Objective: We will create a program that calculates the quadratic formula given user input
- Create a program, where you prompt the user (ask the user for input) for variables a, b, and c
- Calculate both real solutions to the quadratic equation
- Print the quadratic equation: a*x^2 + b*x + c
- Print the two real solutions
HINT: exponentiation: x**y (x to the y power)
- CHALLENGE: check if the solutions are real or imaginary
- CHALLENGE2: print both solutions even if imaginary
