To apply uniroot I don't even know the interval values... Does numerical
methods help me? Or any other method?

Hi R,
I have a 100th order equation for which I need to solve the value for x. Is
there a package to do this?
For example my equation is:
(x^100 )- (2*x^99) +(10*x^50)+.............. +(6*x ) = 4000
I have only one unknown value and that is x. How do I solve for this?
uniroot() will find one root. If you want all of them, I don't know
what is available.

polyroot() is built for this, but it stops at 48th degree polynomials,
at least as currently implemented. Not sure that it (or anything else)
would be stable beyond that limit. YACAS perhaps?
