Description

I want to figure out how polyFit from the polyreg library relates to Rs poly function (https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/stats/versions/3.5.2/topics/poly)

What are the differences?
polyFit can perform PCA beforehand, poly not.

Is there any more?

Does poly have some limitations that polyFit has not which I am not seeing?

Research direction

Start by comparing polyFit from the polyreg library with R's stats::poly documentation and behavior. Document their differences, including PCA support, and identify any limitations of stats::poly that polyFit does not share. Done means the comparison answers the listed questions clearly.
