Quadratic Equation Solver

This project demonstrates how to solve quadratic equations using block-based programming in PictoBlox. The program accepts the coefficients a, b, and c from the user, calculates the discriminant (b² − 4ac), and determines the nature of the roots. Based on the discriminant value, it displays whether the equation has two distinct real roots, one repeated real root, or two complex roots. It then calculates and displays the appropriate solutions using the quadratic formula. This project helps learners understand quadratic equations while developing logical thinking and programming skills through a visual coding environment.

PictoBlox is an educational block-based coding software designed to make programming, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and robotics accessible for beginners, primarily children aged 8 and up. It is built on a Scratch-like interface, utilizing a simple drag-and-drop system that eliminates the need to memorize complex syntax.

The platform goes beyond basic animation and games by integrating tools for AI, Machine Learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT). Students can use dedicated extensions for tasks like face and speech recognition, training custom ML models, and programming hardware such as Arduino, ESP32, and the Quarky robot. This focus on physical computing and AI allows users to create real-world projects, enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and providing a seamless transition to text-based coding languages like Python.

The first step is to add relevant sprites and backdrop to code.

Now the second step is to code the sprites individually
