#### D.2.5.5 show

Procedure from library `inout.lib` (see inout_lib).

Usage:
  show(id); id any object of basering or of type ring/qring
  show(R,s); R=ring, s=string (s = name of an object belonging to R)

Display:
  display id/s in a compact format together with some information

Return:
  no return value

Note:
  objects of type string, int, intvec, intmat belong to any ring. id may be a ring or a qring. In this case the minimal polynomial is displayed, and, for a qring, also the defining ideal.
  id may be of type list but the list must not contain a ring.
  show(R,s) does not work inside a procedure!

Example:

    LIB "inout.lib";
    ring r;
    show(r);
    ==> // ring: (32003),(x,y,z),(dp(3),C);
    ==> // minpoly = 0
    ==> // objects belonging to this ring:
    ideal i=x^3+y^5-6*z^3,xy,x3-y2;
    show(i,3);            // introduce 3 space tabs before information
    ==>    // ideal, 3 generator(s)
    ==> y5+x3-6z3,
    ==> xy,
    ==> x3-y2
    vector v=x*gen(1)+y*gen(3);
    module m=v,2*v+gen(4);
    list L = i,v,m;
    show(L);
    ==> // list, 3 element(s):
    ==> [1]:
    ==>    // ideal, 3 generator(s)
    ==> y5+x3-6z3,
    ==> xy,
    ==> x3-y2
    ==> [2]:
    ==>    // vector
    ==> [x,0,y]
    ==> [3]:
    ==>    // module, 2 generator(s)
    ==> [x,0,y]
    ==> [2x,0,2y,1]
    ring S=(0,T),(a,b,c,d),ws(1,2,3,4);
    minpoly = T^2+1;
    ideal i=a2+b,c2+T^2*d2; i=std(i);
    qring Q=i;
    show(Q);
    ==> // ring: (0,T),(a,b,c,d),(ws(1,2,3,4),C);
    ==> // minpoly = (T2+1)
    ==> // quotient ring from ideal:
    ==> _[1]=a2+b
    ==> _[2]=c2-d2
    ==> // objects belonging to this ring:
    map F=r,a2,b^2,3*c3;
    show(F);
    ==> // i-th variable of preimage ring is mapped to @map[i]
    ==> // @map map  from r
    ==> @map[1]=a2
    ==> @map[2]=b2
    ==> @map[3]=3*c3
    // Apply 'show' to i (which does not belong to the basering) by typing
    // ring r; ideal i=xy,x3-y2; ring Q; show(r,"i");
