I need to help,I couldnt find wrong

/////////////////////// DIVISION FUNCTION ////////////////////
void div ( int pol1[] , int pol1p[] , int pol2[] , int pol2p[])

printf("%dX^%d+",*(po5+i),i);
}



when first poly is like 3X^2 and second poly is like 1X its work
right, but it divides other poly wrongly, I couldnt find,helppp me
pleaseee

Is C actually the most appropriate tool for what he's trying to do?

(I've been working with C for over 10 years and never done any
polynomial manipulation)

Might there be better alternatives?

 

[emre esirik(hacettepe computer science and enginee]

its my homework, I am studying at hacettepe university and we are
learning C language for a mounth and this is my 5.homework which I
have to do coding for poly :
„h Addition
„h Subtraction
„h Multiplication
„h Division
„h Derivation
„h Integration

-------The input will be in the following format:
ADD 3X^2+4X^1+7 2X^2+5
SUB 3X^2+4X+7 2X+5
DIV 3X^2+4X+7 X+3
MUL 3X^2+4X+7 X+3
DER 3X^4+4X^2+5X+7
INT 3X^2+4X+7

so I just trying to solve poly division, couldnt help me?

It's an entirely appropriate tool, yes. Polynomial manipulation is just a
series of operations on array members. For example, I would do simple
integration something like this (and please understand that this is
off-the-cuff untested code):

struct term_
{
double factor;
double power;
};

typedef struct term_ term;

int integrate(term *t, size_t n)
{
int rc = 0; /* use this to report sillies eg /0 */
while(n-- > 0)
{
++t->power;
t->factor /= t->power;
++t;
}
return rc;
}

If the powers started getting bizarre (e.g. e^(i*pi)), then yes, okay,
that's a bit harder, but for simple polynomials of the form ax^n +
bx^(n-1) + ... + px^1 + qx^0 = y, I don't think that's such a difficult
thing to do in C, even at the student level.

I am sorry but I couldnt make me clear, I did integrate, I just only
couldnt do division, its difficult for me

No, you were very clear. My reply was directed at Mark, not at you. He
wanted to know whether C was the right tool for the job. I think he thinks
this is harder than it really is.
