A generalized Newton's formula and Macdonald symmetric functions

We give a formula generalizing Newton's formula on symmetric functions. As an application of it, we give a simple proof of the existence of Macdonald symmetric functions and compute the Macdonald functions of shapes of two-row partitions.
