CPolynomial:MaxOrder

The MaxOrder method returns the order of the maximum order coefficient that has been initialized.

order = CPolynomial:MaxOrder()

On success, this method returns order as an integer number.

On failure, this method returns 0.

Suppose that the CPolynomial P contains 3 coefficients with the highest order being 5. This script returns the maximum order defined:

P = new_polynomial()	-- create a CPolynomial
P:Set( 0, 5.5)	-- set coef[0]
P:Set( 1, 0.144)	-- set coef[1]
P:Set( 5, -0.15221e-12)	-- set coef[5]
nMax = P:MaxOrder()	-- get the maximum defined order
Printf("MaxOrder = %d", nMax)	-- result: MaxOrder = 5
