PolynomialMod
PolynomialMod[poly, m] gives the polynomial poly reduced modulo m.
PolynomialMod[poly, 
, 
, ... 
] reduces modulo all of the 
.
PolynomialMod[poly, m] for integer m gives a polynomial in which all coefficients are reduced modulo m.
Example: PolynomialMod[3x^2 + 2x + 1, 2]
.
When m is a polynomial, PolynomialMod[poly, m] reduces poly by subtracting polynomial multiples of m, to give a result with minimal degree and leading coefficient.
PolynomialMod gives results according to a definite convention; other conventions could yield results differing by multiples of m.
Unlike PolynomialRemainder, PolynomialMod never performs divisions in generating its results.
