Publisher review:Manipulate simple polynomials package does simple polynomial manipulation: adding, multiplying, taking to powers and more. This package does simple polynomial manipulation: adding, multiplying, taking to powers, evaluating at a value, taking integrals and derivatives.
Nothing as sophisticated as Mathematica, but useful all the same. I find that I make lots of dumb errors in multiplying out polynomials by hand (when I don't have Mathematica at my disposal), and this little script helps prevent those errors.
I'm constantly making mistakes when I multiply out simple polynomials, and this program lets me evaluate, add, subtract, multiply, and take powers of simple polynomials. There are lots of limitations to the functionality here. All polynomials have to use 'x' as the dependent variable, and the syntax that you may use is fairly limited. Still, you can do some neat things like:>>> from Polynomial import *>>> Polynomial('x^2 5')**2-1x^4 10x^2 24>>> Polynomial('x^2 5')**2-'x'x^4 10x^2 - x 25
