  | ### 5.1.3 bareiss qcindex Gauss `Syntax:` `bareiss (` module_expression `)` `bareiss (` matrix_expression `)` `bareiss (` module_expression`,` int_expression`,` int_expression `)` `bareiss (` matrix_expression`,` int_expression`,` int_expression `)` `Type:` list of module and intvec `Purpose:` applies the sparse Gauss-Bareiss algorithm (see References, Lee and Saunders) to a module (or with type conversion to a matrix) with an 'optimal' pivot strategy. The vectors of the module are the columns of the matrix, hence elimination takes place w.r.t. rows. With only one parameter a complete elimination is done. Result is a list: the first entry is a module with a minimal independent set of vectors (as a matrix lower triangular), the second entry an intvec with the permutation of the rows w.r.t. the original matrix, that is, a k at position l indicates that row k was carried over to the row l. The further parameters control the algorithm. `bareiss(M,i,j)` does not attempt to diagonalize the last i rows in the elimination procedure and stops computing when the remaining number of vectors (columns) to reduce is at most j. `Example:`
        ring r=0,(x,y,z),(c,dp);
        module mm;
        // ** generation of the module mm **
        int d=7;
        int b=2;
        int db=d-b;
        int i;
        for(i=d;i>0;i--){ mm[i]=3*x*gen(i); }
        for(i=db;i;i--){ mm[i]=mm[i]+7*y*gen(i+b); }
        for(i=d;i>db;i--){ mm[i]=mm[i]+7*y*gen(i-db); }
        for(i=d;i>b;i--){ mm[i]=mm[i]+11*z*gen(i-b); }
        for(i=b;i;i--){ mm[i]=mm[i]+11*z*gen(i+db); }
        // ** the generating matrix of mm **
        print(mm);
