| #### D.3.1.15 gauss_row Procedure from library `matrix.lib` (see matrix_lib). Usage: gauss_row(A [,e]); A matrix, e any type Return: - a matrix B, if called with one argument; B is the complete row- reduced lower-triangular normal form of A if A is constant, (resp. as far as this is possible if A is a polynomial matrix; no division by polynomials). - a list L of two matrices, if called with two arguments; L satisfies transpose(L[2])*A=transpose(L[1]) with L[1] the row-reduced form of A and L[2] the transformation matrix. Note: * This procedure just applies gauss_col to the transposed matrix. The transformation matrix is obtained by applying lift. This should be faster than the procedure rowred. * It should only be used with exact coefficient field (there is no pivoting and rounding error treatment). * Parameters are allowed. Hence, if the entries of A are parameters, B is the row-reduced form of A over the rational function field. Example:
    LIB "matrix.lib";
    ring r=(0,a,b),(A,B,C),dp;
    matrix m[6][8]=
    0, 0,  b*B, -A,-4C,2A,0, 0,
    2C,-4C,-A,B, 0,  B, 3B,AB,
    0,a*A,  0, 0, B,  0, 0, 0,
    0, 0,  0, 0, 2,  0, 0, 2A,
    0, 0,  0, 0, 0,  0, 2b, A,
    0, 0,  0, 0, 0,  0, 0, 2a;"";
    ==>
    print(gauss_row(m));"";
