initialIdeals -- calls gfan and returns the list of initial ideals

Synopsis

Description

Given an ideal I in M2, this function calls gfan and returns the list of initial ideals of I.
i1 : R = QQ[a,b];
i2 : I = ideal(a^2+b^2,a*b);

o2 : Ideal of R
i3 : initialIdeals(I)  
LP algorithm being used: "cddgmp".
