::
maxMinor(..., Strategy => ...)
maxMinor(..., Strategy => ...) -- choose between Exact and Numeric algorithms
Synopsis
Usage:
maxMinor(M, Strategy => s)
Inputs:
m
,
a
matrix
, a matrix (usually with coefficients in a polynomial ring)
s
,
a
symbol
, either
Exact
or
Numeric
Consequences:
If
s
is
Exact
, then the
rank
algorithms is used computing minors; if
s
is
Numeric
, then numerical rank computation is used, this is, all coefficients are evaluated in the ground field before computing ranks.
Description
Exact
is the default Strategy.
Further information
Default value:
null
Function:
maxMinor
-- Returns a maximal minor of the matrix of full rank.
Option name:
Strategy
-- name for an optional argument

maxCol
-- Returns a submatrix form by a maximal set of linear independent columns.
