<h3>
Description:
</h3>
At the moment two kinds of equations
can be solved using <tt> Solve</tt>. Furthermore it is possible to
compute the roots of a polynomial.

<h3>
Example:
</h3>
Compute all x,y \in Z with
x^3 + x^2 y - 6 x y^2 + 2 y^3 = 2:
<pre>

kash> t := Thue( [1, 1, -6, 2] );
X^3 + X^2 Y - 6 X Y^2 + 2 Y^3
kash> Solve(t, 2);
> [ [ -724, -411 ], [ -4, -11 ], [ -3, 1 ], [ -1, -1 ], [ 0, 1 ], [ 2, 1 ] ]
