Summary methods for mvp objects and extraction of typical terms
Usage
# S3 method for class 'mvp'
summary(object, ...)
# S3 method for class 'summary.mvp'
print(x, ...)
rtypical(object,n=3)
Arguments
- x,object
Multivariate polynomial, class mvp
- n
In rtypical(), number of terms (in addition to the
constant) to select
- ...
Further arguments, currently ignored
Details
The summary method prints out a list of interesting facts about an
mvp object such as the longest term or highest power. Function
rtypical() extracts the constant if present, and a random
selection of terms of its argument.

Examples
summary(rmvp(40))
#> mvp object.
#> Number of terms: 30
#> Number of distinct symbols: 6
#> Highest power: 4
#> Longest term: 4
#> Has negative powers: FALSE
#> Constant: 142
rtypical(rmvp(40))
#> mvp object algebraically equal to
#> 40 + 23 a d e f + 40 b c^3 f^2 + 25 c
