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 4
  • Degree(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 4
  • Degree(x^4 y^3 + 2 x^2 y^3, y) yields 3
