Standard Output

Question 1

Write a program that solves a quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. The general quadratic equation is:

axx + bx + c = 0

The program should ask the user to enter values for a, b, and c. Next, it should calculate and print the solution to the standard output. For now you can assume a≠0.

Your program should ask for values like that:

Please enter the values of a, b, and c respectively:

Depending on the discriminant, one of the following three results shall be printed:

There are 2 solutions.

The solutions are: <first_solution> and <second_solution>

There is 1 solution.

The solution is: <solution>

There is no solution.

Your program should use user-defined functions, one for computing the discriminant, and one for computing the quadratic formula itself.

Question 2

A. Inclusive Education is about good teaching, a positive attitude and most often common sense, with an ultimate goal to develop a learner/child to reach his or her potential. Write an essay of approximately 2-3 pages discussing how you as an ECD teacher can make that possible. Consider the following:

1. The environment

2. Leaner profile/ Diagnostic profile

3. Support

B. During your TE, identify a child/learner(s) with barriers to learning (a barrier to learning is anything preventing a learner/child from reaching his/her potential) and explain how you went about making teaching and learning possible for that child/learner(s), taking into consideration the above-mentioned three aspects.
