How to calculate sum of two polynomials?

Question

For instance 3x^4 - 17x^2 - 3x + 5. Each term of the polynomial can be represented as a pair of integers (coefficient,exponent). The polynomial itself is then a list of su

This python code worked for me,hope this works for u too...

Addition func

def addpoly(p1,p2):
i=0
su=0
j=0
c=[]
if len(p1)==0:
    #if p1 empty
    return p2
if len(p2)==0:
    #if p2 is empty
    return p1
while ip2[j][1]:
        c.append((p1[i]))
        i=i+1
    elif p1[i][1]

Multiply func

def multipoly(p1,p2):
p=[]
s=0
for i in p1:
    c=[]
    for j in p2:
        s=i[0]*j[0]
        e=i[1]+j[1]
        c.append((s,e))
    p=addpoly(c,p)
return p
