# QuarticRealPolynomial

Core/QuarticRealPolynomial.js 6
Defines functions for 4th order polynomial functions of one variable with only real coefficients.

### Methods

#### static Cesium.QuarticRealPolynomial.computeDiscriminant(a, b, c, d, e) → Number
Core/QuarticRealPolynomial.js 23

Provides the discriminant of the quartic equation from the supplied coefficients.

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`a` | Number | The coefficient of the 4th order monomial.
`b` | Number | The coefficient of the 3rd order monomial.
`c` | Number | The coefficient of the 2nd order monomial.
`d` | Number | The coefficient of the 1st order monomial.
`e` | Number | The coefficient of the 0th order monomial.

##### Returns:

The value of the discriminant.
