--fdj2RfSjLxBAspz7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I've been wondering - what does ``root'' stand for? I've just been doing some calculus as part of my math. homework and I've just written down ``there are no ``real'' roots'' - is this possibly something to do with the meaning of ``root'' - i.e. root =3D answer? I'm probably way off but any ideas? -lewiz. --=20 Any philosophy that can be put in a nutshell belongs there. -- Sydney J.
