Actual functions to use in Sage

ST 2012-11-13

Command line syntax:

  use from Sage (via the "load" or the "attach" commands)

pobyso functions come in five flavors:

- the _so_so (arguments and returned objects are pointers to Sollya objects,

  includes the void function and the no arguments function that return a

  pointer to a Sollya object);

- the _so_sa (argument are pointers to Sollya objects, returned objects are

  Sage/Python objects or, more generally, information is transfered from the

  Sollya world to Sage/Python world; e.g. functions without arguments that

  return a Sage/Python object);

- the _sa_so (arguments are Sage/Python objects, returned objects are

  pointers to Sollya objects);

- the sa_sa (arguments and returned objects are all Sage/Python objects);

- a catch all flavor, without any suffix, (e. g. functions that have no argument

  nor return value).

This classification is not always very strict. Conversion functions from Sollya

to Sage/Python are sometimes decorated with Sage/Python arguments to set

the precision. These functions remain in the so_sa category.

NOTES:

Reported errors in Eclipse come from the calls to

the Sollya library

ToDo (among other things):

 -memory management.
