Syntax
Support(F:POLY or VECTOR):LIST
Summary
the list of terms of a polynomial or vector
Description
This function returns the list of terms of F.  To get a list of
monomials, which includes coefficients, use 'Monomials'.

Example

Use R ::= Q[x,y];
F := 3x^2-4xy+y^3+3;
Support(F);
[y^3, x^2, xy, 1]
-------------------------------
Monomials(F);
[y^3, 3x^2, -4xy, 3]
-------------------------------
Support(Vector(x^2y,x^3-3y^2,34));
[Vector(0, x^3, 0), Vector(x^2y, 0, 0), Vector(0, y^2, 0), Vector(0, 0, 1)]
