use implicit roots in fricas interface #34420

Open dimpase opened 2 years ago

dimpase commented 2 years ago

Our FriCAS interface always uses radical expressions for roots of algebraic equations, which is often suboptimal. This ticket will implement an option to use implicit roots (not expressed in terms of radicals).

See this fricas-devel post for context.
