documented, exercised by the test suite and/or worked examples, with no known limitations recorded.

Description

FLINT`Resultant[a, b, x] gives the resultant of the polynomials a and b eliminating the variable x, over the rationals, computed directly via FLINT (fmpq_mpoly_resultant). Other variables are treated as coefficients. Returns unevaluated if out of scope.
