18:39 Feature #958: New function: multiplicity and dim
Should this issue be postponed?
John Abbott
18:37 Feature #1033 (Feedback): Split poly into homog parts
I think the *@CutLF@* function solves this issue.
Do you agree? If so, we can close the issue :-)
John Abbott
18:31 Support #574 (Closed): Tidy CoCoA root directory
JAA thinks the current situation is acceptable, and does not see an easy way to improve it.
Closing.
John Abbott
18:16 Bug #593 (Closed): Temporary directories used during configuration
The scripts seems to work fine now.
Closing.
John Abbott
18:13 Feature #759 (Closed): Configuration: where to keep source for test compilations?
I think all scripts use here documents now.
Anyway, this issue can be closed.
John Abbott
18:08 Bug #1078 (Closed): makefile: ungraceful when interrupted
I have not really tested this (as I do not often interrupt a @make@, especially during the rebuilding of the dependen... John Abbott

John Abbott
17:16 Feature #180 (Closed): GlobalManager: registration of global variables
John Abbott
17:08 Design #999 (Closed): configuration: include -std=c++03 by default?
I have not experienced any problem with compiling CoCoALib over the last 10 months, so presumably whatever I did is O... John Abbott
17:03 Bug #1081 (Closed): ideal() * RingElem gives error

Anna Maria Bigatti
14:18 Bug #1081: ideal() * RingElem gives error
Should we allow ideals to be multiplied by integers or rational numbers?... John Abbott
17:00 Support #1097 (Closed): Rename ERR::SERIOUS to ERR::ShouldNeverGetHere
John Abbott
16:33 Feature #638 (Closed): Time limit: let user specify time limit for a computation
John Abbott
16:31 Design #1086 (Closed): New design for interrupt mechanism
John Abbott
16:29 Feature #962 (Closed): General verbose mode?
John Abbott
15:59 Slug #881 (Closed): ReadExpr is too slow on large polys
I have just tested it now, and it seems adequately fast (until someone needs really big polys).
Reading @Chebyshev...
John Abbott
15:18 Slug #1118 (In Progress): SLUG: factorization of x^9999
CoCoA is slow at factorizing high powers of @x@. For example:... John Abbott
14:39 Bug #1088 (Closed): MinPolyQuot: runs out of primes
John Abbott
14:38 Feature #1052: ReadExpr(P, string) and RingElem(P, string) in CoCoALib
Does this change make the file @RingElemInput@ obsolete?
At least the function *@ReadExpr@* should be regarded as ob...
John Abbott
14:37 Feature #1052 (Feedback): ReadExpr(P, string) and RingElem(P, string) in CoCoALib
JAA has updated all tests. John Abbott
14:24 Design #1063 (Closed): Catching an (expected) error
John Abbott
14:22 Design #1065 (Closed): Design: should we allow an ideal to change ring?
John Abbott
14:12 Bug #1082 (Closed): factor in ZZ[x] gives errors
Why didn't I give at least one failing example?
Anyway, it seems OK now... so closing.
John Abbott

13:39 Feature #1117 (In Progress): Better printing of negative coeffs
JAA suggests that we handle integer and rational coeffs specially; all other coeffs are handled in a generic way.
He...
John Abbott
12:34 Feature #1117 (In Progress): Better printing of negative coeffs
Currently CoCoALib prints out polys wth negative rational coeffs in an ugly way:... John Abbott

06 Nov 2017

16:48 Bug #756 (Closed): frobby (v0.9.0) does not compile with g++-4.8
JAA has a temporary version of FROBBY available in @frobby_v0.9.3.tgz@
This seems to avoid the portability problem...
John Abbott
16:43 Bug #975: configure: possibly ignore GMP compilation flags
I have made a preliminary version of @configure@ and various auxiliary scripts which do not expect extra CXXFLAGS for... John Abbott
15:53 Feature #1035 (Closed): Improvement: how to sort QuotientBasis?
John Abbott
15:50 Feature #1102 (Closed): Implement RootBound
John Abbott
15:49 Feature #255 (Closed): Use BOOST lib default location if possible
JAA thinks this has already been resolved adequately in the intervening 5 years.
Closing.
John Abbott
15:31 Feature #796 (Closed): CoCoALib function for radical (or SqFree) of a polynomial
OK, let's use *@radical@* then (both for ideals and ring elements); it is the clearest.
Closing.

It seems that this issue is practically finished except for the questoon of the name of the function.

15:27 Feature #1108 (Closed): New fn: IsCoprime (whenever gcd makes sense)
John Abbott
15:24 Support #574 (Resolved): Tidy CoCoA root directory
I think this has been mostly done.
There is no longer the GPLv2 file, no any file called @INSTALL@ (but there is @...
John Abbott
15:15 Slug #1042 (Closed): LF curiously slow (breaking a poly into homog pieces)
John Abbott
15:12 Feature #979 (Closed): SmallestNonDivisor -- new fn
This is apparently complete (also included in CoCoA-5).
John Abbott
15:06 Bug #1101 (Feedback): Bug in MinPolyModular (insufficient rational reconstruction)
John Abbott
14:41 Feature #37: matrix constructors
*MatByRows/Cols* is now available in CoCoALib.
All other questions have been dealt with, more or less directly.
Anna Maria Bigatti
14:31 Feature #37: matrix constructors
This issue is a bit strange -- it is now quite old, and of questionable relevance now.
Perhaps we should just clos...

Here is another example (possibly simpler than the previous one?):... John Abbott

13:19 Feature #1115 (In Progress): New class: exterior algebra
Add this new class, mimicking @RingWeyl@.
Anna Maria Bigatti

15:36 Slug #1105: Primary Decompositon (zero-dim) slow cases
Here are some examples I found lying around in a file:... John Abbott

17:45 Bug #1113 (Closed): gcd crashes (Floating point exception)
In an old file (from 2006) I found two examples where GCD (in CoCoA4) crashes because it runs out of primes; since we... John Abbott
11:53 Design #703: Add more operations between modules (CoCoALib)
Reminder. Add +. Anna Maria Bigatti

25 Oct 2017

13:29 Slug #1110 (Closed): Determinant of matrix over QQ (whose entries are actually integers)
CoCoA-5 can be much faster as computing @det(M)@ if @RingOf(M)@ is @ZZ@ than the same matrix but over the ring @QQ@.

17:15 Feature #1108 (Resolved): New fn: IsCoprime (whenever gcd makes sense)
I have written a first trivial implementation. Seems to work.
John Abbott
16:50 Feature #1108: New fn: IsCoprime (whenever gcd makes sense)
The fn should be defined when *@gcd@* makes sense (_i.e._ for true GCD domains and @BigInt@).
At the moment I pref...
John Abbott
16:48 Feature #1108 (Closed): New fn: IsCoprime (whenever gcd makes sense)
Define a new fn *@IsCoprime@* which is equivalent to *@IsInvertible(gcd(arg1, arg2))@*
JAA thinks it is better to ...
John Abbott
15:47 Feature #630 (Feedback): Add graeffe function?
Added code; doc; example.
Also made accessible to CoCoA-5.
