Appendix A: Functions and Instructions

Optionally, you can specify an initial guess for a
variable. Each

varOrGuess

must have the form:

variable

– or –

variable

=

real or non-real number

For example,

x

is valid and so is

x=3+

i

.

If all of the expressions are polynomials and you
do NOT specify any initial guesses,

cZeros()

uses

the lexical Gröbner/Buchberger elimination
method to attempt to determine all complex
zeros.

Note: The following examples use an
underscore _ (

¥ ) so that the variables will

be treated as complex.

Complex zeros can include both real and non-real
zeros, as in the example to the right.

Each row of the resulting matrix represents an
alternate zero, with the components ordered the
same as the

varOrGuess

list. To extract a row,

index the matrix by [

row

].

You can also include unknown variables that do
not appear in the expressions. These zeros show
how families of zeros might contain arbitrary
constants of the form @

k

, where

k

is an integer

suffix from 1 through 255. The suffix resets to 1
when you use

ClrHome

or ƒ

8:Clear Home

.

For polynomial systems, computation time or
memory exhaustion may depend strongly on the
order in which you list unknowns. If your initial
choice exhausts memory or your patience, try
rearranging the variables in the expressions
and/or

varOrGuess

list.

If you do not include any guesses and if any
expression is non-polynomial in any variable but
all expressions are linear in all unknowns,

cZeros()

uses Gaussian elimination to attempt to

determine all zeros.

If a system is neither polynomial in all of its
variables nor linear in its unknowns,

cZeros()

determines at most one zero using an
approximate iterative method. To do so, the
number of unknowns must equal the number of
expressions, and all other variables in the
expressions must simplify to numbers.
