The next question has to do with a bisection process, which is very common in mathematical software. For example, the bisection method for finding a root of a function starts with an interval, [a, b], where f(a) and f(b) have different signs. It then computes the midpoint of the interval, c = (a + b) / 2. It then replaces either a or b by c so that the signs of the new f(a) and f(b) are still different, thus guaranteeing that the new interval [a, b], which is either the left or right half of the previous interval, still brackets a root. In the next 2 questions, assume B = 2 and p = 24. 13. If a = 1 and b = 2, how many times can bisection occur before there are no floating-point numbers in the interval (a, b) (in other words, a and b are adjacent floating-point numbers)?

this task in C# thank you very much.
In Python, with use of function and input parsing/ Make a method is_anagram_of(a,b) that tests if a is an anagram of b. A string a is an anagram of a string b, if it uses exactly the same letters, but the order can be different. Spaces are ignored, as well as capitalization. Examples of anagrams: "eleven plus two" - "twelve plus one" "William Shakespeare" - "I am a weakish speller" "Tom Marvolo Riddle" - "I am Lord Voldemort" "Anagrams" - "Ars manga" "television ads" - "enslave idiots" Counter examples: "bla" - "aalb" "cat" - "tact" Hint: Make a dictionary that holds how often a letter occurs in a word.
Computer Science You must count the number of strings of length 6 over the alphabet A = {x, y, z}. Any string of length 6 can be considered as a 6-tuple. For example, the string xyzy can be represented by the tuple (x,y,z,y). So the number of strings of length 6 over A equals the number of 6-tuples over A, which by product rule is N. Find N. (Use the following product rule for any finite set A and any natural number n : |A^n|=|A|^n)
Application of Linear Algebra in Computer Games Write the code for any computer game in Python (not very long not very short, not too easy not too complicated) and use some of the elements of Linear Algebra (vectors, matrices or etc.) in that code (mandatory).

Given the month and the year, you are required to print the Georgian Calendar' for that month. For example, the calendar for the month of September 2017 is: SM T W T FS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 The solution to this problem can be rather complex, so we will use functional abstraction to break it down into smaller parts. You are advised to implement and test each part (by defining a suitable main function) before moving on the the next part. You are to implement the following functions: 1. bool is leap_year(int year) to determine if a given year is leap. Note that not all years which are multiples of 4 are leap. Centuries are not leap unless they are multiples of 400. 2. int days_in_month(int month, int year) that takes the month (an integer from 1 to 12) and year, and returns number of days in the given month (an integer from 1 to 31). Note that you should use the is_leap_year function to determine if February has 28 or 29 days.…

Using C language. Write a program that reads two matrices of integers. It then generates the sum, difference and product of the two matrices. The sum of the two matrices of the same size is a matrix with elements that are the sums of the corresponding elements of the two given matrices. Addition is not defined for matrices of different sizes. If A and B are matrices of the same size, then we define subtraction as follows: A - B = A + (-B). Thus, to subtract matrix B from matrix A, we simply subtract corresponding elements. To multiply a matrix by another matrix we need to do the "dot product" of rows and columns. The "Dot Product" is where we multiply matching members, then sum up: (1, 2, 3) • (7, 9, 11) = 1×7 + 2x9 + 3x11 = 58 We match the 1st members (1 and 7), multiply them, likewise for the 2nd members (2 and 9) and the 3rd members (3 and 11), and finally sum them up.

mplement a Java program that applies the Newton-Raphson's method xn+1 = xn – f(xn) / f '(xn) to search the roots for this polynomial function ax6 – bx5 + cx4 – dx3+ ex2 – fx + g = 0. Fill out a, b, c, d, e, f, and g using the first 7 digits of your ID, respectively. For example, if ID is 4759284, the polynomial function would be 4x6 – 7x5 + 5x4 – 9x3+ 2x2 – 8x + 4 = 0. The program terminates when the difference between the new solution and the previous one is smaller than 0.00001 within 2000 iterations. Otherwise, it shows Not Found as the final solution.
