Ah, this makes so much sense. Defining my own singular interface instance is a much better idea. Thanks.

I don't understand why this code breaks:

R1 = singular.ring('(0,a)','(x,y)','dp')
f1 = singular('x^2')
g1 = singular('x')
fsage = f1.sage()
gsage = g1.sage()
print(f1)
print(g1)
print(fsage)
print(gsage)
g2 = fsage.reduce(gsage)
print(g2)
print(f1)

It gives this result:

x^2
x
x^2
x
0
Traceback (most recent call last):    print(g1)
  File "", line 1, in <module>

  File "/tmp/tmpO7_2ph/___code___.py", line 13, in <module>
    exec compile(u'print(f1)
  File "", line 1, in <module>

  File "/home/sage/sage-7.2/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/interfaces/singular.py", line 1318, in __repr__
    elif self.type() == 'matrix':

    return m.group(1)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

f1 prints fine the first time, but after running the reduce, it seems like it no longer exists. I'm trying to use f1 for other things after doing a reduce, but can't seem to find any way to do it.
