Interesting, I wasn't aware that both conventions were widely used.
Speaking of series with inverse powers (i.e. Laurent series), I wonder how
useful it would be to create a class to represent expressions with integral
powers from -m to n. These come up in my work sometimes, and I usually

Hi,
I noticed some frustrating inconsistencies in the various ways to evaluate
polynomials using numpy. Numpy has three ways of evaluating polynomials
(that I know of) and each of them has a different syntax:
-
numpy.polynomial.polynomial.Polynomial
