                    <Description>
                        <A>L</A> contains the list of coefficients of a 
                        single linear equation. This function
                        gives a minimal generator 
                        of the affine semigroup of nonnegative solutions of this equation
                        with the first coordinate equal to one (see <Cite Key="MR1283022" />).
                        Returns <C>fail</C> if no solution exists.

                    <Description>
                        <A>S</A> is a numerical semigroup.
                        
                        The output is a list of lists with two elements. Each list of two elements represents
                        a relation between the minimal generators of the numerical semigroup. If 
                        <M> \{ \{x_1,y_1\},\ldots,\{x_k,y_k\}\} </M> is the output
                        and <M> \{m_1,\ldots,m_n\} </M> is the minimal system of generators 
                        of the numerical semigroup, then
                        <M> \{x_i,y_i\}=\{\{a_{i_1},\ldots,a_{i_n}\},\{b_{i_1},\ldots,b_{i_n}\}\}</M>
                        and <M> a_{i_1}m_1+\cdots+a_{i_n}m_n= b_{i_1}m_1+ \cdots +b_{i_n}m_n.</M>
                        <P/>
                        
                        Any other relation among the minimal generators of the semigroup can be deduced from 
                        the ones given in the output.
