MetaDriver:

And for nothing, I agreed.

Not for nothing. I have an endless family of solutions in the back of my mind.

And, by the way, a cubic equation always has at least one valid root.

Show me.
 
TheXpert:

Oh, by the way, a cubic equation always has at least one valid root.

Where did it go?

Is the calculator lying?

Is the calculator lying?

It could be.

Is the calculator lying?

Looks like it's lying. If it's solving numerically, it probably overflows.

(sighs) I don't know.

Is it not for equations of the form ax^3+bx+c=0?

?

Anything can happen when x^2 appears...

No, it can't. It turns out all cubic equations are reducible to the form x^3+px+q=0.

No, it can't. It turns out that all cubic equations are reducible to the form x^3+px+q=0

Very easy to justify logically. infinite minus at minus infinity, plus the opposite, so the x-axis is crossed at least once, since the function is continuous.

I have a general suspicion that all equations in question have all three valid roots, of which one is positive. The degrees at i in your screenshot confirm it.

I agree, that's what it looked like to me.
 
MetaDriver: That's not it. We've already figured that out. Now we're looking for a situation where passage is only possible in one direction.
Well, the megafunction is periodic.
