Key

(toList, BasicList)
(toList, Set)
Headline
create a list
Usage
toList A
Inputs
A:
a @TO Set@, or a @TO BasicList@ such as a @TO Sequence@
Outputs
L:List
a list whose elements are the elements of {\tt A}
Description
Example
A = set(3,7,9,6)
toList A
Text
The command {\tt toList 1..9} will throw an error, because {\tt toList}
comes before @TO".."@ in Macaulay2's order of operations. To create a list
from a range, use {\tt toList (1..9)} instead.
Example
toList (1..9)
Text
Converting between list types may change the order of the elements in
unexpected ways.
Example
toList set {4,5,13}
