Chapter 3.4, Problem 8E
Program Plan Intro

Program plan:

  1. The variable x and y of type int are used to accept the value of x and y.
  2. The variable distance of type float is used to calculate shortest driving distance across the fields.
  3. The function sqrt is used to calculate square root of a number.

Program description:

The main purpose of the program is to accept the values of x and y and then calculate and display the shortest driving distance across the fields using given formula.

(Computer mini-project) Area of a unit circle equals rt. Cover a circle with a 2 by 2 square and follow Algorithm 5.5 to estimate number Tt based on 100, 1,000, and 10,000 random numbers. Compare results with the exact value t = 3.14159265358... and comment on precision. %3D Please build an algorithm, test it and explain the results. Please include code. 351 /5,000
2. (Guess the Number) Write a C program that plays the game of "guess the number" as fol- lows: Your program chooses the number to be guessed by selecting an integer at random in the range 1 to 1000. The program then types: 5.32 I have a number between 1 and 1000. Can you guess my number? Please type your first guess. The player then types a first guess. The program responds with one of the following: 1. Excellent! You guessed the number! Would you like to play again (y or n)? 2. Too low. Try again. 3. Too high. Try again. If the player's guess is incorrect, your program should loop until the player finally gets the number right. Your program should keep telling the player Too high or Too low to help the player “zero in" on the correct answer. [Note: The searching technique employed in this problem is called binary search. We'll say more about this in the next problem.]
