$\begin{usage} values(p, a) \end{usage}$

Signature

values: (%,R) $\to$ Generator R

$\begin{params} {\em p} & \% & A polynomial\\ {\em a} & R & A scalar\\\end{params}$

$\begin{retval} Returns a generator generating the sequence $p(a), p(a+1), p(a+2),\ldots$ \end{retval}$

$\begin{remarks} values~uses arrays of differences and can be more efficient that repeated Horner evaluation. \end{remarks}$
