 for univariate polynomials we have the class {{{Polynomial}}}:
 {{{
 sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
 sage: isinstance(x+1, Polynomial)
 True
 }}}
 However for multivariate polynomials we have to write:
 {{{
 sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
 sage: isinstance(x+y, sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial.MPolynomial)
 True
 }}}
 I suggest {{{MPolynomial}}} is defined as an alias for
 {{{sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial.MPolynomial}}} so that we can
 simply write:
 {{{
 sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
 sage: isinstance(x+y, MPolynomial)
 True
 }}}
