| # --description--
 | |
| 
 | |
| For an n-tuple of integers t = (a1, ..., an), let (x1, ..., xn) be the solutions of the polynomial equation xn + a1xn-1 + a2xn-2 + ... + an-1x + an = 0.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Consider the following two conditions: x1, ..., xn are all real. If x1, ..., xn are sorted, ⌊xi⌋ = i for 1 ≤ i ≤ n. (⌊·⌋: floor function.)
 | |
| 
 | |
| In the case of n = 4, there are 12 n-tuples of integers which satisfy both conditions. We define S(t) as the sum of the absolute values of the integers in t. For n = 4 we can verify that ∑S(t) = 2087 for all n-tuples t which satisfy both conditions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Find ∑S(t) for n = 7.

| ```js
 | |
| assert.strictEqual(euler438(), 2046409616809);
