Problem 1. Polynomials.
Background
As part of an engineering analysis program that you are writing, you must manipulate many
polynomials of high degree.For example, we may have:
f(x)=9.63x32 + 0.534 x7 - 2.42 x4+ 8.01
We will represent the polynomial as a linked list. Each node in the list will have an integer
degree, a double coefficient and a reference to the next term. The final node will have a null
reference to indicate the end of the list.
