Re: Is it possible to have several solutions in this wa y to this equation using Pari/ɢᴘ ?

Not exactly as there’s no second equation mais un polynome…

Currently the script for solving this is :

beta=-(V\W);
alpha=W*(V+W*beta);
xx=alpha^2*x^2+(2*alpha*beta-f*b)*x+(beta^2-c);
nfr=nfroots(,xx);

So given v,w,b,c I want to find integers alpha and beta such I can find at least 2 different but valid values of nfr. I think this means modifying the part of script for finding alpha and beta. This might not even be mathematically possible at all…
Cordialement,
