The scenario
A student or solver inputs coefficients a, b, c and follows decision branches for the discriminant to output real or complex roots using the quadratic formula.
What is in this drawing
Read the decisions behind it.
01
Check if a = 0 to ensure the equation is quadratic
02
Evaluate discriminant D = b^2 - 4ac
03
Branch on D < 0, D = 0, or D > 0
Use when teaching or implementing the quadratic formula for solving ax^2 + bx + c = 0, especially in algebra or programming contexts.
