Chapter 3, Problem 2PP

(This Project requires that you know some basic facts about complex numbers, so it is only appropriate if you have studied complex numbers in some mathematics class.)

Write a C++ program that solves a quadratic equation to find its roots. The roots of a quadratic equation

ax2 + bx + c = 0

(where a is not zero) are given by the formula

(−b ± sqrt(b2 − 4ac)) / 2a

The value of the discriminant (b2 − 4ac) determines the nature of roots. If the value of the discriminant is zero, then the equation has a single real root. If the value of the discriminant is positive then the equation has two real roots. If the value of the discriminant is negative, then the equation has two complex roots.

The program takes values of a, b, and c as input and outputs the roots. Be creative in how you output complex roots. Include a loop that allows the user to repeat this calculation for new input values until the user says she or he wants to end the program.

CODE USING C++ We've already tried comparing 3 numbers to see the largest among all, so let's try a more complicated mission where we locate where among the 5-digit integer is the largest one. There are only 4 possible cases for this mission: if the largest digit is the first digit, print "Leftmost" if the largest digit is the third digit, print "Middle" if the largest digit is the last digit, print "Rightmost" if none of the above is correct, print "Unknown" Now, show me how far you've understood your lessons! Input A line containing a five-digit integer. 14632 Output A line containing a string. Middle
