Program to Calculate roots of 4th order algebraic equation of the form ax^4 + bx^3 + cx^2 + dx + e =

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Description : Calculates all roots( both complex and real ) of a fourth order algebraic equation of the form ax^4 + bx^3 + cx^2 + dx + e = 0 and
displays them. Employs OOPS.
