- Degree[ <Polynomial> ]
- Gives the degree of a polynomial (in the main variable).
- Example:
Degree[x^4 + 2 x^2]yields 4
CAS Syntax
- Degree[ <Polynomial> ]
- Gives the degree of a polynomial (in the main variable or monomial).
- Example:
Degree[x^4 + 2 x^2]yields 4Degree[x^6 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3]yields 9
- 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 4Degree[x^4 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3, y]yields 3
