Abstract
A method and device for evaluating polynomial equations with a logic computer. To evaluate the polynomial equation more efficiently using a computer with latent memory accesses, the polynomial is split into a plurality of sub-polynomials. The sub-polynomials can be simultaneously evaluated using Horner's rule. The results of the sub-polynomial evaluations are summed to obtain the evaluation of the polynomial equation. A device and method are described.
