The reason: he tried to do this: solve(a*x^3+b*x^2+c*x+d=0, x) and the calc managed to solve it with a huge expression.Perhaps it should be a FAQ. solve returns [] for a 3rd or 4rd order generic polynomial on the Prime because the answer would be completly unusable for further computations. The right way to handle solutions of 3rd or larger order equations is algebraic extensions of Q (rootof in Xcas, not available on the Prime). Let me say an expression in my native languaje: ¡Toma castaña! You managed to solve this difficult test with this little program. The result is a maze, but there it is, a result! This example has given me a lesson, the most powerful calculator in the world is the most versatile one. All depends the hands (or head) that uses it. |
