What? The findroot code reads:

I don't usually like to say "why bother", but given 9vx could be

Just to add more complications ;)
Did you choose the word "complications" because in watchmaking it
denotes extra (and often near-pointless) features? :D
In the minute space within a wristwatch complications are wonderful
things, particularly when the whole watch is mechanical, but in a

today is first and foremost art.
Speaking of watches, I can't resist sharing these for those who have
time to waste:

I wonder if anything is signified by the seeming inability of the
watchmaking fraternity to make a simple website? MB&F are about the
most seminal group in the field, but they use flash for a very simple
