Summary
In [3], paragraph 6, the author showed how to find the zeros of a polynomial with the aid of the QD-Algorithm. The method required a certain rational function to be developed into a continued fraction of Stieltjes type to give the starting values for the QD-Algorithm. In the present paper the author shows how starting values can be obtainedwithout computing a continued fraction.
