Program 2

The document outlines a program to compute the roots of a quadratic equation based on user-provided coefficients. It includes an algorithm and a C program that handles various cases: when both coefficients are zero, when the equation is linear, and when the roots are real or complex. The program prints appropriate messages based on the nature of the roots calculated.

PROGRAM 2:

Compute the roots of a quadratic equation by accepting the coefficients.


Print appropriate messages.
ALGORITHM:
STEP 1: START
STEP 2: Read a, b, c
STEP 3: if a=0 and b=0 then print “Roots cannot be computed” goto step 9
STEP 4: if (a==0) then
root1= -c/b
print root1,goto step 9
STEP 5: Calculate the discriminant value, d = b*b-4*a*c
STEP 6: if(d==0) then root1=root2 =-b/(2*a);
print root1 and root2, goto step 9
STEP 7: if(d>0) then

root1=(-b+sqrt(d))/(2*a);
root2=(-b-sqrt(d))/(2*a);
print root1 and print root2, goto step 9
STEP 8: if(d<0) then
real=-b/(2*a)
img=sqrt(fabs(d))/(2*a)
root1=real+i(imag)
root2=real-i(imag)
Print root1 and root2,goto step 9
STEP 9: STOP
