M2 Script to understand the problem. You get Macaulay 2 from http://www.math.uiuc.edu/Macaulay2/.

Matlab-code, The matlab code first generates c-code for building the matrices, this c-code is then compiled. For this to work you need Matlab setup so that you have both a working symbolic-toolbox and a compiler.

Matlab with mexglx, same as above but after the code generation has been done and compiled on a Linux box. It also contains all the mex-files as m-files so that it will run (slowly) even if the mex is not compiled for your machine.
