| #### D.4.11.1 modNormal Procedure from library `modnormal.lib` (see modnormal_lib). Usage: modNormal(I, n [,options]); I = prime ideal, n = positive integer, options = list of options. Optional parameters in list options (can be entered in any order): noVerificication: do not verify the result. printTimings: print timings. int ncores: number of cores to be used (default = 1). Assume: I is a prime ideal (the algorithm will also work for radical ideals as long as the normal command does not detect that the ideal under consideration is not prime). Return: a list of an ideal U and a universal denominator d such that U/d is the normalization. Remarks: We use the algorithm given in [1] to compute the normalization of A = R/I where R is the basering. We apply the algorithm for n primes at a time until the result lifted to the rationals is correct modulo one additional prime. Depending on whether the option noVerificication is used or not, the result is returned as a probabilistic result or verified over the rationals. The normalization of A is represented as an R-module by returning a list of U and d, where U is an ideal of A and d is an element of A such that U/d is the normalization of A. In fact, U and d are returned as an ideal and a polynomial of the base ring R. Example:
    LIB "modnormal.lib";
    ring R = 0,(x,y,z),dp;
    int k = 4;
    poly f = (x^(k+1)+y^(k+1)+z^(k+1))^2-4*(x^(k+1)*y^(k+1)+y^(k+1)*z^(k+1)+z^(k+1)*x^(k+1));
    f = subst(f,z,3x-2y+1);
    ring S = 0,(x,y),dp;
    poly f = imap(R,f);
    ideal i = f;
    list L = modNormal(i,1,"noVerification");
