Expand description

Describes the interface for a term (monomial) of a multivariate polynomial.

Required Methods§

source

fn new(term: Vec<(usize, usize)>) -> Self

Create a new Term from a list of tuples of the form (variable, power)

source

fn degree(&self) -> usize

Returns the total degree of self. This is the sum of all variable powers in self

source

fn vars(&self) -> Vec<usize>

Returns a list of variables in self

source

fn powers(&self) -> Vec<usize>

Returns a list of the powers of each variable in self

source

fn is_constant(&self) -> bool

Returns whether self is a constant

source

fn evaluate<F: Field>(&self, p: &[F]) -> F

Evaluates self at the point p.
