val(c); c number

uniformizingParameter is set and c!=0

Example:
 
LIB "tropicalNewton.lib";
// poor man's polynomials over Puiseux series:
ring r = (0,t),x,dp;
setUniformizingParameter(t);
val(t2+t3);
==> 2
val(t^-2+t^-3);
==> -3
// poor man's polynomials over p-adic numbers:
ring s = 0,x,dp;
setUniformizingParameter(2);
val(12);
==> 2
val(1/12);
