wittTupleToRing -- Converts an element of a Witt ring to an element of its explicit presentation.

Description

Given a WittRingElement w of W (i.e., a tuple) this returns the corresponding element of the explicit presentation of W (i.e., an element of explicit(W))

i1 : R = ZZ/5[x]

o1 = R

o1 : PolynomialRing
i2 : w = witt{x,x^5+x^4}

          5    4
o2 = {x, x  + x }

o2 : WittRingElement
i3 : wittTupleToRing w

o3 = 6T         + T
       {0, {1}}    {1, {4}}

                                                                                     ZZ[T        , T        , T        , T        , T        ]
