A computer generates a random polynomials p ( x ) p(x) with positive integer coefficients. The order of the polynomials is unknown. For any input value of x c x_c , the computer outputs the numeric value p ( x c ) p(x_c) . What two inputs would identify all the coefficients of the unknown polynomial?

Note: Only two inputs are sufficient to exactly determine p ( x ) p(x) .

0, 100 1, 10^{p(1)} 1, 1/p(1) 2^{32}, 2^{1/32}
