MPSolve (Multiprecision Polynomial Solver) is a package for the
multiprecision.[2]
"Mpsolve takes advantage of sparsity, and has special hooks for polynomials that can be evaluated efficiently by straight-line programs"[3]
Implementation
The program is written mostly in
GNU Multi-Precision Library. It uses a command-line interface
(CLI) and,
starting from version 3.1.0 has also a GUI and interfaces for MATLAB and GNU/Octave.
Usage
The executable program of the package is called mpsolve. It can be
run from command line in console
. The executable file for the graphical user interface is called xmpsolve, and the MATLAB and Octave functions are called mps_roots. They behave similarly to the function roots that is already included in these software packages.
Output
Typically output will be on the screen. It may also be saved as a text file (with res extension) and plotted in gnuplot. Direct plotting in gnuplot is also supported on Unix systems.
