Rainfall is typically measured using a rain gauge. It is expressed as the depth of water that collects on a flat
surface, and is routinely measured hourly in millimetre.
Write function to return the heaviest rainfall within that week.

- (Statics) A beam’s second moment of inertia, also known as its area moment of inertia, is used to determine its resistance to bending and deflection. For a rectangular beam (see Figure 6.6), the second moment of inertia is given by this formula: Ibh3/12 I is the second moment of inertia (m4). b is the base (m). h is the height (m). a. Using this formula, write a function called beamMoment() that accepts two double- precision numbers as parameters (one for the base and one for the height), calculates the corresponding second moment of inertia, and displays the result. b. Include the function written in Exercise 4a in a working program. Make sure your function is called from main(). Test the function by passing various data to it.arrow_forward(Numerical) Using the srand() and rand() C++ library functions, fill an array of 1000 floating-point numbers with random numbers that have been scaled to the range 1 to 100. Then determine and display the number of random numbers having values between 1 and 50 and the number having values greater than 50. What do you expect the output counts to be?arrow_forwardIn programming language C Write a program to take input for an integer. If the given integer is prime, then display the product of its digits, otherwise check whether it is even or odd. Use minimum three functions including main function.arrow_forward
- Computer Science This is an introductory exercise to the manipulation of random variables with Python as a language for scientific computing and numerical computation. You have: f(x) = Ae-0.1x)° 4 x*, 0arrow_forward*:To round (B) towards minus infinity the function used is roundn(A) fix(A) floor(A) ceil(A) round(A)arrow_forwardThis procedure is called as interpolation because it entails guessing a function's value at a location outside the data's range.arrow_forwardThe n'h Fibonacci Number can be calculated using the following formula: 1+ V5 :): V5 1 1 – V5. -)" –(- -)") Create a function with argument n where n is a nonnegative integer and returns the n'h Fibonacci Number. Note that the result won't be exact due to computer limitations of storing all decimal values. Use the round() function (e.g. round(12.4) results in 12 and round(12.5) results in 13) Note 1 Import math package inside the function and use math.sqrt() function. Note 2 There is no need to ask for input or print the output. Just submit the function with the following format: Соpy def fib(int1): # Your code here where int1) is a nonnegative integer. The function returns (1, 2, 5 when the arguments are (1, 3 and 5, respectively.arrow_forwardThe following formula can be used to determine the surface area of a cylinder: A-2*pi'r*h+2"pir ris the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Write a Python function named cylinder that accepts the radius and height as arguments. The function should return the area of the cylinder.

For example: Input: Length = 3 Output: ********* Input: Length = 4 Output: * ** *** **** *** ** *arrow_forwardA prime number is a number that is only evenly divisible by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can only be evenly divided by 1 and 5. The number 6, how‐ ever, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6. (Python program)Write a Boolean function named is_prime which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false otherwise. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to enter a number then displays a message indicating whether the number is primearrow_forwardComputer Science Write a python function that will draw an equilateral triangle. Call this this function n times from a main function to draw n nested triangles. (input n and side of largest triangle) Proper spacing, comments, pre and post conditions are required.
