Abstract

This paper looks at the development of a Java application programming interface (API) for performing unbounded Polynomial Arithmetic. It shows how Java can be used to perform large integer mathematical operations by using the BigInteger class. By demonstrating how the API might be used in a real application the paper shows how easy the API is to use with very little knowledge of polynomial arithmetic.
