When calling randomPoints, and functions that call it, with a BruteForce strategy strategy, this denotes the number of trials for brute force point checking. When calling it with a LinearIntersection strategy, this controls how many linear spaces are created.
i1 : R = ZZ/11[x,y,z]; |
i2 : I = ideal(x,y); o2 : Ideal of R |
i3 : randomPoints(I, PointCheckAttempts=>1) o3 = {{0, 0, 1}} o3 : List |
i4 : randomPoints(I, PointCheckAttempts=>1000) o4 = {{0, 0, 1}} o4 : List |
The object PointCheckAttempts is a symbol.
