The Poly objects are in play:
f = Poly([2,3,4]) f Polynomial: 2*x**2 + 3*x + 4 f(10) 234 f.degree 2 f.deriv() Polynomial: 4*x + 3 df = f.deriv() df(10) 43 g = Poly([-1,0,0,2]) g Polynomial: -1*x**3 + 2 g(-1) 3 dg = g.deriv() dg Polynomial: -3*x**2 dg(-1) -3
Could this be extended to a symbolic math implementation? At least, could you implement compose, add, subtract, multiply, and divide methods so that f.compose(g) f.add(g) would work? -- Seth David Schoen <schoen@loyalty.org> | And do not say, I will study when I Temp. http://www.loyalty.org/~schoen/ | have leisure; for perhaps you will down: http://www.loyalty.org/ (CAF) | not have leisure. -- Pirke Avot 2:5
