de-sig, formatting, better title

Oct 31, 2012 at 21:38 comment added Daniel Lichtblau Of course it would help to know what 'var' is (I assume lrealsols is 8). It might be that you are mismatching your variables before you do the actual substitution.
Oct 31, 2012 at 21:36 comment added Daniel Lichtblau Not sure what you did. The max residual I see is around 10^(-9). In[90]:= Length[sol] Out[90]= 8 In[92]:= Max[Abs[e /. sol]] Out[92]= 9.207064104217862*^-10
Oct 31, 2012 at 21:27 comment added b.gates.you.know.what @dbm You can verify that if you substitute the solution sol back into the equation e you get all zeros (no -1); does this solve your problem ?
Oct 31, 2012 at 21:16 comment added Ajasja Please improve the title of the question. (Now it's much to general...)
Oct 31, 2012 at 21:12 comment added dbm b.gatessucks and chris, thanks for your comments. My problem is different actually. The problem is that some of the equations at the first 6 solutions is -1, and not zero (or some small number). So Chop etc. is not going to help.d
Oct 31, 2012 at 21:05 comment added chris or if you want to be super sure, 'ee=e// Rationalize[#, 0.00000001] &; sol = Solve[Thread[ee == 0], Variables[ee]]; ee /. sol // N[#, 20] & // Chop'
Oct 31, 2012 at 20:59 comment added chris Welcome to Mathematica.SE! I suggest the following: 1) As you receive help, try to give it too, by answering questions in your area of expertise. 2)Read the FAQs! 3) When you see good Q&A, vote them up by clicking the gray triangles, because the credibility of the system is based on the reputation gained by users sharing their knowledge. ALSO, remember to accept the answer, if any, that solves your problem, by clicking the checkmark sign`
Oct 31, 2012 at 20:58 comment added b.gates.you.know.what Try e /. sol // Chop.
