fromroots([2,2,1,-1])
```
The `fromroots` function is basically the [factor thereom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_theorem) which links the factored form of the polynomial with the roots of the polynomial: $(x-k)$ is a factor of $p$ if and only if $k$ is a root of $p$. By combining a factor of the type $(x-k)$ for each specified root, the polynomial can be constructed by multiplying its factors. For example, using `prod` and a generarator, we would have:
