+\section{SageMath code}
+
+We have written a SageMath function allowing us to define the Delta Complex associated to the complement of a projective Fermat hypersurface of degree $d$ in $\PP^n$.
+
+The code for the function is:
+\begin{python}
+def DeltaComplex_hypersurface(n,d):
+    resdic = [{tuple(i*[0]+[1] + (n-i)*[0]): None for i in range(n+1) }]+ [{} for i in range(n)]
+
+    for nzerosi in range(n+1): 
+        for t in Tuples(range(d+1),n-nzerosi ):
+            T = nzerosi*[0] + [1] + list(t)
+            dimT = len(T) - T.count(0) - 2
+            if dimT >= 0:
+                caras = []
+                for i in range(n+1):
+                    if T[i] != 0:
+                        CT = copy(T)
+                        CT[i] = 0
+                        canonicalize(CT)
+                        caras.append(tuple(CT))
+                resdic[dimT+1][tuple(T)] = caras
+    
+    DC = [[tuple() for _ in range(n+1)]]
+    for i in range(1,n+1): 
+        lis = []
+        for p,v in resdic[i].items():
+            lisp = []
+            for s in v:
+                lisp.append(list(resdic[i-1].keys()).index(s))
+            lis.append(lisp)
+        DC.append(lis)
+    
+    dc=DeltaComplex(DC) 
+    return dc
+\end{python}
+
+This function uses an auxiliary function, named $canonicalize$ in the code. 
+$canonicalize$ is used to identify the simplices in the projective space. The code to this function is:
+\begin{python}
+def canonicalize(t):  
+    v = next(filter(lambda a : a != 0, t))
+    correct = v - 1
+    for i in range(len(t)):
+        if t[i] != 0:
+            t[i] -= correct
+            if t[i] <= 0:
+                t[i] += d
+\end{python}
+
+In particular this auxiliary function takes as input a face to a simplex and outputs its canonical representative in the projective space. We understand as canonical representative the element in the same projective class such that the first nonzero coordinate is equal to $1$.
+
+\begin{example}{}
+We now present an example of how to compute the $\Delta$-complex of a Fermat's hypersurface.
+
+We take
+\begin{python}
+n = 4
+d = 6
+\end{python}
+
+This is, we want to compute the $\Delta$-complex of the complement of the curve
+\begin{equation}
+ C=\{[x_0:x_1:x_2:x_3:x_4]\in\CC\PP^4 | x_0^6+x_1^6+x_2^6+x_3^6+x_4^6+=0]\}
+\end{equation}
+
+Running the code above we get:
+\begin{python}
+Delta_Complex = DeltaComplex_hypersurface(4,6)
+ -> Delta complex with 5 vertices and 2802 simplices
+\end{python}
+\end{example}
