Determination of Roots of a Polynomial
FOCAL8-68

A. E. Sapega, Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut

This program will find all roots, real and complex, of a
polynomial. The 4K version consists of four programs. Program
I finds a real root. Program II divides the polynomial
by the real root, so reducing the order of the polynomial by
one. Program III finds complex roots after all real roots have
been extracted. Program IV divides the polynomial by a pair
of roots to reduce the order of the polynomial by two. An 8K
version contains all the above parts in one program.

NOTE: When ordering please state whether 4K or 8K version
is required.
