Since it was first conceived in the early 1940s, the computer has been used to solve classical mathematical problems that have been around for centuries. In a recent development, a computer has solved a problem that has been around for over 300 years.
The problem in question is the cubic equation, which is a mathematical problem involving the third power of a variable. The equation can be solved using algebra, but for more difficult problems, such as those with more than one variable, a numerical method is often used.
One such numerical method is the bisection method, which is a …
