Question
If Python 3 has obtained x=2.75 by rounding down to the nearest floating point value, what is the supremum (or maximum) size of the possible rounding error?
Note: the question is asking for the size of the error, not the value before rounding. Use the symbol " ^ " to express exponentiation.

- Convert Newton's method for approximating square roots in Project 1 to a recursive function named newton . (Hint: The estimate of the square root should be passed as a second argument to the function.) An example of the program input and output is shown below: Enter a positive number or enter/return to quit: 2 The program's estimate is 1.4142135623746899 Python's estimate is 1.4142135623730951 Enter a positive number or enter/return to quitarrow_forwardThis is Python Python's pow function returns the result of raising a number to a given power. Define a function expo that performs this task, and state its computational complexity using big-O notation. The first argument of this function is the number, and the second argument is the exponent (nonnegative numbers only). You may use either a loop or a recursive function in your implementation. Caution: do not use Python's ** operator or pow function in this exercise! ***Application specifically requests a GUI interface.***arrow_forward
