Group Method for Arithmetic Operators with
Polynomials
Usage
Ops.polynomial(e1, e2)
Arguments
e1
|
A polynomial
|
e2
|
A polynomial
|
Description
Allows arithmetic operators to be used for polynomial calculations, such
as addition, multiplication, division, etc.
Most operations are as anticipated, however the two operators "/" and
"%/%" have identical results.
Value
A polynomial got by performing the operation on the two arguments.

Examples
print(p <- polynomial(c(1,2,1))) ## 1 + 2*x + x^2
r <- poly.from.zeros(-1:1)
r
## -1*x + x^3
pr <- (r - 2 * p)^2
pr
## 4 + 20*x + 33*x^2 + 16*x^3 - 6*x^4 - 4*x^5 + x^6
