numpy.polysub

numpy.polysub(a1, a2)[source]

Difference (subtraction) of two polynomials.

Given two polynomials a1 and a2, returns a1 - a2. a1 and a2 can be either array_like sequences of the polynomials’ coefficients (including coefficients equal to zero), or poly1d objects.

Parameters :

a1, a2 : array_like or poly1d

Minuend and subtrahend polynomials, respectively.

Returns :

out : ndarray or poly1d

Array or poly1d object of the difference polynomial’s coefficients.
