functionplot

Plot polynomial y=p(x)

Information

Plots the given polynomial. If default arguments are used, as in:

    Polynomial p = Polynomial({1,2,3});
    Polynomial.plotPolynomial(p);

then the abszissa range is determined in such a way that all roots (i.e., p(x)=0) and all extrema (i.e, pd=derivative(p), pd(x)=0) are in the plotted range. As default legend, the String representation of the polynomial is used as generated by Polynomial.'String'(..).
