Let $C$ be a non-hyperelliptic algebraic curve. It is known that its canonical image is the intersection of the quadrics that contain it, except when $C$ is trigonal (that is, it has a linear system of degree 3 and dimension 1) or isomorphic to a plane quintic (genus 6). In this context, we present a method to decide whether a given algebraic curve is trigonal, and in the affirmative case to compute a map from $C$ to the projective line whose fibers cut out the linear system.
