<P>
 
The operator <em>groebner_walk</em> computes a <em>lex</em> basis 
from a given <em>graded</em> (or <em>weighted</em>) one.

<P>
where &lt;g&gt; is a <em>graded</em> basis (or <em>weighted</em> basis 
with a weight vector with one repeated element) of the polynomial ideal. 
<em>Groebner_walk</em> computes a sequence of monomial bases, each 
time lifting the full system to a complete basis. <em>Groebner_walk</em> 
should be called only in cases, where a normal <em>kex</em> computation 
would take too much computer time.

<P>
The operator 
<A HREF=r37_0354.html>torder</A> has to be called before in order to 
define the variable sequence and the term order mode of &lt;g&gt;. 
<P>
<P>
The variable 
<A HREF=r37_0371.html>gvarslast</A> is not set.

Do not call <em>groebner_walk</em> with <em>on</em>

<P>
<em>Groebner_walk</em>includes some overhead (such as e. g. 
computation with division). On the other hand, sometimes 
<em>groebner_walk</em> is faster than a direct <em>lex</em> computation.
