We define the degree of a rational function, with values in ℤ:
intDegree is the degree of a rational function, defined as the difference between the
natDegree of its numerator and the natDegree of its denominator. In particular,
intDegree 0 = 0.
intDegree x is the degree of the rational function x, defined as the difference between
the natDegree of its numerator and the natDegree of its denominator. In particular,
intDegree 0 = 0.
