Derivation

1. Split input into 3 regimes

2. if b < -5.571070222109471e+156 or 2.9914658520063943e-176 < b < 4.678783870646951e+107

   1. Initial program 20.8

      \[\begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \ge 0.0:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{2 \cdot c}{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}\\ \end{array}\]
