Overview

Usage:

[XEQ] [I], enter A, [R/S], enter B, [R/S], enter C, [R/S].

Results:

If the equation has two roots (or one double): Program stops and the Root1 is displayed, and the Flag1 anunciator is set. Press [R/S], then displayed Root2, and Flag2 anunciator is set. If the equation hasn't got root(s), Flag0 anunciator is set, and the display is contain the approximate extremum of function, and the y-level of stack is contain previous approximation of extremum. The levels z and t of stack contains of the value of function in the estimated values of extremum.
