Syntax |
LM(P:POLY or VECTOR):same type as P |
Summary |
the leading monomial of a polynomial or vector |
Description |
This function returns the leading monomial of P. The monomial includes the coefficient. To get the leading term of P, (which does not included the coefficient), use 'LT'. |
Example |
Use R ::= Q[x,y]; LM(3x^2y+y); 3x^2y ------------------------------- LM(Vector(2x,y)); Vector(2x, 0) ------------------------------- LT(Vector(2x,y)); Vector(x, 0) ------------------------------- |
