Subj : Roots of a polynomial To : comp.programming From : temper3243 Date : Sun Aug 28 2005 11:24 pm Hi, I have been trying to solve the problem Roots of the polynomial 038 from mipt.ru (el judge). I have failed to do so. I tried to search on the net but found about contour integrals for routh-hurwitz criterion. So it is difficult to code. Can you please tell me how to solve the problem for degree 20 ? and how to approach the problem for degree 4. Please do tell me the pseudo code and references. Thanks, Terry temper_3243@yahoo.com .
