Procedure from library tropical.lib (see tropical_lib).

Usage:
tDetropicalise(f); f poly or f list

Assume:
if f is of type poly then f is a linear polynomial with an integer constant term and positive integer coefficients as further coefficients;
if f is of type list then it is a list of polynomials of the type just described in before

Return:
poly, the detropicalisation of f over the field Q(t)

Note:
the output will be a term where the coeffiecient is a Laurent monomial in the variable t
