When f is a rational function whose denominator is a product of binomials of the form 1−x1^a1 ··· xd^ad, we use a classical combinatorial method of Elliott of 1903 further developed in the Ω-calculus (or Partition Analysis) of MacMahon in 1916 to compute the generating function X M(f;x1, ..., xd ) = ∑ m(λ)x1^λ1 ··· xd^λd, λ = (λ1, ..., λd). M is a rational function with denominator of a similar form as f.
