Re: Best way to determine horizontal plane ℤ³ that contains most vectors of given vector of vectrs

[Gareth Ma <grhkm21@gmail.com>]

Note your code depends on max(L) - min(L), which is probably not what you want?

You can replace your C with matreduce(L).

I have a vector of vectors in ℤ³ (result of qfminim()) and want to determine the z coordinate with maximal vectors in that plane.

The good thing with PARI/GP is, that I most times get what I want somehow, like here:

    L=[v[3]|v<-S];
    C=[[l,#[v|v<-S,v[3]==l]]|l<-[vecmin(L)..vecmax(L)]];
    mx=vecsort(C,2)[#C][1];
    P=[(Q*v)~|v<-S,v[3]==mx];

But sorting and iteration over all possible vecmin..vecmax values looks not nice.
Is there a more intuitive way to set P to all vectors in plane with maximal vectors?
