As I wrote in another post, I'm currently only looking for a quintic equation solver, which your module does very nicely. > The > original source for the algorithm used in the module is > from Hiroshi Murakami's Fortran source, and it shouldn't > be too difficult to repeat the translation process to python. Ah ok, I'll try to locate that (following the instruction in Solve.pm didn't work for me :( ). Just -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
