where &lt;bas&gt; is a 
<A HREF=r37_0381.html>groebner</A> basis in the current 
term order (see 
<A HREF=r37_0352.html>ideal parameters</A>). 
<em>gdimension</em> computes the dimension of the ideal 
spanned by the given basis and returns the dimension as an integer 
number. The Kredel-Weispfenning algorithm is used: the dimension 
is the length of the longest independent variable set,
