4.12 poly

Polynomials are the basic data for all main algorithms in SINGULAR. They consist of finitely many terms (coefficient*power product) which are combined by the usual polynomial operations (see poly expressions). Polynomials can only be defined or accessed with respect to a basering which determines the coefficient type, the names of the indeterminates and the monomial ordering.
