# numpy.polynomial.polynomial.polydiv

polynomial.polynomial.polydiv(c1, c2)

  Divide one polynomial by another.

  Returns the quotient-with-remainder of two polynomials c1 / c2. The arguments are sequences of coefficients, from lowest order term to highest, e.g., [1,2,3] represents `1 + 2*x + 3*x**2`.

  Parameters
    c1, c2 array_like

      1-D arrays of polynomial coefficients ordered from low to high.

  Returns
    [quo, rem]ndarrays

      Of coefficient series representing the quotient and remainder.

  Examples

      >>> from numpy.polynomial import polynomial as P
      >>> c1 = (1,2,3)
      >>> c2 = (3,2,1)
      >>> P.polydiv(c1,c2)
      (array([3.]), array([-8., -4.]))
      >>> P.polydiv(c2,c1)
      (array([ 0.33333333]), array([ 2.66666667,  1.33333333])) # may vary
