Question

Write the program to solve quadratic equations, but if the discriminant is negative, output

Answer 1

Answer:

PROGRAM  QuadraticEquation Solver

  IMPLICIT  NONE

REAL :: a, b, c ;

  REA :: d ;

  REAL  :: root1, root2 ;

//read in the coefficients a, b and c

  READ(*,*)    a, b, c  

  WRITE(*,*)   'a = ', a

  WRITE(*,*)   'b = ', b

  WRITE(*,*)    'c = ', c

  WRITE(*,*)

// computing the square root of discriminant d

  d = b*b - 4.0*a*c

  IF (d >= 0.0) THEN              //checking if it is solvable?

     d     = SQRT(d)

     root1 = (-b + d)/(2.0*a)     // first root

     root2 = (-b - d)/(2.0*a)     // second root

     WRITE(*,*)  'Roots are ', root1, ' and ', root2

  ELSE                            //complex roots

     WRITE(*,*)  'There is no real roots!'

     WRITE(*,*)  'Discriminant = ', d

  END IF

END PROGRAM  QuadraticEquationSolver
