Edit detail for #312 Bug in sqrt() for UnivariateTaylorSeries revision 1 of 2

1 2
Editor:
Time: 2007/11/17 22:24:55 GMT-8
Note: documentation of fix

changed:
-
\begin{axiom}
UTSx := UTS(FRAC INT,x,0)
monx2 := monomial(1,2)$UTSx
sqrt(monx2)
\end{axiom}

The last line should of course be $x$ and not $1$. Clearly, sqrt() shifts the coefficients of the result such that the leading term is always O(1).

Subject: Fix by Igor Khavkine
Message-ID: <20061027030219-0500@wiki.axiom-developer.org>

I'm forwarding this fix proposed by Igor himself, lest it is lost in the archives.

The relevant message in axiom-math is

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/axiom-math/2006-08/msg00025.html

For simplicity, here is the fix::

  diff -ur axiom-20050901/src/algebra/sttaylor.spad.pamphlet axiom-20050901.new/src/algebra/sttaylor.spad.pamphlet

  +        concat(zeropref, power)
  +
 
       if A has Field then
         mapdiv(x,y) == delay

If somebody could complete the documentation as outlined in

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/axiom-developer/2006-08/msg00486.html

that would be great.

Finally, I have to confess that it is very likely myself who introduced this bug, while fixing #63
