Polynomial algorithms are at the core of classical "computer algebra". Incorporating methods that span from antiquity to the latest cutting-edge research at Wolfram Research, ...

PolynomialRemainder[p, q, x] gives the remainder from dividing p by q, treated as polynomials in x.

x*y*z, x*y*z, or x y z represents a product of terms.

You can think of an expression like f[x] as being formed by applying an operator f to the expression x. You can think of an expression like f[g[x]] as the result of composing ...

FactorTermsList[poly] gives a list in which the first element is the overall numerical factor in poly, and the second element is the polynomial with the overall factor ...

FactorTerms[poly] pulls out any overall numerical factor in poly. FactorTerms[poly, x] pulls out any overall factor in poly that does not depend on x. FactorTerms[poly, {x_1, ...

PolynomialQuotientRemainder[p, q, x] gives a list of the quotient and remainder of p and q, treated as polynomials in x.

 

Mathematica's symbolic character allows it to handle generalized functions or "distributions" as a direct extension of classical mathematical functions, and to represent ...
