Overview of the MatrixPolynomialAlgebra Package

 Calling Sequence MatrixPolynomialAlgebra[command](arguments) command(arguments)

Description

 • The MatrixPolynomialAlgebra package provides a set of tools for the algebraic manipulation of matrices of polynomials.
 • The tools in the package include support for four basic types of manipulations of matrices of polynomials:
 - Polynomial operations, such as degrees and coefficients.
 - Algebraic operations, such as left and right division, greatest common divisors, and least common multiple.
 - Special forms of matrices of polynomials, such as normal forms and reduced forms.
 - Finding bases (as mathematical modules) for the kernel of a matrix of polynomials and for an order basis of a matrix of polynomials.
 • Each command in the MatrixPolynomialAlgebra package can be accessed by using either the long form or the short form of the command name in the command calling sequence.
 As the underlying implementation of the MatrixPolynomialAlgebra package is a module, it is also possible to use the form MatrixPolynomialAlgebra:-command to access a command from the package. For more information,  see Module Members.
