I've created a mapping between words and complex-valued polynomials, and I've generated examples from word lists that I've I found on another puzzle. You don't need to study every one of these, but I recommend you study a few (1-5 of your choice) of them to get the hang of what the pattern is.

The question is, what polynomial corresponds to the word "mist"?
