Further Examples: Factor (modified)

We factor a few polynomials over the integers.

In[1]:=

Out[1]=

In[2]:=

Out[2]=

In[3]:=

Out[3]=

Some polynomials that don't factor over the integers do factor over the integers modulo a prime.

In[4]:=

Out[4]=

In[5]:=

Out[5]=

Without specifying the appropriate extension field, you cannot factor either of these polynomials into linear factors.

In[6]:=

Out[6]=

In[7]:=

Out[7]=

You can factor them into linear terms by specifying the extension.

In[8]:=

Out[8]=

In[9]:=

Out[9]=

Here we factor a polynomial in three variables with 195 terms.

In[10]:=

Out[10]=
