								A root or zero of a polynomial P(x) is a solution to the equation P(x) = 0.

								Define Pn as the polynomial whose coefficients are the digits of n.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								For example, P5703(x) = 5x3 + 7x2 + 3.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								We can see that:Pn(0) is the last digit of n,
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								Pn(1) is the sum of the digits of n,
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								Pn(10) is n itself.Define Z(k) as the number of positive integers, n, not exceeding k for which the polynomial Pn has at least one integer root.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								It can be verified that Z(100 000) is 14696.
