x3 divided by (x+1)

Consider x3 as x3+0x2+0x+0

and either do it by long division:

        x²- x+1-1%2F%28x%2B1%29
x+1)x³+0x²+0x+0
    x³+ x²
       -x²+0x
       -x²- x
            x+0
            x+1
             -1

Or by synthetic division:

-1|1  0  0  0 
  |  -1  1 -1
   1 -1  1 -1

also yielding:  x²-x+1-1%2F%28x%2B1%29
