- We can assign a value to each character in a word based on their position in the alphabet (a = 1, b = 2, ..., z = 26). A balanced word is one where the sum of the values on the left side of the word equals the sum of the values on the right side. For odd-length words, the middle character (balance point) is ignored. Write a function that returns true if the word is balanced and false if it is not. Examples balance("zips") → true // "zips" = "zi|ps" "zips" = 26+9 | 16+19 = 35 35 = true balanced ("brake") → false // "brake" = "br|ke" = 2+18 11+5 = 2016 = false liarrow_forwardQuestion 2 factorial(n) = n (n-1) (n-2) .1.

- Write a function in MATLAB that has two inputs: - A shear load (as the first input) - A tensile load (as the second input) Have your function return one output, a string with the name of the lowest grade material from Table 1 that can handle those loads.arrow_forwardSolution please.arrow_forwardIn Matlab: Write a function that takes a month, day, and year as inputs and returns the number of days that have passed since January 1, 780, the year al-Khwarizmi, the "father of algebra", was born (include the 1/1/780 date as day 1). The function should include a subroutine to deal with all leap year calculations. The subroutine is a function that will take a year as an input and will return a 1 if that year is a leap year or a 0 if that year is not a leap year. As a check, the number of days between 1/1/780 and 6/21/2011 is 449,786. Shown below is your starter code with some pseudocode to get you started:arrow_forward
