Epimorphism from Polynomial Forms to Polynomial Functions

Theorem
Let $D$ be an integral domain.

Let $D \left[{X}\right]$ be the ring of polynomial forms in $X$ over $D$.

Let $P \left({D}\right)$ be the ring of polynomial functions over $D$.

The mapping $\kappa: D \left[{X}\right] \to P \left({D}\right)$ given by:
 * $\displaystyle \kappa \left({\sum_{k \mathop = 0}^n {a_k \circ X^k}}\right) = f$

where $\displaystyle f = \sum_{k \mathop = 0}^n {a_k \circ x^k}, x \in D$

is a ring epimorphism.
