Notes on embedding Sage into WW problems using the Sage cell server - May/June 2012
When passing functions to Sage, if the function is defined as a math object problems can occur since it can happen that none of
$f $f->string() $f->stringify() $f->TeX()
return the orginal string used to define the function.
For example with the set up:
Context("Numeric");
$f = Compute("(x-(-2))*(x-2)*(x-4)");
then
$f->string()
produces[x-(-2)]*(x-2)*(x-4)
$f->TeX() produces\left(x-\left(-2\right)\right)\!\left(x-2\right)\!\left(x-4\right) $f->stringify() produces: [x-(-2)]*(x-2)*(x-4) in normalStrings \left(x-\left(-2\right)\right)\!\left(x-2\right)\!\left(x-4\right) in texStrings Possible solution: Use a construction like
$f_raw = "(x-(-2))*(x-2)*(x-4)"; $f = Compute($f_raw);
