Let $R$ be a polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. Consider the Weyl algebra $D = R<dx_1,\ldots,dx_n>$, a prime ideal $P \subset R$ and a $P$-primary ideal. When this method is applied we obtain a finite list of differential operators $L_1,\ldots,L_m \in D$ such that $$ Q = \{ f \,\in\, R\, \mid\, L_i\, \bullet\, f\, \in P, \ \forall 1 \le i \le m \}. $$ We say that $\{L_1,\ldots,L_m\}$ is a set of Noetherian operators for the primary ideal $Q$. In the output of the algorithm we always have that $m$ (the number of Noetherian operators) is equal to the multiplicity of $Q$ over the prime ideal $P$.
