I am using the solve command in a proc to solve some simple equations. Is there an easy way of determining if the solution is an imaginary number? (basically I only want real solutions... sometimes the solutions will be in the form of a=b+1, i.e. in terms of another variable, and sometimes it will just be some number... once getting the solutions using something like ans:=solve(eqn,{vars}), how can I determine what type it is?
