Syntax

QUO ( expression, expression, symbol )


Implemented in iMath since version 2.2.0 or earlier.

Explanation

Calculate the quotient of two polynomials in the given variable. An error message will be shown if one of the expressions is not a polynomial in the variable.

To calculate the integer quotient, use the iquo function.


Example

EXDEF QUO(x^5 - 1, x - 1, x) will give the result x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1.
