Feature #571
CmpAbs for RingElem
Description
We have the fn CmpAbs for BigInt and BigRat.
Mario would like it also for RingElem (when it is an ordered domain).
History

Updated by John Abbott almost 10 years ago
Updated by The current impl works only for int/BigInt. Not for BigRat

Updated by Make sense.
We should also do the same (when someone asks ;-) for other functions which can be extended from BigInt to RingElem.
... even though the rule "does on RingElem(ZZ,a) what does on BigInt(a)" cannot be applied in total generality as we chose for different meanings of a/b (but this case would require a Euclidean domain, which is a more complicated structure than an ordered ring)
