Description (last modified by )
A follow up to #22310. As promised there, this switch makes even full-dimensional polytopes faster, on the same example we now get
sage: timeit("LatticePolytope(lattice_polytope.cross_polytope(3).vertices()).facet_normals()") 625 loops, best of 3: 976 µs per loop
The reason is that dimension computation used to be quite complicated.
Next in the chain of lattice polytope improvements is #22524

I successfully installed this patch and tried some variants on the example. Speed seems to work as advertised:
sage: sim = ReflexivePolytope(3,0) sage: timeit("sim.facet_normals()") 625 loops, best of 3: 576 ns per loop

Have you tried using normaliz? In dimension >= 10 it is likely to be faster. For that reason, it is good to have an optional keyword method=
or algorithm=
that simplifies speed comparisons.

Replying to vdelecroix:

The interest here is mostly in polytopes of dimensions 3-4-5, when the bottleneck is often the interface between programs. Also, the old code was quite convoluted for many reasons and adding different algorithms would be tricky. One of the goals of this and related tickets was to clean up the mess to indeed allow using different backends for certain operations.

I tried building again, and now this patch fails, with errors involving sage-ursula/src/build/cythonized/sage/
. My guess is that the transition from Sage 7.6 to the current development branch is too great. Do you mind updating the patch?

Can you please be more specific in how it fails? The branch merges cleanly and passes tests according to the patchbot.
comment:12 Changed 5 years ago by
It also works for me. I am guessing what happened is @ursula just used the branch, effectively downgrading her version of Sage to that of the branch, and ran sage -b
, which does not rebuild the necessary parts of Sage. In general, I always make sure to merge it ontop of (my version of) develop
to avoid regressing Sage (which will include long compilation time). If that is not what [@ursula] did, then try running make build
and then sage -t
.

Thank you!!!
Of course your changes look good - anything to get it in ;-) A small question however:
TypeError: the point M(1, 1) and - 2-d cone in 2-d lattice N have incompatible lattices! + 2-d cone in 2-d lattice N have incompatible lattices
Your new line apart from dropping the exclamation point due to exception formatting change also adds a space in front of the second part of the broken line. Is this also the style recommended somewhere? I can't recall ever reading it.
comment:15 Changed 5 years ago by
Not really, but I feel its gives better grouping that it is part of the error message and not some new line of output, similar to indenting function blocks.

Also, Python does not use sentence ending punctuation for any exceptions (or initial uppercase letters).
