Abstract: | Summary.
Wilkinson, in 1], has given a comprehensive account of the numerical
difficulties of working with polynomials on a floating point computer. The
object of this note is to attempt to rehabilitate the polynomial to a certain
extent. In particular it is shown here that polynomial deflation can be
performed satisfactorily by a method akin to `backward recursion'. Error
analyses and examples are given to illustrate the stability of the
process.
