from
Wikipedia
All numbers which can be obtained from the integers using a finite number of integer additions, subtractions, multiplications, divisions, and taking nth roots ( where n is a positive integer ) are algebraic.
The converse, however, is not true: there are algebraic numbers which cannot be obtained in this manner.
An example of such a number is the unique real root of the polynomial ( which is approximately 1. 167304 ).
