<h3>
Description:
</h3>
Let a be defined with respect to the R-order o
in F/k(T) of rank n with basis
b_1, &hellip; ,b_n, R being k[T] or the valuation ring
of the degree valuation of k(T).
For a = \sum_{i=1}^n c_i b_i/d, c_i,d\in
R coprime, (1 &lt;=  i &lt;=  n), the function
returns L:=[[c_1, &hellip; ,c_n],d].

<h3>
Example:
</h3>
Decompose an element into a list:
<pre>

kash> AlffInit(FF(5,2));
"Defining global variables: k, w, kT, kTf, kTy, T, y, AlffGlobals"
kash> AlffOrders(y^3+T^4+1);
"Defining global variables: F, o, oi, one"
kash> a := AlffElt(o, [0, 1, 0]) / T^7;
[ 0, 1, 0 ] / T^7
kash> AlffEltToList(a);
> [ [ 0, 1, 0 ], T^7 ]

</pre>
