Detailed Description

The format used for a monomial m in n variables is n m[0] ... m[n-1], where there are two spaces after the first integer and single spaces only otherwise.

monomial_t mon_from_string

(

char *

str

)

Returns the monomial given by the string representation str.

char* mon_to_string	(	monomial_t	x,
		const uint8_t	n
	)

Returns a string representation of the monomial x in variables.

char* mon_to_string_pretty	(	monomial_t	x,
		const uint8_t	n,
		const char *	vars
	)

Returns a pretty string representation of the monomial x in variables.

Since x is a monomial in n + 1 variables, the array of chars vars should have length at least that, so that the ith entry can be used as a symbol for the ith variable in x.

Alternatively, if vars == NULL, an array of default variable names is used.
