coeffs vs coefficients: we should choose one
coeff(s/icicients): as subtype of AbstractVector: allow e.g. findall(iszero, coeffs(f)) (more useful for univariates)
always an iterator? sometimes an iterator sometimes a Vector
terms, monomials also for univariates?
QadicField does not return the gen
ResidueField does not (always) allow cache = true/false
- binom/ binomial (I intend to add more if I find them) (all are breaking across a range of projects)

Is this done with the big renaming?

thofma commented 1 year ago

No, it was just the big type renaming so far.
