Whats wrong with my code?
Hello GDNet members,
I am sorta new to C++ and for my first program i tried to make a program that will solve the quadratic equation for me. After finishing my program and compiling and running, I tested it out. It didnt work... Here it is for those of you that can help.
Looks right (I didn''t read the whole thing), but your problem is probably as a result of the fact that all of your variables are ints. Ints only stores integers (meaning whole numbers), while most of the numbers involved in the quadratic equation are decimal numbers. Use double instead.

Yeah, clum is right.
But mink_trapper, aren''t you the guy you illegally downloaded Visual Studio...?

mink, your problem is here:
your function is supposed to return an int...it returns nothing....the rest of the program should work without a hitch, but man, you've got variables galore! Regardless of efficiency, the proggy should work once you work on your function.

Yea i am, and im sorry fo r it (I dont have it anymore, i deleted it)
EDIT: Whats a double? I dont think im ther in my book yet.

A double is a 64 bit floating point datatype
It can hold numbers in the range approximately +/- 10^308, with a precision of about 16 digits
Notice however, that precision will be lost when performing arithmetic operations on the numbers.
You could also use extended doubles (which are the native format of the fpu in most modern computers). They have a 64bit mantissa, and a 16bit exponent, making for a higher range and precision. (and they support none normalized values)
