I need recommendation about complex analysis book. As I'm electrical eng. student, it should cover everything one engineer need to know about that mathematical field, but without strict mathematical formalism :)
When I solve a quadratic equation I need to find a Discriminant. If D>0 I have no problem. I can find x1 and x2. And when I draw a parabola I can see the x1 and x2 on a X-line.
But when D<0 I don't understand where I can find x1 and x2 on a plot of function.
For example for 5x2+2x+1=0
