In this tutorial we learn how to install mpsolve in Fedora 36. mpsolve is Multiprecision polynomial solver

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install mpsolve on Fedora 36.

What is mpsolve

MPSolve stands for Multiprecision Polynomial SOLVEr. It aims to provide an easy to use universal blackbox for solving polynomials and secular equations. Its features include - Arbitrary precision approximation. - Guaranteed inclusion radii for the results. - Exploiting of polynomial structures as well as coefficients in a particular domain (i.e. integers or rationals). - It can be specialized for specific classes of polynomials. As an example, the roots of the Mandelbrot polynomial of degree 2,097,151 were computed in about 10 days on a dual Xeon server. This package contains command-line interfaces to mpsolve.

We can use yum or dnf to install mpsolve on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install mpsolve.
