Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
double a, b, c, x1, x2;
a = 0; b = 0; c = 0;
if(!(argv[1])||(argv[1][0]=='/'&&argv[1][1]=='?'))
{
printf("QUAD A B C\nTo solve quadratics in the form
Ax^2+Bx+C=0");
return 0;
}
if(argc!=4)
{
printf("Usage error: Must be QUAD a b c for any quadratic
ax^2+bx+c=0");
return 0;
}
a = strtod(argv[1],0);
b = strtod(argv[2],0);
c = strtod(argv[3],0);
if(a==0)
{
printf("A cannot be 0");
return 0;
}
//printf("%f %f %f\n",a,b,c);
if(((b*b)-(4*a*c))<0)
{
printf("Nonreal roots\n");
return 0;
}
x1 = (-b+sqrt((b*b)-(4*a*c)))/(2*a);
x2 = (-b-sqrt((b*b)-(4*a*c)))/(2*a);
printf("x[1] = %f\n",x1);
printf("x[2] = %f\n",x2);
return 0;
}
I know that the checking for whether argv[1] = "/?" was a little crude but other than that it's awesome, I think.
