[jira] Created: (MATH-536) String representation of polynomials

String representation of polynomials
------------------------------------

                 Key: MATH-536
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-536
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Gilles
            Assignee: Gilles
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 3.0


The "toString" method in "PolynomialFunction" actually creates strings like
{noformat}
  1.0 - 3.0 x + x^2
{noformat}
whereas the Javadoc provides this example:
{noformat}
  1 - 3 x + x^2
{noformat}
The second form is indeed more user-friendly.
I propose to modify the code so that the redundant ".0" suffix is removed.
