i am having trouble with this
I keep getting an error with this code can any one help me out
if ((b*b-4*a*c) < 0) && (a!=0)
if ((b*b-4*a*c) < 0) && (a!=0)

You need a ) at the end, that will end the if()

Think thats right.
I am having trouble getting the correct answers with tis code. can anyone check to see if i have it correct.

I believe the problem are the missing parentheses around 2*a in these lines:

You should add the parentheses around 2*a...

I ran the program and got the correct answer. I did have to add some lines to output x1 and x2.
