                    Partial fractions

                    Reading time: 1min

                    Partial fraction expansion is used to change a rational fraction in the form , where f and g are polynomials, into an expression of the form , where gj(x) are polynomials that are factors of g(x).

                    Syntax

                    partial_fractions(Fraction)
                    
                    partial_fractions(Fraction, Ring)
                    

                    Description

                    Given a fraction of polynomials, returns a list L whose elements are lists L1, ..., Lk. The list Lj has as elements the polynomials fj(x) and gj(x).

                    Given a fraction of polynomials and a ring, returns a list L whose elements are lists L1, ..., Lk. The list Lj has as elements the polynomials fj(x) and gj(x). The decomposition is done over the specified ring.
