Summary


This chapter provided you with advanced tools that will help you get the most out of Sage. We learned about:

  • Exporting mathematical expressions in PDF files and PNG bitmaps

  • Generating LaTeX mark-up that describes a mathematical expression

  • Incorporating LaTeX mark-up into a text cell in a workbook

  • Processing LaTeX mark-up in a workbook

  • Using NumPy to improve the execution speed of your code

  • Using Sage from a stand-alone Python script

  • Creating interactive graphical examples in the notebook interface

I hope you have found Sage to be a useful tool that takes much of the pain out of mathematics. This book has only scratched the surface of its capabilities, especially if you are interested in advanced mathematics. Refer to the online documentation for Sage and Python to learn more. The Sage worksheets published at http://www.sagenb.org/pub/ can also be an excellent resource.
