Horner's method
In mathematics and computer science, Horner's method (or Horner's scheme) is an algorithm for polynomial evaluation. It is named after William George Horner, although it is much older, attributed by Horner to Joseph-Louis Lagrange, and was discovered hundreds of years earlier by Chinese and Persian mathematicians. After the introduction of computers, this algorithm became fundamental for computing efficiently with polynomials. The algorithm is based on Horner's rule, in which a polynomial is written in nested form: a 0 + a 1 x + a 2...
