The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Math::Radicals
DSLIP: cdpOp

rationale:
This modules I'm writing won't be just plugging in a square root
and getting an answer. Perl does that without me. This will do
factoring not to solve radicals but to simplify them. For example,
if I have 2 times radical 108, 108 is not a perfect square. It would
be about 20.8 if you run it in a calculator. To simplify it you take
out perfect square, in this case the greatest factor that is a
perfect square is 36 x 3 = 108. 2 times radical 36 times radical 3.
Square root of 36 is 6, 2 times 6 is 12, final simplified answer is
12 radical 3. I think a modules like this would be important for
simplifying radicals for equations and so on.
