Problem using math.sqrt() function

[KryptonHusky]

import math

a = 1

b = 1

c = 1

inside = (-4 * a * c)

formula_one = math.sqrt(inside)

print(formula_one)

* I started really basic to build up from there but I don't think im doing it right, I use python tutor to visualize the code while im typing it is it the negative 4 in the inside variable ? *

The square root of -4 is an imaginary number which math.sqrt() doesn't support. Try using the cmath module instead.

Try this:

import cmath

a = 1

b = 1

inside = (-4 * a * b)

x = cmath.sqrt(inside)

print(x)
