Undergrad What is the Problem with Calculating Roots of a Quartic Equation?
The issue isn't so much as finding the roots for a specific quartic equation, its that I need to be able to dynamically calculate it programatically, for any quartic equation . Like I said I'm using Ferrari's solution http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_function#Ferrari.27s_solution. But I'm...- scottlangendy
