SQRT shoot --- Introduction ---

This is a visual exercise on the complex numbers: any non-zero complex number has exactly n complex roots of degree n, for libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/Lib/text.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/Lib/dir.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/wims.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/variables.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/var.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/test.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/texmath.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/score.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/rawmath.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/pedia.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/matrix.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/mathml.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/mathfonts.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/log.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/lines.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/insmath.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/html.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/files.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/exec.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/exam.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/evalue.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/config.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/compare.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/cleaning.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/calc.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) libgcov profiling error:/var/lib/wims/src/auth.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 14.2 (release) (B42*) got 12.2 (release) (B22*) n1.

You are shown the plane of complex numbers, together with a point in this plane representing a complex number z. And you have only to click (shoot) on the complex plane, at the points representing the (square, cubic, quartic, or quintic) roots of z. You will have a score computed in function of the average precision of your shots.
