RandomPolynomial[ <Degree> , <Minimum for Coefficients>, <Maximum for Coefficients> ]
Returns a randomly generated polynomial in x of degree d, whose (integer) coefficients are in the range from minimum to maximum, both included.
Examples:
  • RandomPolynomial[0, 1, 2] yields either 1 or 2 and
  • RandomPolynomial[2, 1, 2] yields a random polynomial with a degree of two and only 1 and 2 as coefficients, for example 2x2 + x + 1.

RandomPolynomial[ <Degree> , <Minimum for Coefficients>, <Maximum for Coefficients> ]
Returns a randomly generated polynomial in x of degree d, whose (integer) coefficients are in the range from minimum to maximum, both included.
Examples:
  • RandomPolynomial[0, 1, 2] yields either 1 or 2 and
  • RandomPolynomial[2, 1, 2] yields a random polynomial with a degree of two and only 1 and 2 as coefficients, for example 2x2 + x + 1.


RandomPolynomial[ <Variable>, <Degree> , <Minimum for Coefficients>, <Maximum for Coefficients> ]
Returns a randomly generated polynomial in Variable of degree d, whose (integer) coefficients are in the range from minimum to maximum, both included.
Examples:
  • RandomPolynomial[a, 0, 1, 2] yields either 1 or 2 and
  • RandomPolynomial[a, 2, 1, 2] yields a random polynomial with a degree of two and only 1 and 2 as coefficients, for example 2a2 + a + 1.
Note: In both cases if minimum or maximum are not integers, round(minimum) and round(maximum) are used instead.
