### Polynomial Root Analysis

For the given polynomial, perform the following tasks:

- Determine the maximum possible numbers of the positive and the negative roots.
- Identify all the integer roots.
- Find the non-integer real roots.
- Determine the complex roots.

The given polynomial is:

\[ a(x) = 2x^5 + 5x^4 + 11x^3 - 49x^2 - 31x + 26 \]

### Tasks:

1. **Find the maximum possible number of positive roots:**
   - [ ]
  
2. **Find the maximum possible number of negative roots:**
   - [ ]

3. **Identify all the integer roots:**
   - Example: \(x = 3\), \(x = -5\)
  
4. **Determine the non-integer real roots:**
   - Example: \(x = 3\), \(x = -5\)

5. **Determine the complex roots:**
   - Example: \(x = 3\), \(x = -5\)
    
### Instructions for completing the table:

1. For each category above (positive roots, negative roots, integer roots, non-integer real roots, and complex roots), analyze the polynomial to find the respective values.
2. Fill in the provided boxes with the correct values for the maximum possible numbers and the identified roots.
