I review why the (n + 1)st difference sequence is zero for sequence data generated by an nth degree polynomial. Then, I use difference equations to show that if a sequence has its (n + 1)st difference ...

Mathematicians have devised a new way to solve higher-order polynomial equations, ushering in a 'dramatic revision of a basic chapter in algebra'.
