Hello,
I want to construct the corresponding variable list to a
CoefficientList[poly, {var1, var2, var3,...}].
The following code does the work:
---------------------------------------------------------
In[472]:=
vl = {x, y, z}
dims = {2, 3, 2}
r = Dimensions[dims]
Out[472]=
{x,y,z}
Out[473]=
{2,3,2}
Out[474]=
{3}
In[475]:=
Table[vl[[1]]^a*vl[[2]]^b*
vl[[3]]^c, {a, 0,
dims[[1]] - 1},
{b, 0, dims[[2]] - 1},
{c, 0, dims[[3]] - 1}]
Out[475]=
\!\({{{1, z}, {y, y\ z}, {y\^2, y\^2\ z}}, {{x, x\
z}, {x\ y, x\ y\ z}, {x\ y\^2, x\ y\^2\ z}}}\)
-----------------------------------------------------------
To do the job automated (so that a different variable list vl can be
used easily, as well as the output of Dimensions[CoefficientList[...]]
can be used as dims, for veriable polynomials and variables) I tried
------------------------------------------------------------
In[477]:=
body = Product[vl[[k]]^i[k],
{k, 1, Dimensions[vl][[1]]}]
iterator = Table[{i[ind], 0,
dims[[ind]] - 1},
{ind, 1, r[[1]]}]
Table[body, Sequence @@ iterator]
Out[477]=
x^i[1]*y^i[2]*z^i[3]
Out[478]=
{{i[1], 0, 1}, {i[2], 0, 2},
{i[3], 0, 1}}
From In[481]:=
Table::"itform":"Argument \!\(Sequence @@ iterator\) at position \!\(2\)
does \
not have the correct form for an iterator. \!\(\*ButtonBox[\"Mehrâ?¦\", \
ButtonStyle->\"RefGuideLinkText\", ButtonFrame->None, \
ButtonData:>\"General::itform\"]\)"
---------------------------------------------------------------
which does not work because in this case, because Sequence does not
strip the outer List brackets, while using it as the only argument to
some function, e.g.
---------------------------------------------------------------
In[480]:=
f[Sequence @@ iterator]
Out[480]=
f[{i[1], 0, 1}, {i[2], 0, 2},
{i[3], 0, 1}]
---------------------------------------------------------------
does work.
Any help regarding using Sequence in a function accepting more than just
one argument is appreciated!
Thank you,
Martin
