MAT 121 :: Coding in Mathematics I

Assignment 3

February 12, 2024

Objective:
The objective of this assignment is to implement a program that solves a
quadratic equation of the form ax2 +bx+c = 0 using the specified programming
language. The emphasis is on handling basic input-output challenges.

Instructions:
1. Choose one of the following programming languages: Python, PHP, JavaScript,
C++, or Wolfram Language.
2. Implement a program that takes coefficients a, b, and c as input (only real
numbers) from the user.
3. Ensure proper validation for the input coefficients, including checking for
non-numeric inputs.
4. Calculate the roots (consider both real and complex) of the quadratic
equation using the quadratic formula:
√
−b ± b2 − 4ac
x=
2a
5. Display the roots as output. Clearly indicate if the roots are real or
complex.

Submission:
Submit the source code file (as .pdf) along with a brief explanation of your
implementation, highlighting any input-output challenges you faced and how
you addressed them.
