Program Plan Intro

Program Plan:

  • Include required header files
  • Give the function prototype
  • Define the main function
    • Call the function “squareRoot()” by passing different values.
  • Definition for the function “absoluteValue(double x)”
    • Check “x” is less than “0”.
    • Assign “-x” to x“.
    • Return the value of “x”.
  • Definition for the function “squareRoot(double x)”
    • Assign “epsilon” to “0.00001”
      • Declare the variable “guess” as “float”
      • Call the function “absoluteValue()”.
        • Compute the value of guess.
      • Return the value of guess.

Write a function which will swap its arguments if the first argument is greater than its second argument,but will not interchange them if the first argument is smaller than or equal to the second argument. Thefunction should return 1 if a swap was made, and 0 otherwise.(Hint: Make sure to use call by reference.)Write also a short test driver(i.e. a main() invoking your function). C++
Using Haskell.)   One common misconception is that prime numbers are those that are not divisible by 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9. To dispel this myth, write a function fakePrimes that returns all numbers that are not divisible by 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9, and are not prime. For example, taking the first number out of this function we get [121].
IN C++ The text file is the 5 lines below 1 1 1 1.2 -2.3 0.4 -2 -3 -4 +0 -2 8.85 2.345   Write a function to read one set of values from the file. Use reference parameters (NOT anarray!) to get the values out of the function and the function’s return value to indicate whether ornot the function was able to correctly read three values. Return the 'stop' code on end-of-filebefore reading the third value. The only data error you must deal with here is too few values onthe line, e.g., the line has a and b values only but no c value. You may assume that the last linein the file is the only one with an error (if any error exists), and your function should return acode to make the program stop processing after this error. This restriction allows you to usestream extraction to read the file, rather than reading lines and parsing them yourself. Thisfunction MAY NOT try to read all the lines in the file, just read one line per call to the function.
