FUNCTION : lqdegree0 - q-degree of a q-monomial CALLING SEQUENCE : lqdegree0() lqdegree0(qexp) PARAMETERS : qexp - q-monomial SYNOPSIS : Returns q-degree of a q-monomial and can handle fractional and negative degrees. EXAMPLES : > with(qseries): > lqdegree0(); ------------------------------------------------------------- lqdegree0(qexp) qexp is q-monomial. This function returns the degree in q. It also handles fractional degrees. ------------------------------------------------------------- > B:=sqrt(q)*JAC(0,1,infinity); 1/2 B := q JAC(0, 1, infinity) > lqdegree0(B); 1/2 > B1:=(q)*JAC(0,1,infinity); B1 := q JAC(0, 1, infinity) > lqdegree0(B1); 1 > B2:=JAC(0,1,infinity); B2 := JAC(0, 1, infinity) > lqdegree0(B2); 0 > B3:=JAC(0,1,infinity)/q^3; JAC(0, 1, infinity) B3 := ------------------- 3 q > lqdegree0(B3); -3 > B4:=JAC(0,1,infinity)/q^(1/3); JAC(0, 1, infinity) B4 := ------------------- 1/3 q > lqdegree0(B4); -1/3 DISCUSSION : F SEE ALSO : lqdegree
