NumericSolutions -- solving systems of polynomial equalities

Description

NumericSolutions is a package for solving systems of polynomial equalities. It is used to compute the points in the affine variety V(I) of a zero dimensional ideal I. Note that this package can be used only to compute the solution to a system of polynomial equalities having a finite number of solutions (i.e., it can be used only if the ideal I is zero dimensional).
