I don't actually have the formulas for the qubic and quartic equations, but my calc professor told us in class that the cubic formula would take an entire chalkboard if you wrote really small, and the quartic equation would take three chalkboards. This would probably be more trouble and space than it is worth. I think POLY does a fairly good job of it, or solver (newton's method), and saves a lot of space.
