Thanks for your help !
I got another problem with my function :
test <- function(x,bb0=-3,bb1=5,c0=2,r0=0) {
  ((exp(c0-r0)*(bb0+x)*(bb1-x))/((bb0+x+1)*(bb1-x-1))-1)}

With this :
curve(test(x),from=-10,to=10)

we can see that there are 2 roots : one in [3,4] and one in [5,10]
> uniroot(test,c(5, 10))$root
[1] 5.243265
> uniroot(test,c(3, 4))$root
[1] 3.069772

Even this works :
> uniroot(test,c(3, 10))$root
[1] 5.243263

but it's unfortunate that :
> uniroot(test3,c(-10, 10))$root
*Erreur dans uniroot(test3, c(-10, 10)) :
  les valeurs de f() aux points extrêmes ne sont pas de signe opposé*
doesn't work, because I have to find the root for c0 in [-10,10] but I can't
change the range at each loop:

I want to do something like this, do you have any ideas ?

> for (i in -10:10) {
+ z <- uniroot(test,c(-10, 10), c0=i)$root
+ print(z)}
