Compile the program using gcc -o timing1 timing1.c -lm. Run the program 10 times with a command line argument of 5000000. Report the timings observed in the output. Repeat the process with arguments 10000000 and 20000000. Discuss the results observed, in particular regarding the resolution of the timing procedure used and the reproducibility of the results between runs. From the observed results, estimate the time needed to compute a square root.

Lowest Score Drop Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following functions: void getScore() should ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five scores to be entered. void calcAverage() should calculate and display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores. int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop. Input Validation: Do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100.
Tracking laps Learning Objectives In this lab, you will practice writing functions, passing arguments and returning results from the function printing the result of a function call writing your code as a module Instructions Main Idea An Olympic-size swimming pool is used in the Olympic Games, where the racecourse is 50 meters (164.0 ft) in length. "In swimming, a lap is the same as a length. By definition, a lap means a complete trip around a race track, in swimming, the pool is the race track. Therefore if you swim from one end to the other, you’ve completed the track and thus you’ve completed one lap or one length." (Source: What Is A Lap In Swimming? Lap Vs Length) Write the function meters_to_laps() that takes a number of meters as an argument and returns the real number of laps. Complete the program to output the number of laps with two digits after the period. Examples Input: 150 Output : 3.00 Input: 80 Output: 1.60 Your program must define and call the following…
User Defined Function: Void Function Create a JAVA program that will add, subtract, multiply and divide two numbers. Use user defined function for each operator Any number divided by zero will result to undefined Use int or double data type only for all variables declaredEXPECTED OUTPUT:
Code Example: def get_volume (width, height, length=2): volume width * * height length return volume def main (): 1 3 W = 4 h = 5 V = print (v) = get_volume (1, w, h) if name main () "1 main : 1.) Refer to the Code Example: What value is passed to the height argument by the call to the get_volume() function?
In C/C++, True or False: A function that changes the value of a variable passed by reference also changes the value of the original variable. A variable's type helps define the amount of memory it takes to hold a value of that type.

Usernames An online company needs your help to implement a program that verifies the username chosen by a new user. Their rules is described below: Username MUST contain at least 6 characters; Username cannot start with a number; Username can only contain letters or numbers. If valid, the username may be resgistered if it doesn't already exist in the system. You should not use built-in functions to determine the character type such as isnumeric() or islower(). Use the strings given alphabet and numeric to determine if each character is valid. Use the list registered to help you determine if the username is already registered. Don't forget to execute the cell below to use these strings # run this cell to create these variablesalphabet = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'numeric = "0123456789"registered = ["john87", "topmage", "light4ever", "username2"] Write a function nameValidation which receives a String argument name.
