ToRules

FilledSmallSquare ToRules[eqns] takes logical combinations of equations, in the form generated by Roots and Reduce, and converts them to lists of rules, of the form produced by Solve.

FilledSmallSquare Example: ToRules[x==1 || x==2] LongRightArrow.
FilledSmallSquare ToRules discards nonequalities (!=), and thus gives only "generic" solutions.
FilledSmallSquare See The Mathematica Book on the web: Section 3.4.1.
