`numpy.polynomial.polynomial.``polyadd`(c1, c2)

  Add one polynomial to another.

  Returns the sum of two polynomials c1 + c2. The arguments are sequences of coefficients from lowest order term to highest, i.e., [1,2,3] represents the polynomial `1 + 2*x + 3*x**2`.

  Parameters: | c1, c2 : array_like 1-D arrays of polynomial coefficients ordered from low to high.
  Returns: | out : ndarray The coefficient array representing their sum.

  Examples

      >>> from numpy.polynomial import polynomial as P
      >>> c1 = (1,2,3)
      >>> c2 = (3,2,1)
      >>> sum = P.polyadd(c1,c2); sum
      array([ 4.,  4.,  4.])
      >>> P.polyval(2, sum) # 4 + 4(2) + 4(2**2)
