Real Roots of Cubic Equations Guide

This document outlines an algorithm to find the real roots of a cubic equation of the form ax3 + bx2 + cx + d = 0. It begins by defining several variables in terms of the coefficients a, b, c, and d. It then uses these variables to determine the real roots through a series of conditional statements checking whether certain values are equal to 0 or other thresholds. The real roots are provided as solutions to the cubic equation.
