CAS Syntax
- Degree[ <Polynomial> ]
- Gives the degree of a polynomial.
- Example:
Degree[x^4 + 2 x^2]yields 4.
- Example:
Degree[x^4 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3]yields 7.
- Degree[ <Polynomial>, <Variable> ]
- Gives the degree of a polynomial in the given variable.
- Example:
Degree[x^4 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3, x]yields 4,
Degree[x^4 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3, y]yields 3.}}
