    algebraic number of degree 3

    any algebraic number of degree 3, while expressed using integers, +-*/ and roots, requires a nth root, where n>3 or requires at least two roots (ie two square roots, two cube roots, one of each, etc)

    Did you know that...
    The probability that a random rational number has an even denominator is 1/3 (Salamin and Gosper 1972)? This result is independently verified by me (2002)!

    for what?
    "Can't" and "shouldn't" are two totally separate things.

    All questions should be answered. All answers should be true. That is why I post.
