algfunc.spad line 257 [edit on github]
This package provides algebraic functions over an integral domain.
x ^ q is x raised to the rational power q.
belong?(op) is true if op is an algebraic operator, that is, an nth root or implicit algebraic operator.
definingPolynomial(f) returns the defining polynomial of f as an element of F. Error: if f is not a kernel.
droot(l) should be a non-exported function.
inrootof(p, x) should be a non-exported function.
iroot(p, n) should be a non-exported function.
minPoly(k) returns the defining polynomial of k.
operator(op) returns a copy of op with the domain-dependent properties appropriate for F. Error: if op is not an algebraic operator, that is, an nth root or implicit algebraic operator.
rootOf(p, y) returns y such that p(y) = 0. The object returned displays as 'y.
rootSum(expr, p, s)
