Abstract

High speed computing finds roots of polynomials with real number coefficients. Ratios of successive polynomial derivatives approach provides accurate roots-of-polynomial computer programs with very high reliability. With derivative ratio method, root analysis can still be done even though the polynomial and its lower order derivatives cannot be evaluated with sufficient accuracy.
