EXTENSIONS

Partially edited by N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), May 22 2007. The example lines suggest that these polynomials are really polynomials in x^4, in which case they should be rewritten in terms of y = x^4, which would remove most of the zero entries. Unforntunately the Mathematica code does not quite match the sequence.
