The following computer program seeks to find an integer solution to the Freundenstein and Roth system on page 11 of Cao [2, page 11, Problem 14, extended Freundenstein and Roth function (n is even)]--http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/251587. See also La Cruz et al. [5, page 28, Test function 37]–http://www.ime.unicamp.br/~martinez/lmrreport.pdf. The present paper considers the case of 32760 equations with 32760 general integer variables. One notes the starting vectors, 94 A(KK) = 4 + FIX(RND * 2.9); one also notes lines 426 and line 428, which are 426 IF X(J44) < 3 THEN X(J44) = 3 and 428 IF X(J44) > 7 THEN X(J44) = 7, respectively.

Above there is no rounding by hand; it is just straight copying by hand from the screen.
Of the 32760 unknowns, only the 15 A’s of line 1891 and line 1897 are shown above.
On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM and with qb64v1000-win [11], the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ= -32000 was 40 minutes.
