Polynomials

Reading time: 1min

Polynomials are simpler types of functions. However, they're so important that they have their own naming system. Because you can divide polynomials, they share divisibility commands with the Arithmetic section. Here you'll also find commands for complex numbers. Complex numbers were invented as a way to solve all the polynomials.

Polynomials
	The degree of a polynomial
	How many terms does a polynomial has.
	This is one term from a polynomial. The term number is the second parameter. The terms are ordered by descending grades. Therefore, term number 1 is always the leading term.
	The content of a polynomial. That is, gcd of their coefficients.
	Rearrange a polynomial with multiple variables arranged around the variable in the second parameter.
	Finds the roots of a polynomial or, in other words, the values of x that make it 0.

The command roots(p) does the same as solve(p=0) or apply the Calc action to p=0, but the results are shown in different forms. See the example.
You can also find roots in the Complex field if you use as a second parameter the C from the Logic and sets section. See the example.
