division
%28%28x%5E3+-+1%29%29%2F%28%28x%2B1%29%29
:
..........................x^2 - x + 1
.........---------------------
(x+1)|x^3 + 0x^2 + 0x - 1
...........x^3 + x^2
...........----------
......................-x^2 + 0x
......................-x^2 - x
......................-----------
................................+x - 1
................................+x + 1
................................--------
.......................................-2
:
%28%28x%5E3+-+1%29%29%2F%28%28x%2B1%29%29 = x^2 - x + 1; remainder -2%2F%28%28x%2B1%29%29
