▸ function eDegree (p: number[][]): number

Defined in basic/expansion/e-degree.ts:16

Returns the degree of the given polynomial - the zero polynomial degree is returned as -1 (and not -∞ as is conventional).

example

eDegree([[9],[8],[7],[6],[5],[4],[3],[2],[1]]); //=> 8

Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
pnumber[][]a polynomial with coefficients given densely as an array of Shewchuk floating point expansions from highest to lowest power, e.g. [[5],[-3],[0]] represents the polynomial 5x^2 - 3x

Returns: number
