<p style="color: grey"> Perl recipe 579083 by <a href="/recipes/users/4178746/">Roger Mbiama Assogo</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/root/">root</a>). </p> <p>"This module is a true drop-in replacement for IO::Socket::INET that \ uses SSL to encrypt data before it is transferred to a remote server \ or client. IO::Socket::SSL supports all the extra features that one \ needs to write a full-featured SSL client or server application: \ multiple SSL contexts, cipher selection, certificate verification, and \ SSL version selection. As an extra bonus, it works perfectly with \ mod_perl."</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Bash recipe 578934 by <a href="/recipes/users/4177147/">Barry Walker</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/arithmetic/">arithmetic</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/bash/">bash</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/check/">check</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/checker/">checker</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/cygwin/">cygwin</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/macbook_pro/">macbook_pro</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/math/">math</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/mathematics/">mathematics</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/perfect/">perfect</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/root/">root</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/square/">square</a>). </p> <p>A recent Python upload here gave me the inspiration to do a bash version... This is a little tongue-in-cheek but an enjoyable bit of fun.</p> <p>It took around 11 seconds to prove 90000000000 had a perfect square of 300000...</p> <p>It is a stand alone program and has a degree of INPUT error correction...</p> <p>It was done on a MacBook Pro, OSX 10.7.5, default bash terminal and should work on Linux flavours but it is untested...</p> <p>Enjoy finding simple solutions to often very difficult problems...</p> <p>Bazza...</p>

For instance if one of the roots in the polynomial was irrational, the polynomial would not be factored correctly. </p>
