## Description
 | 
						|
<section id='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.
