The input for this method is a module M over a multigraded polynomial ring whose local cohomology modules can be presented by monomial matrices. If an integer i is also included in the input, quasidegreesLocalCohomology(i,M) computes the quasidegree set of the i-th local cohomology module, supported at the maximal irrelevant ideal, of M. If an integer is excluded from the input, then quasidegreesLocalCohomology(M) computes the quasidegree set of Hm0(M)⊕…⊕Hmd-1(M). The quasidegrees of local cohomology are indexed by a list of pairs (v,F) where v is a vector and F is a list of vectors. The pair (v,F) indexes the plane v+spanCF. The quasidegree set of the local cohomology modules is the union of all such planes that the pairs (v,F) index.
If the input is an ideal I in a multigraded polynomial ring R, then the method executes for the module R/I where R is the ring of I.
A synonym for this function is qlc.
The first example computes the quasidegree set of Hm0(R/I)⊕Hm1(R/I) where I is the toric ideal associated to the matrix A.

The above example gives that the quasidegrees of the non-top local cohomology of M are (4,9), (3,9), (2,4), and (3,4). We can see that these all come from the first local cohomology module.

o7 = {{| 2 |, {}}, {| 3 |, {}}, {| 3 |, {}}, {| 4 |, {}}}

The next example shows a module whose quasidegree set of its second local cohomology module at the irrelevant ideal, is a line.

The above example gives that the quasidegrees of the second local cohomology module of M at the irrelevant ideal is the complex parameterized line (0,0,1)+t•(1,0,-2).
