Anybody want to see my program?

[The Negotiator]

Not my first program but the first since I got a exe compiler.
It works out the quadratic roots.

I would appreciate somebody trying the following:

1
-6
9

It should come out x = 3 and x =3 but my friend uses XP emulation on his mac and it doesn't oddly. THough it does for me.

Cheers
Paul

PS I know it looks crap but we don't; get ANY marks for looks at the moment it seems.

i get.......x = 3 and x = 3

i get x=3 aswell

He gets an error - the same error as if there are no real root answers (i.e. try 1, 1, 10)- no idea why!

Also error is a = 0 (it's then not a quadratic!)

x=3 and x=3 for me

Nice little program that is, is some use to me anyways

Useless to me, absolutely useless lol, my "supercalc" does that but also does it for complex roots (i.e. b^2 - 4ac < 0).

Useful check for year 8-10 students to see if they are doing quadratic factorisation correctly.

i get x= 3 And x= 3
cool am a scientist now
