For each of the following Unix system calls, give a condition that may cause it to fail: open, read, fork, execve, unlink. (Hint: you can explore the error semantics of these system calls online or using man on the linux server, e. g., man 2 fork.)

Allison and her group have completed the data entry for their spreadsheet project. they are in the process of formatting the data to make it easier to read and understand. the title is located in cell a5. the group has decided to merge cells a3: a7 to attempt to center the title over the data. after the merge, allison points out that it is not centered and looks bad. where would the title appear if allison unmerged the cells in an attempt to fix the title problem?

The volume v and paper surface area a of a conical paper cup are given by where r is the radius of the base of the cone and h is the height of the cone. a. by eliminating h, obtain the expression for a as a function of r and v. b. create a user-de ned function that accepts r as the only argument and computes a for a given value of v. declare v to be global within the function. c. for v ! 10 in.3 , use the function with the fminbnd function to compute the value of r that minimizes the area a. what is the corresponding value of the height h? investigate the sensitivity of the solution by plotting v versus r. how much can r vary about its optimal value before the area increases 10 percent above its minimum value?
