Question

Write a python program that will calculate and output roots of a quadratic equation.

The formula will be written on the board in class.

 

Values for a, b and c should be input into three floating point variables.

Your program should first display:

 

Hello…

This program will ask you to enter 3 numbers

(a, b and c) that will be used in the quadratic formula to

calculate the roots of an equation.

 

Enter a value for   a

Enter a value for   b

Enter a value for   c

 

Validate your data  ( make sure a is not zero and b.b>4.a.c )

Your program should display:

 

            ***************************************

            *          Root 1 is        the value of root1             *

            *          Root 2 is        the value of root2             *          

            ***************************************

 

Use format to print root1 & root2 in a field of 7 positions with one digit after decimal point. (I’ll explain how to do this in class)

You must import the math module at the beginning of your program to be able to call the function math.sqrt.

 

import math
