#### D.4.26.3 sagbi

Procedure from library `sagbi.lib` (see sagbi_lib).

Usage:
  sagbi(A[, tr, mt]); A ideal, tr, mt optional integers

Return:
  ideal, a SAGBI basis for A

Assume:
  basering is not a qring

Purpose:
  Computes a SAGBI basis for the subalgebra given by the generators in A.

          The optional argument tr=tailred determines whether tail reduction will be performed.
           - If (tailred=0), no tail reduction is performed,
           - If (tailred<>0), tail reduction is performed.
           The other optional argument meth determines which method is
               used for Groebner basis computations.
               - If mt=0 (default), the procedure std is used.
               - If mt=1, the procedure slimgb is used.

Example:

    LIB "sagbi.lib";
    ring r= 0,(x,y,z),dp;
    ideal A=x2,y2,xy+y;
    //Default call, no tail-reduction is done.
    sagbi(A);
    ==> _[1]=x2
    ==> _[2]=y2
    ==> _[3]=xy+y
    ==> _[4]=xy2+1/2y2
    //---------------------------------------------
    //Call with tail-reduction and method specified.
    sagbi(A,1,0);
    ==> _[1]=x2
    ==> _[2]=y2
    ==> _[3]=xy+y
    ==> _[4]=xy2
