Squarefree polynomial factorization

The calculator extracts square factors from the input polynomial.

A univariate square-free polynomial p(x) has no square factors: q2(x), where q(x) - positive degree polynomial.
The calculator below factorizes an input polynomial into square factors if any. The input polynomial should be primitive (i.e. all the coefficients must be co-prime), otherwise the calculator produces a constant factor equals to polynomial content.
The coefficients can be integer, complex number, fraction or complex fraction.
It produces square free factors along with their exponent.
The calculator uses Yun's square-free factorization algorithm, which is described just below the calculator.

Yun square-free factorization algorithm

The algorithm pseudo code: 1

//Input polynomial (must be primitive)
a(x);
 //Derivative calculation
b(x) ⟵ a'(x)            
//Greatest common divisor calculation     
c(x) ⟵ gcd( a(x), b(x) ) 
i=1
if  c(x)=0  {
    w(x) ⟵ a(x)
} else {
    w(x) ⟵ a(x)/c(x)
    y(x) ⟵ b(x)/c(x)
    z(x) ⟵ y(x) - w'(x)
    while( z(x)!=0 ) {
        g(x) ⟵ gcd(w(x),z(x))
        output ⟵ g(x)^i
        i⟵ i + 1
        w(x) ⟵ w(x) / g(x)
        y(x) ⟵ z(x) / g(x)
        z(x) ⟵ y(x) - w'(x)
    }
}
output ⟵ w(x)^i
