WATSON?S METHOD OF SOLVING A QUINTIC EQUATION
Watson?s method for determining the roots of a solvable quintic equation in radical form is examined in complete detail. New methods in the spirit of Watson are constructed to cover those exceptional cases to which Watson?s original method does not apply, thereby making Watson?s method completely general. Examples illustrating the various cases that arise are presented.
