The
Solver
This
chapter
describes
how
to find a zero
and
a
minimum
of
the
ex-
pression you
plotted
in
the
previous chapter. Work
through
the
steps
in
the
previous
chapter
if you
haven't
done
so already,
because
you'll
need
some
of
the
results from
that
chapter.
For a
complete
description
of
the
Solver, refer to "SOLVE" in
the
Ref-
erence Manual.
Finding a
Zero
of
an
Expression
The
following example
assumes
that
the
expression x
3
-
x
2
- X
+ 3
is
still
the
current
equation
and
that
you've
created
the
variable
PPARl,
as described in
the
previous chapter. You'll
plot
the
expres-
sion again, digitize
an
estimate
for a zero of
the
expression,
and
then
use
the
Solver to find a
more
accurate value for
the
zero.
Before
