链表的运用：多项式加法

通过链表来实现两个多项式的加法。

1.创建节点类型

用链表储存多项式则链表的一个节点就代表多项式的某一项。所以一个节点应该包含多项式的系数、多项式的指数以及指向下个节点的指针。

2.打印多项式

传入一个指向多项式链表的指针，遍历该链表，依次打印链表内容，此时采用科学计数法的形式。

3.尾插

申请一个新节点，将要求的系数和指数赋值给这个新节点，并将新节点的指针域置空，然后遍历整个链表，将新节点链接到最后一个节点的next指针上。

4.多项式相加

从两个待相加的多项式表头开始，比较两个节点的指数大小，将结果存储到第一个多项式的链表中。若节点指数相同，则将两个节点系数相加，并将结果存放到第一个节点的系数中；若节点指数不同，将指数小的节点链接到结果链表中，改变指针指向以更新链表遍历状态。
