Hello everybody, I've got a fourth degree polynomial which I would like to break into two second order polynomials. Unfortunately, the Factor function doesn't manage to do it, probably because it attempts to find all the roots of my polynomial. Is there a way to do this WITHOUT finding the roots ? Thanks in advance Stephane
