Hi Barton,
I had tried that, but unfortunately, I wrote, instead of %i1:
load(topoly_solver)$
which lead to no solutions. I then corrected the mistake and loaded
to_poly_solver, but then I got only one solution:
(%o4) [[Q = -(2^(3/2)+1)*q/4]]
To get the solution you got, I had to restart Maxima and load only
to_poly_solver.
Shouldn't topoly_solver be removed or renamed to avoid confusion?
The fact that they are not documented in the manual do not help either.
Cheers,
Jaime
