### 5.30.3 Exact values of rational roots of a polynomial :
rationalroot

rationalroot takes 1 or 3 arguments : a polynomial and optionally two real numbers α,β.

- If rationalroot has 1 argument, rationalroot returns the list of the value of the rational roots of the polynomial without multiplicity.
- If rationalroot has 3 arguments, rationalroot returns only the rational roots of the polynomial which are in the interval [α,β].
