Quadratic Master is the best app for solving and learning quadratic equations, inequations, and functions on your iPhone. Whether you are a high-school student currently learning about quadratics in your math class or somebody who needs to solve quadratic functions on a regular basis, Quadratic Master is for you. Main benefits: • Save time on your math homework • Learn about quadratics in just a fraction of time • Share solutions with your classmates. Free version offers: • Quadratic equation solver (roots, discriminant, factorization) • Formulas and guide for manually solving quadratic equations • Quadratic inequation solver Quadratic function solver (Vertex form) 3D rotating model of parabola for better understanding of quadratics in geometry Full version provides: • Detailed solution for quadratic equations • Quadratic function solver - general and factored form • Explanations and formulas for all quadratic function properties • Quadratic inequation solver with ≥ and ≤ inequality • Graph mixer - the perfect tool to play with and explore quadratic function graphs Rapid-fast solving with Single-digit input mode The full version is available for a small one-time fee. - - - - - I’ve built Quadratic Master back in 2009 when I was in high school and I was learning about quadratic equations in my math class. It is the first app I’ve ever built, and at the risk of sounding cheesy - it still holds a special place in my heart. Even though it was never a significant moneymaker, I’ve kept it updated throughout the years. And I’m happy to say that it has attained over 95.000 downloads to date. If you enjoy using the app, please consider buying the full version. Thank you. - Lukas Petr, author of Quadratic Master

About

Polynomial

Features
Read full description

The PolynomialSolver is carefully designed to be a simple and elegant app. Easy to use, easy to understand, simple and effective It solves (finds all the roots) polynomials of any order (any degree). Roots can be real, complex or combination of both. No problem. This app has you covered. To find all the solutions, it uses Aberth Ehrlich algorithm for higher order polynomials. The polynomial is beautifully presented in mathematical format. You can also solve multiple polynomials at once. You can also share the polynomial and its solution. Perform the polynomial division to find the quotient and remainder. This app also plots beautiful graph of the polynomial(s) so that you can visualize the solution in the graph. The graph can be shared with other or it can be saved locally on your device. It automatically saves your hard work locally on your device so you can come back and pick up from where you left off as your great effort will not be lost. This is a perfect app if you are a student learning to solve these kind of equations. There is also a Study page to help you with learning some important polynomial concepts. This is an app for all student groups. From high school to college to university students. Be creative. Enjoy the app!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Polynomial at none against Quadratic Master's 1. Polynomial also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months) and device support (3 vs 1). Quadratic Master's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
