getDegNModule -- Extract the degree-n strand of a graded algebra as a module over its degree-zero piece

Usage:

MN = getDegNModule(N, R, A)
Inputs:
- N, an integer, the homological degree to extract
- R, a ring, the degree-zero piece of A, i.e.\ A_0
- A, a ring, a graded R-algebra with A_0 = R
Outputs:
- MN, a module, the degree-N component of A, presented as an R-module

Description

Given a graded algebra A over R with A_0 = R, the strand A_N is an R-module. This function returns that strand with a minimal presentation by monomials of internal degree N modulo the relations of A. It is most often applied to a homology algebra HA = HH A together with its degree-zero subring HA_0 = zerothHomology A.
