I have a similar question of my own:
I want to get the weights where this equation has largest roots equal to
integers:g^3-g-w[n]=0
for prime weights:
w[n]=Prime[n]
b = Table[Table[x /. NSolve[x^3 - x - Prime[n] - 1 == 0.x][[m]], {m, 1,
3}], {n, 1, 10}]
MatrixForm[b]
c = Table[{n, Max[Table[Abs[x] /. Solve[x^3 - x -
Prime[n] - 1 == 0.x][[m]], {m, 1, 3}]]}, {n, 1, 20}]
ListPlot[c]
This doersn't work: it doesn't see them as Integers:
d = Flatten[Table[{n, If [IntegerQ[
Max[Table[Abs[x] /.
Solve[x^3 -
x - Prime[n] - 1 == 0.x][[m]], {m, 1, 3}]]], Max[
Table[Abs[x] /. Solve[x^3 - x - Prime[n] - 1 == 0.x][[
m]], {m, 1, 3}]], {}]}, {n, 1, 20}], 1]
That is in:
{{1, 1.6717}, {2, 1.79632}, {3, 2.}, {4, 2.16631}, {5,
2.43484}, {6, 2.5483}, {7, 2.74784}, {8, 2.83714}, {9,
3.}, {10, 3.21447}, {11, 3.27976}, {12, 3.4611}, {13,
3.5719}, {14, 3.62475}, {15, 3.72594}, {16, 3.86794}, {
17, 4.}, {18, 4.0421}, {19, 4.16331}, {20, 4.24028}}
I want output ( integer weights separated out):
{ {3, 2}, {9, 3}, {17, 4}}
