The Discriminant serves as an important factor within quadratic equations, used to decipher the type of roots. It can be computed using the formula b² - 4ac from the equation ax²+bx+c=0. A positive discriminant suggests the presence of two real and unique roots, if it's zero, it indicates two real and same roots, and negative value implies the roots are complex.
