Which sorts of subring would we like to represent?

13:12 Feature #1468 (In Progress): Adjoin indets to a poly ring

What should new indets be called? Should they be "new symbols"? Advantage is that there could be no problems with n... John Abbott

13:51 Feature #1492: submat of a submat

The reason for thinking of this is that the current impl of *@DetByMinors@* is disaapointingly slow on @IdentityMat(Q... John Abbott

13:48 Feature #1492 (New): submat of a submat

It might be worth refining the impl of *@submat@* so that @submat(submat(M,R1,C1),R2,C2)@ is "clever" and returns a s... John Abbott

Has this been fixed? By whom? Can we close th... John Abbott

16:16 Feature #1472: Idea for for loops

just wondering: (I know it's low priority) is this any better than the standard syntax?

11:04 Feature #1472 (In Progress): Idea for for loops

Anna's suggestion of *@range(1,n)@* _etc._ seems simple, clear, flexible.
The intention is that both values are incl... John Abbott

Now I have split @DetDirect@ into two fns: one generic and one for sparsepolyrings (where I can use geobuckets)

There were two problems:

This is now mostly done.

Is this a duplicate of #1488? John Abbott

17:56 Feature #1485 (Resolved): Simple syntax for making a quotient ring?

John Abbott

17:47 Feature #1485 (New): Simple syntax for making a quotient ring?

Should we allow the syntax *@R/I@* to mean the same as *@NewQuotientRing(R,I)@*?
Discuss, and maybe implement.
