Abstract

This project work considered polynomial ring and division algorithm for polynomials over a field. However, for the purpose of this work, polynomials as well as division algorithm for polynomials of arbitrary field have been discussed vividly. Moreover, least common multiple (LCM), highest common factor (HCF), reducibility and irreducibility of polynomials over a given field were described and realized. Finally, Lagrange’s interpolation method was used as an essential tool for constructing polynomials over a given field.
