Explanation of Solution

Instruction:

When a command is given to the computer by the user is called as instruction.

Machine Instruction cycle:

  • Computer processor processes certain steps for the instructions that are received in the form of machine instructions.
  • The instructions that are received are processed in step by step manner based on the direction that is received from the control unit.
  • Machine instruction cycle consists of different phases in reading, interpreting the instructions that are received in the form of machine language, executing the instruction code and finally storing that code.
  • The below are the four steps of the machine instruction cycle
    • Fetch
    • Decode
    • Execute
    • Store
  • The above mentioned steps are carried out in a repeated way to complete the instruction that is given to the computer.
  • The entire process is carried out using a microprocessor.

Working of the machine cycle:

  • The instruction from the main memory is being fetched.
  • The instruction that is fetched from the memory gets decoded in the control unit.
  • The decoded instruction gets executed in the Arithmetic Logic unit.
  • After execution, the results are being stored back in to the main memory...

Methods (Ch6) - Review 1. (The MyRoot method) Below is a manual implementation of the Math.sqrt() method in Java. There are two methods, method #1 which calculates the square root for positive integers, and method #2, which calculates the square root of positive doubles (also works for integers). public class SquareRoot { public static void main(String[] args) { } // implement a loop of your choice here // Method that calculates the square root of integer variables public static double myRoot(int number) { double root; root=number/2; double root old; do { root old root; root (root_old+number/root_old)/2; } while (Math.abs(root_old-root)>1.8E-6); return root; } // Method that calculates the square root of double variables public static double myRoot(double number) { double root; root number/2; double root_old; do { root old root; root (root_old+number/root_old)/2; while (Math.abs (root_old-root)>1.0E-6); return root; } } Program-it-Yourself: In the main method, create a program that…
