  2. Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic...

    This capacity assumes that the generator polynomial is the product of + and a primitive polynomial of degree since all primitive polynomials except + have an odd number of non-zero coefficients. All burst errors of length n {\displaystyle n} will be detected by any polynomial of degree n {\displaystyle n} or greater which has a non-zero x 0 ...

  3. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    This method works well for cubic and quartic equations, but Lagrange did not succeed in applying it to a quintic equation, because it requires solving a resolvent polynomial of degree at least six. [ 37 ] [ 38 ] [ 39 ] Apart from the fact that nobody had previously succeeded, this was the first indication of the non-existence of an algebraic ...

    In this example, we shall encode 14 bits of message with a 3-bit CRC, with a polynomial x 3 + x + 1. The polynomial is written in binary as the coefficients; a 3rd-degree polynomial has 4 coefficients (1x 3 + 0x 2 + 1x + 1). In this case, the coefficients are 1, 0, 1 and 1.

  5. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    In mathematics, a cubic function is a function of the form () = + + +, that is, a polynomial function of degree three. In many texts, the coefficients a , b , c , and d are supposed to be real numbers , and the function is considered as a real function that maps real numbers to real numbers or as a complex function that maps complex numbers to ...

  6. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    Polynomials of degree one, two or three are respectively linear polynomials, quadratic polynomials and cubic polynomials. [8] For higher degrees, the specific names are not commonly used, although quartic polynomial (for degree four) and quintic polynomial (for degree five) are sometimes used. The names for the degrees may be applied to the ...

  7. Vieta's formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta's_formulas

    Vieta's formulas can be proved by considering the equality + + + + = () (which is true since ,, …, are all the roots of this polynomial), expanding the products in the right-hand side, and equating the coefficients of each power of between the two members of the equation.

  8. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horner's_method

    In mathematics and computer science, Horner's method (or Horner's scheme) is an algorithm for polynomial evaluation.Although named after William George Horner, this method is much older, as it has been attributed to Joseph-Louis Lagrange by Horner himself, and can be traced back many hundreds of years to Chinese and Persian mathematicians. [1]

  9. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Polynomial curves fitting points generated with a sine function. The black dotted line is the "true" data, the red line is a first degree polynomial, the green line is second degree, the orange line is third degree and the blue line is fourth degree. The first degree polynomial equation = + is a line with slope a. A line will connect any two ...
