Sage2LaTeX: is it an error?

[adriatikus]

Hi.

I have the following Sage code:

var('l')
var('r')
x = (r+l)/(r-l)
latex(x)

And the output is:
\frac{-l + r}{l - r}

Shouldn't it be instead
\frac{-(l + r)}{l - r}



Thank you.

Thank you for your bug report. I can confirm this problem with Sage 4.5.2:

sage: version()
'Sage Version 4.5.2, Release Date: 2010-08-05'
sage: var('l'); var('r');
sage: x = (r+l)/(r-l)
sage: latex(x)

\frac{-l + r}{l - r}

sage: x
-(l + r)/(l - r)

The relevant bug tracking tickets are #9394 [1] and #9834 [2].

Thank you for your reply. It is indeed 4.5.2 (for OSX). The online
version has it too.
