What's the difference between integer and polynomial?
Integer
Definition:
(n.) A complete entity; a whole number, in contradistinction to a fraction or a mixed number.
Example Sentences:

(16) A non-linear integer programming procedure is used to find reasonable solutions to this problem.
(17) We have combined these results into a Law of Mortality, based on a Weibull function containing only integer parameters and constants, which is valid for all human age-related disease mortality.
(18) For instance, eye movements were made across an integer and odd number of checks in order to mimic the pattern reversal.
(19) minimal nonrandomness) composition, admitting non-integer values of ni; the integer level with optimal integer composition; the noise level, represented by a typical random cain; and the real protein level.
(20) These models predict that toxicity to the host of cell-cycle-phase-specific drugs can be minimised if the dosing interval is an integer multiple of the average intermitotic interval of the susceptible host cells.
Polynomial
Definition:
(n.) An expression composed of two or more terms, connected by the signs plus or minus; as, a2 - 2ab + b2.
(a.) Containing many names or terms; multinominal; as, the polynomial theorem.
(a.) Consisting of two or more words; having names consisting of two or more words; as, a polynomial name; polynomial nomenclature.
Example Sentences:
(1) The dual-line and polynomial regression techniques fit the data better (mean residual square deviation 0.024 and 0.031, respectively) than the single-regression line approach (0.110).
(2) The N2O dose-response data for each animal were fit by a second-order polynomial equation to estimate the value of a second-order coefficient.
(3) The calculation is made from a newly derived third-degree polynomial reflecting the ratio of the optic densities of whole nonstabilized blood hemoglobin aqueous solution in the 560-580 and 535-560 nm bands.
(4) Relative dose functions for 125I for these phantom media are fitted to second-degree polynomials.

(9) The polynomial logit-log procedure gave the best fit, but this was probably due to the inherent flexibility of this curve-fitting process since the analytical precision achieved with it was not better than what was obtained with most of the other procedures.
