Rewrite in terms of the powers of (x-a) : ptayl
ptayl is used to rewrite a polynomial P depending of x
in terms of the powers of (x-a)
(ptayl means polynomial Taylor)
ptayl takes two arguments: a polynomial P given by a
symbolic expression or by the list of it's coefficients and
a number a.
ptayl returns the polynomial Q such that Q(x-a)=P(x)
Input :
ptayl(x^
2+2*x+1,2)
Output, the polynomial Q:
x^
2+6*x+9
Input :
ptayl([1,2,1],2)
Output :
[1,6,9]
Remark
P(x)=Q(x-a)
i.e. for the example :
x2 + 2x + 1 = (x - 2)2 + 6(x - 2) + 9
