Re: Newton's Method, graphing odd fractional roots

2008-02-19 by Juan C.


Hello there, I posted your second question in hp forums, and there is not an easy solution to that problem. Giancarlo Mattioni suggested this:

" If you don't mind, I'd point you to a comp.sys.hp48 thread (not that recent...):


http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.hp48/browse_frm/thread/375e156699e66

In summary, the "other half" of the graph can't be showed as it is "made of" complex values for negative x values.


I think you can catch the picture you want if you try to graph:

Y1(X)=|X^(5/3)| "


So I tried the IFTE function like this: IFTE(X>0,X^(5/3),-ABS(X^(5/3))), it isn't an elegant solution but it works.
