pub fn degree(nvars: usize, ncoeffs: usize) -> Option<Power>
Expand description
Returns the degree of a polynomial given the number of variables and coefficients.
This is the inverse of ncoeffs()
. If there is no degree for which
ncoeffs(nvars, degree) == ncoeffs
, this function returns None
. For
example, a polynomial in two variables has one coefficient for degree zero
and three for degree one, but there is nothing in between.
