !
2013-01-02 07:25:18 +0200 asked a question Express domain membership

Hello I am trying to write an expressing showing its membership in ZZ, RR, QQ. e.g In sage "assume(x in ZZ) "gives me error.

If I want to show that the symbol x belongs to ZZ then how should I express it ?

Best wishes

2012-10-26 11:08:10 +0200 asked a question Equivalence operator

Hi ! Here I have a small sage code.

x = var('x'); assume(x>0); print([x>0] == [1==1])

Sage prints it as "False".

In the above piece of code "[x>0] == [1==1]" is logically true as there is already an assumption, though it gives False.

I wish to know How does comparison operator "==" works ? Specially when comparing two predicates ? Does there any other function exist for such comparison ?

Best regards

I got it.. Thank you. I wish to understand something regarding following code. x = var('x'); assume(x>0); print([x>0] == [1==1]) Sage answers it as "False" In the above piece of code "[x>0] == [1==1]" is logically true but it is gives False. I wish to know How does comparison operator "==" works ? Specially when comparing two predicates ? Does there any other function exist for such comparison ? Best regards
2012-10-25 17:04:20 +0200 asked a question Assumptions in sage

Hello!

I am a sage beginner and I wish to know that How sage handles assumptions ?

My example is as follows.

a= var('a'); solve((a-1)*x ==3, x);

and sage solves and gives correct solution [x==(3 / (a - 1))]. But here how the assumption (a != 1) is handled ? Because solution is not defined for (a=1).

Best regards
