Topic: direct_sum vs dfinsup


Antoine Labelle (Sep 27 2022 at 22:16):

What's the difference between docs#direct_sum and docs#dfinsupp? They both have a module structure when the factors themselves have a module structure, so I'm not sure which one I should use to talk about direct sums in linear algebra.

Eric Wieser (Sep 28 2022 at 01:18):

Right now, direct_sum is to add_monoid_algebra as dfinsupp is to finsupp
