Synopsis

• Usage:

  sort(...,DegreeOrder=>x)

• Inputs:
  • x, a symbol, either Ascending, Descending, or null
• Consequences:

  • If x is not null, first order the columns of the matrix in ascending or descending degree (depending on x). If x is null, then only use the monomial order in the sort

Further information

• Default value: null
• Function: sort -- sort a list or columns of a matrix
• Option key: DegreeOrder -- sort primarily by degree

Caveat

This option only works for sorting columns of a matrix, not the elements of a list

Functions with optional argument named DegreeOrder :

• rsort(...,DegreeOrder=>...) -- specify Ascending, Descending, or null
• sort(...,DegreeOrder=>...) -- specify Ascending, Descending, or null
• sortColumns(...,DegreeOrder=>...) -- specify Ascending, Descending, or null
