Some notes on sage:

To import an ascii text file with coordinates, do:

<pre style="margin:20px; border-left: solid grey 3px; background-color:lightgrey;padding:5px;width:750px;">
d = scipy.io.array_import.read_array('output.txt')
</pre>
But this is super slow, should probably just use gnuplot for now...

<pre style="margin:20px; border-left: solid grey 3px; background-color:lightgrey;padding:5px;width:750px;">
gnuplot('set terminal png; set xrange[-4:4]; set yrange[-100:100]; set output "/home/bnewbold/fromsage.png"; plot "/home/bnewbold/output";')
</pre>
Could fidget with style settings too.

Fiddled some more got an @interact going: see a screenshot
<a href="22jan2009-sage-interact-screenshot.png">here</a>.

Still have most of yesturday's stuff to do if i'm going to pursue that... I 
got scmutils working (at least partially) on a virtual machine: <a
href="http://eta.xvm.mit.edu/">eta.xvm.mit.edu</a>. It's a amd64 host so I had
to fiddle with loading extra 32bit libraries, more about that in these <a
href="../other/mit-scheme-etch-amd64-howto.txt">directions</a> I emailed to the
mit-scheme-devel list.
