<div><h1>indices -- indices of a polynomial; also components for a direct sum</h1>
<div class="single"><h2>Description</h2>
<div><tt>indices</tt> has two uses in Macaulay2: indices of a direct sum, or indices of a polynomial. Additionally, the symbol is used as a key in a direct sum under which to store a list of the preferred keys used to index the components of the direct sum.</div>
