I am trying to find a nice function that wiil find the complex roots of a simple function. Unable to find one, I defined my own, which works fairly well... ExpandAll[Simplify[Solve[Factor[x^3-27, Extension->{I}]==0,z]]] (using the x^3-27 as an example). The newly defined function works pretty good, but for some reason, does not work well in finding the n roots of unity: (eg x^3-1). Any help as to why this is so would be appreciated. Or is there an easier way to obtain complex roots?
Thanks in advance,
Mitch Haas
