TODO: Reformat
- To find the y intercept, it's the constant term on the top over the constant term on the bottom
- to find the x intercept, solve the top for x
- To solve for the vertical asymptote, find the roots of the bottom.
- To solve for the horizontal asymptote, if the degree of the leading coefficient on the top is greater than the degree on the bottom, y = 0. IF the degree on the top equals the degree on the bottom, y = `Leading Coefficient of Top / Leading Coefficient of Bottom`. If the degree on the top is greater than the degree on the bottom, divide to find the slant/oblique asymptote.
## Point of discontinuity
A point of discontinuity is created when you cancel terms out of the top and the bottom, the cancelled t
