Extract

As a rule graphical methods are more tedious than an analytical treatment; but they are welcomed by the weaker student on account of the illumination which they shed upon relations that would otherwise remain somewhat obscure.

Two notes which have recently appeared in the Mathematical Gazette dealing with the graphical discrimination of the cubic tempt me to publish methods of discussing the roots of the cubic and of the quartic which have been in use here for some time and have stood the test of experience.
