How do I get the coefficient of 3*x*y in maxima? I tried coeff(3*x*y, x*y). But it only works on expressions of the form coefficient*var^n.

You can use `ratcoeff` – Eelvex May 02 '18 at 13:52

@Eelvex perhaps you submit that as an answer. FWIW I see that `ratcoeff` is an alias for `ratcoef`. – Robert Dodier May 03 '18 at 04:13
