-
- If "roots" is of the form {{a_11,a_12,...a_1k},(a_21,a_22,...,a_2l},...}, set "trootlist" to
- {{a_11,a_12,...a_1k,1},(a_21,a_22,...,a_2l,1},...}.
-
- Note also that this is not good mathematica code;
-
- trootlist = {Join[#,{1}]&) /@ roots
-
- would be more understandable (to someone familiar with Mathematica).
