Mr. Goh's students are working in groups to create shared Google Sites (webpages) to showcase their writing throughout the schoo

a)

C++

#include<iostream>  

using namespace std;  

int factorial(int num)  {  

   if (num == 0)  

       return 1;  

   return num * factorial(num - 1);  }    

int main()  {  

   int integer;

   cout<<"Enter a non negative integer: ";

   cin>>integer;

   cout<< "Factorial of "<< integer<<" is "<< factorial(integer)<< endl;  }

Python:

def factorial(num):  

   if num == 0:  

       return 1

   return num * factorial(num-1)  

integer = int(input("Enter a non negative integer: "))  

print("Factorial of", integer, "is", factorial(integer))

b)

C++

#include <iostream>  

using namespace std;

double factorial(int number) {  

if (number == 0)  

 return 1;  

return number * factorial(number - 1); }  

double estimate_e(int num){

    double e = 1;

    for(int i = 1; i < num; i++)

     e = e + 1/factorial(i);

     cout<<"e: "<< e; }  

int main(){

int term;

cout<<"Enter a term to evaluate: ";

cin>>term;

estimate_e(term);}

Python:

def factorial(number):  

   if number == 0:  

       return 1

   return number * factorial(number-1)  

def estimate_e(term):

   if not term:

       return 0

   else:

       return (1 / factorial(term-1)) + estimate_e(term-1)

number = int(input("Enter how many terms to evaluate "))

print("e: ", estimate_e(number))

c)

C++

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(){

   float terms, sumSeries, series;

   int i, number;

   cout << " Input the value of x: ";

   cin >> number;

   cout << " Input number of terms: ";

   cin >> terms;

   sumSeries = 1;

   series = 1;

   for (i = 1; i < terms; i++)      {

       series = series * number / (float)i;

       sumSeries = sumSeries + series;     }

   cout << " The sum  is: " << sumSeries << endl;  }  

Python    

def ePowerx(number,terms):

   sumSeries = 1

   series =1

   for x in range(1,terms):

       series = series * number / x;

       sumSeries = sumSeries + series;

   return sumSeries    

num = int(input("Enter a number: "))

term=int(input("Enter a number: "))

print("e^x: ",ePowerx(num,term))

Explanation:

a)

The program includes a factorial method that takes a number as an argument and calculates its factorial using recursion. For instance, if number = 3

The base case occurs at  if (number == 0)

and the recursion is handled with return number * factorial(number - 1);  

With number = 3 not equaling zero, the function calls itself recursively to get the factorial of 3

return 3* factorial(3- 1);

3 * factorial(2)

3* [2* factorial(2- 1) ]

3 * 2* [ factorial(1)]

3 * 2 * [1* factorial(1- 1) ]

3 * 2 * 1* [factorial(0)]

At this point at factorial(0), the base condition is satisfied as number==0, so factorial(0) returns 1

The resulting output is:

3 * 2 * 1* 1

yielding 6

So, the final program output will be

Factorial of 3 is 6

b)

The estimate_e method takes a number, termed as num, which signifies the term to estimate the mathematical constant e

The for loop extends through each term. For example, if num is set to 3

Then the core statement:

e = e + 1/factorial(i);  

The preceding calculation works as:

e = 1 + 1/1! +1/2!

Since the term count is 3

Initially, e is set to 1

i is initialized at 1

Inserting this into the calculation gives us:

e = 1 + 1/factorial(1)

The factorial function computes and returns 1, as the factorial of 1 is 1. Thus,

e = 1 + 1/1

This results in e = 2

Proceeding to the next iteration, where i = 2 and e = 2, we calculate e = 2 + 1/factorial(2)

Thus, e = 2 + 1/2 results in e = 2.5

Following to the next iteration with i = 3, we have e = 3 + 1/factorial(3)

This yields e = 3 + 1/6 resulting in approximately e = 3.16666

Therefore, the output is:

c)

This program calculates the sum of a series based on the formula:

e^x = 1 + x/1! + x^2/2! + x^3/3! +...

The for loop iterates according to the number set for terms. Assuming x is 2, and the number of terms is set to 3, the series would read:

e^2 = 1 + 2/1! + 2^2/2!

In this setup: number = 2 and terms = 3

Initial values for series and sumSeries are both 1

Starting with i equal to 1, the update statement series = series * number / (float)i; applies as follows:series = 1 * 2 /1 results in series = 2

Then, for sumSeries, we have sumSeries = sumSeries + series; Outputs sumSeries as 1 + 2, yielding 3

Continuing to the next iteration: i=2, with series = 2 and sumSeries = 3, we recalculate as series = 2 * 2/2 imposing series = 2 again. Thus, we find: sumSeries = 3 + 2 giving a final sumSeries value of 5

Answer:

Below is the Python code:

stock_prices = input().split() #this takes input and separates it into a list

for price in stock_prices: #this loops through each stock price

   print("$",price) #this outputs each stock price prefixed by a dollar sign

Explanation:

The logic behind the program is clearly outlined in the attached comments. To illustrate the program's workings, let's consider an example:

Imagine the user inputs the stock_prices values of

34.62 76.30 85.05

The input() method captures user input, while the split() method divides the input string, providing a list of strings as:

['34.62', '76.30', '85.05']

Following that, the loop statement for price in stock_prices: iterates through each item in the list, and print("$",price) displays each value from the list on the output screen with a dollar sign, as follows:

$ 34.62                                                                                                            

$ 76.30                                                                                                            

$ 85.05

Clarification:

There have historically been (and continue to be) operating systems lacking any graphical user interface at all, such as some Unix variants.
