Order of a polynomial
In mathematics, the order of a polynomial may refer to:
- Degree of a polynomial, the largest exponent or sum of exponents in any of its monomials
- Multiplicative order, the number of times the polynomial is divisible by some value
- The order of the polynomial considered as a power series, that is the degree of its non-zero term of lowest degree.
- Order of a spline, either the degree+1 of the polynomials defining the spline or the number of knot points used to determine it
