Shouldn't we use the previously cached result here? ``` Macaulay2, version 1.11.1 with packages: ConwayPolynomials, Elimination, IntegralClosure, InverseSystems, LLLBases, PrimaryDecomposition, ReesAlgebra, TangentCone i1 : R=ZZ/101[x,y] o1 = R o1 :...
Loading a package results in opening its raw documentation database file and leaving it open for future access. But the default number of open files for a process can be...

The package RandomObjects exports a symbol called "Certification", which obscures the core symbol of the same name, so that loading RandomObjects first and then a certified package results in an...
Do it better: ``` i1 : R=QQ[x]; i2 : f = matrix {{x}}; g = x * id_(R^1); 1 1 o2 : Matrix R
A defect in the way we organize packages is that a package may be present in the packages directory but not on the list of packages to be distributed, and...
... such as for elements of `(frac (QQ[a])) [x,y,z]` or `(toField (QQ[a]/f))[x,y,z]`. For the former case, clear denominators of the coefficients. For the latter, "factory" provides the functionality. In the...
Can tests actually be functions? See the last line below. ``` i5 : installPackage "Foo" --installing package Foo in ../../../Library/Application Support/Macaulay2/local/ --using package sources found in /Users/dan/src/M2/M2-Macaulay2/M2/Macaulay2/packages/ --copying auxiliary source...
