You can use POLYROOT([1,0,5]). The list inside the square brackets is the coefficients of the polynomial whose roots you wish to find. The result is a 1 by n matrix (for an nth degree polynomial) containing the roots. Note that a complex number is represented as an ordered pair of numbers in parentheses - (real,imag). For example 3+2i is represented as (3,2).

For example, POLYROOT([1,0,5]) => [(0,2.2360679775),(0,-2.2360679775)].
