`polyfactors`

Returns polynomial factors as a Vector of separate factor expressions.

In Nerdamer Notation, use polyfactors(...). In JavaScript or TypeScript, use polyFactors(...) from the root API or nerdamer/algebra.

The result is a Vector containing the factor expressions rather than a single product.

Examples

These examples use Nerdamer Notation.

Return the factors of a difference of squares as separate Vector entries.

polyfactors(x^2-1)
// → [1+x, -1+x]

The same operation is available through the interfaces below.

Use this form inside input passed to nerdamer(...).

polyfactors(arg1)

Call the operation through the default nerdamer import.

nerdamer.polyFactors(x: ExpressionInput): Vector

Name	Type	Description
`x`	`ExpressionInput`	Polynomial-like input.

Vector — A new Vector containing the factor expressions.

Import the operation directly from its package entry point.

import { polyFactors } from 'nerdamer/algebra';

polyFactors(x: ExpressionInput): Vector

Name	Type	Description
`x`	`ExpressionInput`	Polynomial-like input.

Vector — A new Vector containing the factor expressions.
