Displaying wrong result . Why?

#include <iostream> #include <cmath> using namespace std; int main() { int a,b,c; cin >>a; cin >>b; // values // cin >>c; int d = sqrt((b*b)-(4*a*c)); // discriminant // int alpha = -b+d/2*a; //formula // int beeta = -b-d/2*a; cout <<"D="<<d<<endl; cout <<"alpha="<<alpha<<endl; cout <<"beeta="<<beeta<<endl; return 0; }

Becz you have written int alpha = -b+d/2a and same for beta Here you need to put round bracket u dividing value of d only It should be like this (-b +d)/2a ...

Not too sure, but you might need to check whether the use of `float` or `double` as type for <a>, <b> and <c> helps. I'm just guessing it was due to integer division issue. (Edit) Might be considerable to rather define all variables involved in the calculation as floating point type.

It is only working for few equations.

These lines are incorrect: int alpha = -b+d/2*a; /7/formula // int beeta = -b-d/2*a; It is an error in order of operations. Understand that -b+d/2*a is interpreted as -b+(d/2)*a. Change them to: int alpha = (-b+d)/(2*a); /7/formula // int beeta = (-b-d)/(2*a); And as already pointed out, it is likely a better choice to use floats instead of ints if accuracy is important.
