 **Definition 1 (Polynomial Commitment Scheme).** A polynomial commitment scheme (PCS) is an interactive proof system that enables $\mathcal{P}$ to convince $\mathcal{V}$ that he knows a polynomial, without revealing the polynomial directly. $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{V}$ run the protocol in three moves: **gen**, **com**, and **open**. [Plonk]
 
-**Definition 2 (Polynomial IOP).** Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a set of the relations among polynomials $\{P_i\}$. Let $\mathcal{C}_{P_i}$ is the commitment to $P_i$. Given common inputs $\mathcal{R}(\{P_i\})$, $\{\mathcal{C}_{P_i}\}$ to $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{V}$, and private input $\{P_i\}$ to $\mathcal{P}$, they run the following protocol:
-1. $\mathcal{P}$ converts the relations into polynomials $\{Q_j\}$, commits to them, and sends to $\mathcal{V}$
-2. $\mathcal{V}$ sends a random challenge $\xi$
-3. $\mathcal{P}$ runs **open** for $\{P_i(\xi)\}$ and $\{Q_j(\xi)\}$ and outputs the result
-4. $\mathcal{V}$ checks:

 ## Encoding Arrays of Data into Polynomials
 
 Data starts as a array of integers where integers in each slot are between 0 and $q-1$, where $q$ is a large (generally 256 bit) prime number. Recall that we call this set of integers $\mathbb{Z}_q$.
