D.4.4.4 cardGroup

Procedure from library cisimplicial.lib (see cisimplicial_lib).

Usage:
cardGroup(A[,n]); A is a matrix with integral coefficients.

Return:
It returns a bigint. If we denote by ZA the group generated by the columns of the matrix A, then it returns the number of elements of the group of Z^m / ZA, where m = number of rows of A. If a second parameter n is introduced, it will
only consider the first n columns of A. It returns 0 if Z^m / ZA is infinite; this is, when rank ZA < m.

Example:
