12:37 CoCoALib Design #1156: Printing for RingElem
Part of the motivation is that it seems to be tricky to resolve issue #930 about printing out TwinFloat values as pol... John Abbott
12:30 CoCoALib Design #1156 (New): Printing for RingElem
JAA would like to reconsider the design of printing for @RingElem@ because the current design is rather inelegant. John Abbott
12:28 CoCoA-5 Bug #1152: Release: problems with sed
*(A)* The simplest solution is to call @sed@ directly without using its full path:
* *@+++@* should work everywhere

21:10 CoCoALib Feature #1154: SmallFpImpl: new ctor arg to say do-not-check-that-arg-is-prime
Another posibility is for a "prime source" to produce values of a new type @SmallPrime@ (which is really just a @long... John Abbott

Several CRT loops look a lot like this:... John Abbott
20:49 CoCoALib Feature #1154 (Closed): SmallFpImpl: new ctor arg to say do-not-check-that-arg-is-prime
I propose adding a new ctor for @SmallFpImpl@ where the caller can use a flag to guarantee that the arg is prime.

21:02 CoCoALib Feature #1155: Create a new "prime source" iterator
Add a new class to CoCoALib for generating primes in succession -- for use inside CRT loops.
Currently a CRT loop ...

20:55 CoCoALib Feature #1155 (Closed): Create a new "prime source" iterator
In CoCoA-4 the old factorizer code had an "iterator" for generating primes in succession.
Add such an object to Co...

08:08 CoCoA-5 Feature #1153 (New): New function: gin for algebraic extensions
Think of theory and implement @gin@ for algebraic extensions Anna Maria Bigatti
07:40 CoCoA-5 Bug #1152 (Closed): Release: problems with sed
For some compilations there are problems with the path for @sed@.

Anna Maria Bigatti
13:48 CoCoALib Feature #1115: New class: exterior algebra
JAA has made a first impl (mostly copying code from @RingWeyl@). Many fns are still NYI.

15:28 CoCoA-5 Feature #368: port SmithNormalForm (CoCoA-4)package to CoCoA-5
This should be ported to CoCoALib (once it has been corrected). It would surely be faster ;-)

15:27 CoCoA-5 Feature #368: port SmithNormalForm (CoCoA-4)package to CoCoA-5
More failing examples:... John Abbott
15:23 CoCoA-5 Feature #368 (In Progress): port SmithNormalForm (CoCoA-4)package to CoCoA-5
Anna says she has "cleaned up" the original CoCoA-4 code so that CoCoA-5 accepts it.
The code is in @MatNormalForm.c...

17:32 CoCoA-5 Design #1151: ConcatList or ConcatLists
Personally I find the name @ConcatLists@ more "natural" because it concatenates many lists.
The fns @ConcatVerList...
John Abbott
17:19 CoCoA-5 Design #1151 (In Progress): ConcatList or ConcatLists
The reason why the builtin function is called ...List is that this is the naming convention for functions operating o... Anna Maria Bigatti
17:12 CoCoA-5 Design #1151: ConcatList or ConcatLists
In the current version (5.2.2) the fn *@ConcatList@* is built-in, while *@ConcatLists@* is defined in @list.cpkg5@ an... John Abbott
17:06 CoCoA-5 Design #1151 (Closed): ConcatList or ConcatLists
CoCoA-5 has both *@ConcatList@* and *@ConcatLists@*. They are identical.
We should keep just one.

Do we want a new fun for transforming an ideal with a ringhom?

14:33 CoCoALib Design #925: MachineInt or long for args which are indices (yet again)
Should indices be constrained to be non-negative?
Note that @symbol@ currently does allow negative "indices".

16:09 CoCoALib Feature #872: LinSolve for matrices over FFp
I have implemented a version of "LinDepMill" for MatrixFp.
This should be a good basis for further impls.

The advantage of having @mySquare@ private is that we do not need to do arg checking, and there is (perhaps?) no need... John Abbott
