   "This package implements basic operations on monomials, including
various monomial orders.

DATA STRUCTURES: Conceptually, monomials can be represented as lists:

        monom: (n1 n2 ... nk) where ni are non-negative integers

However, lists may be implemented as other sequence types, so the
flexibility to change the representation should be maintained in the
code to use general operations on sequences whenever possible. The
optimization for the actual representation should be left to
declarations and the compiler.

EXAMPLES: Suppose that variables are x and y. Then

        Monom x*y^2 ---> (1 2) "))
