The shortest-route technique would best be used to determine the amount of LAN network wiring within a building. determine the path for a truck making frequent but repeatable drops. determine the number of units to ship from each source to each destination. minimize the amount of traffic flow on a busy highway.

Consider the following statements: #include #include class temporary { private: string description; double first; double second; public: temporary(string = "", double = 0.0, double = 0.0); void set(string, double, double); double manipulate(); void get(string& , double& , double& ); void setdescription(string); void setfirst(double); void setsecond(double); }; write the definition of the member function set() so that the instance variables are set according to the parameters. write the definition of the constructor so that it initializes the instance variables using the function set() write the definition of the member function manipulate() that returns a decimal number (double) as follows: if the value of description is "rectangle", it returns first * second if the value of description is "circle" it returns the area of a circle with radius first if the value of description is "cylinder" it returns the volume of a cylinder with radius first and height second. hint: the volume of a cylinder is simply the area of the circle at the base times the height. if the value of description is "sphere" it returns the volume of the sphere with radius first. otherwise it returns -1.0;

1. package newton’s method for approximating square roots (case study 3.6) in a function named newton. this function expects the input number as an argument and returns the estimate of its square root. the script should also include a main function that allows the user to compute square roots of inputs until she presses the enter/return key. 2. convert newton’s method for approximating square roots in project 1 to a recursive function named newton. (hint: the estimate of the square root should be passed as a second argument to the function.) 3. elena complains that the recursive newton function in project 2 includes an extra argument for the estimate. the function’s users should not have to provide this value, which is always the same, when they call this function. modify the definition of the function so that it uses a keyword parameter with the appropriate default value for this argument, and call the function without a second argument to demonstrate that it solves this problem. 4. restructure newton’s method (case study 3.6) by decomposing it into three cooperating functions. the newton function can use either the recursive strategy of project 1 or the iterative strategy of case study 3.6. the task of testing for the limit is assigned to a function named limitreached, whereas the task of computing a new approximation is assigned to a function named improveestimate. each function expects the relevant arguments and returns an appropriate value. 5. a list is sorted in ascending order if it is empty or each item except the last one is less than or equal to its successor. define a predicate issorted that expects a list as an argument and returns true if the list is sorted, or returns false otherwise. (hint: for a list of length 2 or greater, loop through the list and compare pairs of items, from left to right, and return false if the first item in a pair is greater.)
