A polynomial is a mathematical expression involving a sum of powers in one or more variables multiplied by coefficients.

A polynomial is a mathematical expression involving a sum of powers in one or more variables multiplied by coefficients. A polynomial in one variable (i.e., a univariate polynomial) with constant coefficients is given by a_n x^n + ... + a_2 x^2 + a_1 x + a_0.
