File -> Wed Jan 4 03:40:07UTC 2023 The statement: So, there's no difference in Degree 1 2 1 0 0 0 and 1 2 1...
This is not correct. These should not be seen as equalities. The Represention that should be adopted ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial) example on is the expanded form, 7x^2y^3 + 4x^1y^0 - 9x^0y^0. The padding should be to the number of variables by the number of terms. pad_knw = var * term 7x^2y^3 + 4x^1y^0 - 9x^0y^0 NB. Known Form For cases where there mayb be unknown variables, the padding should favour (Iyiabo's Method): pad_unknw = (var+(1)) * term 7x^2y^3zz^0 + 4x^1y^0zz^0 - 9x^0y^0zz^0 NB. Unknown Form This expanded form allows additional analysis on this term to be made linear. Whereas, the use of a notional infinity (pad) Requires a complete rework of the term.
