Class
    Foam::polynomial

Description
    Polynomial container data entry for scalars. Items are stored in a list of
    Tuple2's. Data is input in the form, e.g. for an entry <entryName> that
    describes y = x^2 + 2x^3

    @verbatim
        <entryName>   polynomial
        (
            (1    2)
            (2    3)
        );
    @endverbatim
