In Polynomial, the expression of variables involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and non-negative integer exponents of variables. To solve problems in mathematics and science like forming polynomial equations, defining polynomial functions, in calculus and physics to economics and social science, numerical analysis etc. polynomial method is a must. Through this [course_title] you will be able to solve problems in combinatorics.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
