Well, how do you do it by hand?  Once you have the basic formula or
algorithm down, just translate it into python.  Math is math.  We can
answer specific questions of course.  Like, how would I represent the
equation in python?  Well put each term in a variable.  For example,
3x^2-2x+4 = 0, you would store the 3, 2, and 4 in variables.  Then run
your formula on them.
