Here we demonstrate the PolyMake wrappers Polytope and SimplicialComplex.

To use the Polytope domain we need to say

fricas
)lib STRCNV READFILE POLYTOPE
StringConversions is now explicitly exposed in frame initial StringConversions will be automatically loaded when needed from /var/aw/var/LatexWiki/STRCNV.NRLIB/STRCNV ReadFile is now explicitly exposed in frame initial ReadFile will be automatically loaded when needed from /var/aw/var/LatexWiki/READFILE.NRLIB/READFILE Polytope is now explicitly exposed in frame initial Polytope will be automatically loaded when needed from /var/aw/var/LatexWiki/POLYTOPE.NRLIB/POLYTOPE

To create a cube of dimension 4 and look at its h-vector, we say

fricas
c5 := cube 5

\label{eq1}\verb#"cube5"#(1)
Type: Polytope
fricas
h5 := hVector c5
>> Error detected within library code: End of file

The idea is to factor the h-polynomial, for example:

fricas
factor reduce(+, [h5.(i+1) * t^i for i in 0..#h5-1])
There are 2 exposed and 2 unexposed library operations named # having 1 argument(s) but none was determined to be applicable. Use HyperDoc Browse, or issue )display op # to learn more about the available operations. Perhaps package-calling the operation or using coercions on the arguments will allow you to apply the operation.
Cannot find a definition or applicable library operation named # with argument type(s) Variable(h5)
Perhaps you should use "@" to indicate the required return type, or "$" to specify which version of the function you need.

Of course, the cube is simple:

fricas
simple c5

Here are its vertices:

fricas
vertices c5
>> Error detected within library code: End of file

Here is a random polytope with 6 vertices on the 3-dimensional sphere

fricas
r5 := randSphere(3, 6)

\label{eq2}\verb#"randsphere36"#(2)
Type: Polytope

Now vertices spits out a matrix containing the coordinates of the vertices of the polytope:

fricas
vertices r5
>> Error detected within library code: End of file
