function deg=degree(p,y,e)
%DEGREE Polynomial degree
%
% DEG = DEGREE(p,x,e)
%
% p : SDPVAR object.
% x : Degree w.r.t linear SDPVAR objects, can be [].


% e : If e=1, returns degree of each element in p
%
% Examples
% x1 = sdpvar(1,1);x2 = sdpvar(1,1);
% p = [x1;x1*x2+x2^2];
%
% degree(p) returns 2
%
% degree(p,x1) returns 1
%
% degree(p,[x1 x2]) returns [1 2]
%
% degree(p,[x1 x2],1) returns [1 0;1 2]
%
% degree(p,[],1) returns [1;3]
