ShowTally -- optional input to choose if the tally is to be returned

Description

If ShowTally => false (the default value), then only the 2 basic statistics - mean and standard deviation - of the function will be returned. If ShowTally => true, then both the statistics and the tally will be returned.

i1 : R=ZZ/101[a,b,c];
i2 :       ideals = {monomialIdeal"a3,b,c2", monomialIdeal"a3,b,ac"}

                      3      2                   3
o2 = {monomialIdeal (a , b, c ), monomialIdeal (a , b, a*c)}

o2 : List
i3 :       dimStats(ideals)

o3 = (.5, .5)

o3 : Sequence
i4 : mingenStats(ideals)

o4 = (3, 0, 3, 0)

o4 : Sequence

In order to view the tally, ShowTally must be set to true (ShowTally => true) when the function is called:

i5 : degStats(ideals)

o5 = (3.5, 2.5)

o5 : Sequence
i6 : pdimStats(ideals)

o6 = (3, 0)

o6 : Sequence
i7 : dimStats(ideals,ShowTally=>true)

o7 = (.5, .5, Tally{0 => 1})
                    1 => 1

o7 : Sequence
i8 : mingenStats(ideals,ShowTally=>true)

o8 = (3, 0, Tally{3 => 2}, 3, 0, Tally{3 => 2})

o8 : Sequence
i9 : degStats(ideals,ShowTally=>true)

o9 = (3.5, 2.5, Tally{1 => 1})
                      6 => 1

o9 : Sequence
