    Jacobi polynomial $P_n^{\left(\alpha, \beta\right)}(x)$.

    Explanation
    ===========

    ``jacobi(n, alpha, beta, x)`` gives the $n$th Jacobi polynomial
    in $x$, $P_n^{\left(\alpha, \beta\right)}(x)$.

    The Jacobi polynomials are orthogonal on $[-1, 1]$ with respect
    to the weight $\left(1-x\right)^\alpha \left(1+x\right)^\beta$.

class hermite(OrthogonalPolynomial):
    r"""
    ``hermite(n, x)`` gives the $n$th Hermite polynomial in $x$, $H_n(x)$.

    Explanation
    ===========

    The Hermite polynomials are orthogonal on $(-\infty, \infty)$
    with respect to the weight $\exp\left(-x^2\right)$.

    Examples
    ========

    >>> from sympy import hermite, diff
    >>> from sympy.abc import x, n
    >>> hermite(0, x)
    1
    >>> hermite(1, x)

    4*x**2 - 2
    >>> hermite(n, x)
    hermite(n, x)

class hermite_prob(OrthogonalPolynomial):
    r"""
    ``hermite_prob(n, x)`` gives the $n$th probabilist's Hermite polynomial
    in $x$, $He_n(x)$.

    Explanation
    ===========

    The probabilist's Hermite polynomials are orthogonal on $(-\infty, \infty)$
    with respect to the weight $\exp\left(-\frac{x^2}{2}\right)$. They are monic
    polynomials, related to the plain Hermite polynomials (:py:class:`~.hermite`) by

    .. math :: He_n(x) = 2^{-n/2} H_n(x/\sqrt{2})

    Examples
    ========

    >>> from sympy import hermite_prob, diff, I
    >>> from sympy.abc import x, n
    >>> hermite_prob(1, x)
    x
    >>> hermite_prob(5, x)
    x**5 - 10*x**3 + 15*x
    >>> diff(hermite_prob(n,x), x)
    n*hermite_prob(n - 1, x)
    >>> hermite_prob(n, -x)
    (-1)**n*hermite_prob(n, x)

    The sum of absolute values of coefficients of $He_n(x)$ is the number of
    matchings in the complete graph $K_n$ or telephone number, A000085 in the OEIS:

    >>> [hermite_prob(n,I) / I**n for n in range(11)]
