attemptsAtGenericReduction -- number of attempts to compute Bass numbers via a generic reduction

Description

The value stored in R.attemptsAtGenericReduction controls how many attempts are made to reduce R modulo a generic regular sequence when Bass numbers are computed by torAlgClass. Use setAttemptsAtGenericReduction to set this value.

i1 : Q = ZZ/2[u,v,w,x,y,z];
 
i2 : R = Q/ideal(x*y,y*z,x^3,x^2*z,x*z^2-y^3,z^3);
 
i3 : R.?attemptsAtGenericReduction

o3 = false
 
i4 : setAttemptsAtGenericReduction(R,100)

o4 = 10000 attempt(s) will be made to compute the Bass numbers via a generic
     reduction
 
i5 : R.attemptsAtGenericReduction

o5 = 100
