An overview
In Macaulay2, once a ring (see
rings) is defined, ideals are constructed in the usual way by giving a set of generators.
For those operations where we consider an ideal as a module, such as computing Hilbert functions and polynomials, syzygies, free resolutions, see
modules.
For additional common operations and a comprehensive list of all routines in Macaulay2 which return or use ideals, see
Ideal.
