Thanks very much, numeric solutions are fine and find_root works great for
two equations. However, I'm having trouble solving where I just want to set
my equation equal to a constant:
(%i50) find_root(log2(n)=10^6, n, 0, 10^60);
log(n)
(%o50) find_root(------ = 1000000, n, 0.0, 1.0E+60)
log(2)
A numeric approximation to the solution of equations of the form log2(n) =
10^6 would also be fine. I have also tried:
(%i52) solve(log2(n)=10^6,n);
This produces a very, very long string of numbers.
Some background: I'd like to be able to automate comparing the running time
of algorithms to each other, for different times T, so I can sort a table of
them.
Thanks
