Polynomial synthetic division
func extended_synthetic_division(dividend, divisor) {
var end = divisor.end
var out = dividend.clone
var normalizer = divisor[0]
for i in ^(dividend.len - end) {
out[i] /= normalizer
var coef = out[i]
if (coef != 0) {
for j in (1 .. end) {
out[i+j] += -(divisor[j] * coef)
}
}
}
var remainder = out.splice(-end)
var quotient = out
return(quotient, remainder)
}
var (n, d) = ([1, -12, 0, -42], [1, -3])
print(" %s / %s =" % (n, d))
print(" %s remainder %s\n" % extended_synthetic_division(n, d))
Output:
[1, -12, 0, -42] / [1, -3] = [1, -9, -27] remainder [-123]
