Geometric Genus of Projective Curves - SINGULAR Example
LIB "normal.lib";
ring r = 32003,(x,y,z,w,u),dp;
ideal i = x2+y2+z2+w2+u2, x3+xy2+z3, z4+w4+u4;  // a curve in P^4
genus(i);
==>
17
To obtain more information on the performed computations, you should increase the printlevel:
printlevel=3;
genus(i);
==>
The ideal of the projective curve:

  J[1]=x2+y2+z2+w2+u2
  J[2]=xz2-z3+xw2+xu2
  J[3]=z4+w4+u4
  J[4]=y2z2+y2w2-xzw2+2z2w2-w4+y2u2-xzu2+2z2u2+2w2u2-u4
  J[5]=z3w2-2xw4+zw4+z3u2-2xw2u2-2xu4+zu4
  J[6]=xzw4+16001z2w4-16001w6+xzw2u2-16001w4u2+xzu4+16001z2u4-16001w2u4-16001u6
