  | ### 7.3.24 ringlist (plural) `Syntax:` `ringlist (` ring_expression `)` `ringlist (` qring_expression `)` `Type:` list `Purpose:` decomposes a ring/qring into a list of 6 (or 4 in the commutative case) components. The first 4 components are common both for the commutative and for the non-commutative cases, the 5th and the 6th appear only in the non-commutative case. upper triangle square matrix with nonzero upper triangle, containing structural coefficients of a G-algebra (this corresponds to the matrix C from the definition of G-algebras) square matrix, containing structural polynomials of a G-algebra (this corresponds to the matrix D from the definition of G-algebras) `Note:` After modifying a list acquired with `ringlist`, one can construct a corresponding ring with `ring(list)`. `Example:`
      // consider the quantized Weyl algebra
      ring r = (0,q),(x,d),Dp;
      def RS=nc_algebra(q,1);
