polynomial
A set of functions for some common polynomials have been provided, they can be
found in CommonPolynomials.
The most important functions are:
as.polynomial to turn an object into a polynomial.
coef, coef<-,
exponents and exponents<- for extracting and
replacing polynomial coefficients and exponents.
reduce for simplifying polynomials.
as.function to turn a polynomial into
a function.
plot for visualizing a polynomial.
Arithmetic is defined for polynomials (unary and binary + and -,
*, /, ^), but not in the same way as the base arithmetic
operators.
