multidimensionalMatrix(RingElement) -- make a multidimensional matrix from a multilinear form

Function: multidimensionalMatrix
Usage:

multidimensionalMatrix F
Inputs:
- F, a ring element, a homogeneous polynomial of multidegree $(1,\ldots,1)$ in a polynomial ring $R$ with the $\mathbb{Z}^n$-grading where the degree of each variable is a standard basis vector; in other words, $R$ is the homogeneous coordinate ring of a product of $n$ projective spaces.
Outputs:
- a multidimensional matrix, the $n$-dimensional matrix having as entries the coefficients of $F$.

Description

If $F$ is a multilinear form on $\mathbb{P}^{k_1}\times\mathbb{P}^{k_2}\times\cdots\times\mathbb{P}^{k_n}$, then the shape of the corresponding matrix is $(k_1+1)\times(k_2+1)\times\cdots\times(k_n+1)$. You can use permute to rearrange the dimensions.

The inverse operation can be obtained using the command "!" as follows:

i4 : F' = M!
