Help with Parsing Standard Form Quadratic (Negative Coefficients and Special Cases)

Hi All!

I’m working on building my parsing skills and made huge progress today. But I came across how literal everything needs to be. I want students to enter in standard form quadratics and have the terms parsed out for an animation I’m working on. Below is what I have so far. Any help would be appreciated!
