Polynomials in Python

Question

How do I find polynomials in Python? Is there any built-in function?

Answer 1

You can easily find polynomials of any degree using the poly1d() function present in NumPy.

EXAMPLE1:

from numpy import poly1d
a = poly1d([3,4])
print(a)

OUTPUT:

3 x + 4

EXAMPLE2:

a = poly1d([3,4,5,6])
print(a)

OUTPUT:

   3     2
3 x + 4 x + 5 x + 6
