================================================= This is an automated summary of the status of the R-bugs repository. Note that this may be neither complete nor perfectly correct at any given instance: Not all bugs are reported, and some reported bugs may have been fixed, but the repository not yet updated. Some bug fixes are difficult to verify because they pertain to specific hardware or operating system versions. If you have information to contribute, please do so. If you happen to know how to fix a problem please send patches to the bug repository, too. New bugs are reported either through the web interface at r-bugs.r-project.org or via email to r-bugs@r-project.org. The bug.report() function can be used to automate parts of the procedure on many systems. Followups on older bugs can be done by including the string "(PR#999)" in the Subject of an email (change 999 to the actual reference number, of course!). ================================================= Directory: Accuracy * PR# 751 * Subject: BUG: polyroot() From: "Li Dongfeng" Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2000 13:24:33 +0800 --Numerical instability.
