        Some other subtle conversions. We create polynomial rings in 2
        variables over the rationals, integers, and a finite field.

        ::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<x,y> = ZZ[]
            sage: T.<x,y> = GF(7)[]

        We convert from integer polynomials to rational polynomials,
        and back::

            sage: f = R(S.0^2 - 4*S.1^3); f
            -4*y^3 + x^2
            sage: parent(f)

            sage: parent(S(f))
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Integer Ring

        We convert from polynomials over the finite field.

        ::

            sage: f = R(T.0^2 - 4*T.1^3); f
            3*y^3 + x^2
            sage: parent(f)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Rational Field

        We dump and load the polynomial ring S::

            sage: S2 = loads(dumps(S))
            sage: S2 == S
            True

        Coerce works and gets the right parent.

        ::

            sage: parent(S2._coerce_(S.0)) is S2
            True

        Conversion to reduce modulo a prime between rings with different
        variable names::

            sage: S.<a,b> = PolynomialRing(GF(7),2)
            sage: f = x^2 + 2/3*y^3

        Conversion from symbolic variables::

            sage: parent(f)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field

        A more complicated symbolic and computational mix. Behind the
        scenes Singular and Maxima are doing the real work.

        ::

            sage: R = QQ[x,y,z]
            sage: f = (x^3 + y^3 - z^3)^10; f
            (x^3 + y^3 - z^3)^10
            sage: g = R(f); parent(g)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field
            sage: (f - g).expand()
            0

        It intelligently handles conversions from polynomial rings in a subset
        of the variables too.

            sage: R(f)
            x^2 + 6*x*z + 9*z^2 + 10*x + 30*z + 25

        Arithmetic with a constant from a base ring::

            sage: R.<u,v> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<x,y> = R[]
            sage: u^3*x^2 + v*y
            u^3*x^2 + v*y

        Stacked polynomial rings convert into constants if possible. First,
        the univariate case::

            sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(u + 2)
            u + 2
            sage: S(u + 2).degree()
            1
            sage: S(x + 3)
            x + 3
            sage: S(x + 3).degree()
            0

        Second, the multivariate case::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(x + 2*y)
            x + 2*y
            sage: S(u + 2*v)
            u + 2*v

        Conversion from strings::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: R('x+(1/2)*y^2')
            1/2*y^2 + x
            sage: S.<u,v> = ZZ[]
            sage: S('u^2 + u*v + v^2')
            u^2 + u*v + v^2

        Foreign polynomial rings convert into the highest ring; the point
        here is that an element of T could convert to an element of R or an
        element of S; it is anticipated that an element of T is more likely
        to be "the right thing" and is historically consistent.

        ::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: T.<a,b> = QQ[]
            sage: S(a + b)
            u + v

            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Rational Field

        We dump and load the polynomial ring S::

            sage: S2 = loads(dumps(S))
            sage: S2 == S
            True

        Coerce works and gets the right parent.

        ::

            sage: parent(S2._coerce_(S.0)) is S2
            True

        Conversion to reduce modulo a prime between rings with different
        variable names::

            sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ,2)
            sage: S.<a,b> = PolynomialRing(GF(7),2)
            sage: f = x^2 + 2/3*y^3

            3*b^3 + a^2

        Conversion from symbolic variables::

            sage: R = QQ['x,y,z']
            sage: type(x)

            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field

        A more complicated symbolic and computational mix. Behind the
        scenes Singular and Maxima are doing the real work.

        ::

            sage: R = QQ['x,y,z']
            sage: f = (x^3 + y^3 - z^3)^10; f

        It intelligently handles conversions from polynomial rings in a subset
        of the variables too.

        ::

            sage: S = ZZ['y']
            sage: R(7*S.0)

            sage: R(f)
            x^2 + 6*x*z + 9*z^2 + 10*x + 30*z + 25

        Arithmetic with a constant from a base ring::

            sage: R.<u,v> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<x,y> = R[]
            sage: u^3*x^2 + v*y
            u^3*x^2 + v*y

        Stacked polynomial rings convert into constants if possible. First,
        the univariate case::

            sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(u + 2)
            u + 2
            sage: S(u + 2).degree()
            1
            sage: S(x + 3)
            x + 3
            sage: S(x + 3).degree()
            0

        Second, the multivariate case::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(x + 2*y)
            x + 2*y
            sage: S(u + 2*v)
            u + 2*v

        Conversion from strings::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: R('x+(1/2)*y^2')
            1/2*y^2 + x
            sage: S.<u,v> = ZZ[]
            sage: S('u^2 + u*v + v^2')
            u^2 + u*v + v^2

        Foreign polynomial rings convert into the highest ring; the point
        here is that an element of T could convert to an element of R or an
        element of S; it is anticipated that an element of T is more likely
        to be "the right thing" and is historically consistent.

        ::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: T.<a,b> = QQ[]
            sage: S(a + b)
            u + v

        TESTS:

        Check if we still allow nonsense (see :trac:`7951`)::

            sage: P = PolynomialRing(QQ, 0, '')
            sage: P('pi')
            Traceback (most recent call last):
            ...
            TypeError: Unable to coerce pi (<class 'sage.symbolic.constants.Pi'>) to Rational

        Check that it is possible to convert strings to iterated
        polynomial rings (see :trac:`13327`)::

            sage: Rm = QQ["a"]["b, c"]
            sage: Rm("a*b")
            a*b
            sage: parent(_) is Rm
            True

        Check that conversion from PARI works correctly (see
        :trac:`17974`)::

            sage: A.<a> = PolynomialRing(QQ)
            sage: B.<d,e> = PolynomialRing(A)
            sage: f = pari(a*d)
            sage: B(f)
            a*d

            sage: A.<a,b> = PolynomialRing(QQ)
            sage: B.<d,e> = PolynomialRing(A)
            sage: f = pari(a*d)
            sage: B(f)
            a*d

        It is possible to convert `f` into `B` by using ``f.sage()``,
        but this requires specifying a ``locals`` argument::

            sage: f
            d*a
            sage: f.sage()
            Traceback (most recent call last):
            ...
            NameError: name 'd' is not defined
            sage: f.sage(locals={'a': a, 'd': d})
            a*d

            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Rational Field
            sage: parent(S(f))
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Integer Ring

        We convert from polynomials over the finite field.

        ::

            sage: f = R(T.0^2 - 4*T.1^3); f
            3*y^3 + x^2
            sage: parent(f)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Rational Field

        We dump and load the polynomial ring S::

            sage: S2 = loads(dumps(S))
            sage: S2 == S
            True

        Coerce works and gets the right parent.

        ::

            sage: parent(S2._coerce_(S.0)) is S2
            True

        Conversion to reduce modulo a prime between rings with different
        variable names::

            sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ,2)
            sage: S.<a,b> = PolynomialRing(GF(7),2)
            sage: f = x^2 + 2/3*y^3
            sage: S(f)
            3*b^3 + a^2

        Conversion from symbolic variables::

            sage: x,y,z = var('x,y,z')
            sage: R = QQ[x,y,z]
            sage: type(x)
            <type 'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression'>
            sage: type(R(x))
            <type 'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_libsingular.MPolynomial_libsingular'>
            sage: f = R(x^3 + y^3 - z^3); f
            x^3 + y^3 - z^3
            sage: type(f)
            <type 'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_libsingular.MPolynomial_libsingular'>
            sage: parent(f)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field

        A more complicated symbolic and computational mix. Behind the
        scenes Singular and Maxima are doing the real work.

        ::

            sage: R = QQ[x,y,z]
            sage: f = (x^3 + y^3 - z^3)^10; f
            (x^3 + y^3 - z^3)^10
            sage: g = R(f); parent(g)
            Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field
            sage: (f - g).expand()
            0

        It intelligently handles conversions from polynomial rings in a subset
        of the variables too.

        ::

            sage: R = GF(5)['x,y,z']
            sage: S = ZZ['y']
            sage: R(7*S.0)
            2*y
            sage: T = ZZ['x,z']
            sage: R(2*T.0 + 6*T.1 + T.0*T.1^2)
            x*z^2 + 2*x + z

        ::

            sage: R = QQ['t,x,y,z']
            sage: S.<x> = ZZ['x']
            sage: T.<z> = S['z']
            sage: T
            Univariate Polynomial Ring in z over Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring
            sage: f = (x+3*z+5)^2; f
            9*z^2 + (6*x + 30)*z + x^2 + 10*x + 25
            sage: R(f)
            x^2 + 6*x*z + 9*z^2 + 10*x + 30*z + 25

        Arithmetic with a constant from a base ring::

            sage: R.<u,v> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<x,y> = R[]
            sage: u^3*x^2 + v*y
            u^3*x^2 + v*y

        Stacked polynomial rings convert into constants if possible. First,
        the univariate case::

            sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(u + 2)
            u + 2
            sage: S(u + 2).degree()
            1
            sage: S(x + 3)
            x + 3
            sage: S(x + 3).degree()
            0

        Second, the multivariate case::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: S(x + 2*y)
            x + 2*y
            sage: S(u + 2*v)
            u + 2*v

        Conversion from strings::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: R('x+(1/2)*y^2')
            1/2*y^2 + x
            sage: S.<u,v> = ZZ[]
            sage: S('u^2 + u*v + v^2')
            u^2 + u*v + v^2

        Foreign polynomial rings convert into the highest ring; the point
        here is that an element of T could convert to an element of R or an
        element of S; it is anticipated that an element of T is more likely
        to be "the right thing" and is historically consistent.

        ::

            sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
            sage: S.<u,v> = R[]
            sage: T.<a,b> = QQ[]
            sage: S(a + b)
            u + v
