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.)

Word vocabulary words: print, proofread, status line, graphics, font effects, left margin, justification, line spacing, copy/paste, data. review words: font point, bold, save, center, error. fill in the correct word for the definition and then transfer the letters to the appropriate spot by number. some numbers will be found multiple times. you will end up with a quotation about…… what else? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 k 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 8 27 28 29 w 31 32 k 34 35 36 w h 39 40 41 42 8 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 .1. a software function that records keystrokes on a disk or drive so information can be 5 4 52 9 later retrieved. p n 2. to produce a paper copy of information. 10 7 12u n 3. a display that shows the location of the cursor, pages, etc. 45 46 18 27 36 20 42p4. pictures or images, located in clip art or other files. 6 24 44 28 34 49 555. any mis-stroke of a key. 47 41 48 2 10 n6. allows major changes to the font such as shadow, emboss, etc. 21 25 46 35 23 21 29 14 22 17 n7. a feature that centers lines of text horizontally. 49 53 46 9 51 p8. size of the font 31 16 22 b l 9. a feature that prints designated text darker than the rest to add emphasis. 32 3 . p10. to compare copy on a display screen or printout to the original 24 39 25 23 54 9 50 3 and correct errors. j un 11. a feature that allows text to be aligned at the left 11 12 7 21 16 49 40 46 34 2 and right margins. leftn 12. amount of blank space on the left side of the paper. 8 18 41 6 34 linen 13. number of blank lines between lines of text. 17 4 49 13 1914. any information inputted into the computer. 3 4 46 44 p /p15. feature that duplicates text from one location and places it in another.

Assume that there is a 4% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. if all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk drive, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive? b. if copies of all your computer data are stored on three independent hard disk drives, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?
