(Repetition structure, while loop)



You are to write a program in C++ that will perform several conversions. The program should display a menu that will have the following options:


1. Convert Kilobytes to Megabytes.



2. Convert Megabytes to Gigabytes.



3. Convert Gigabyte to Terabytes.



4. Quit.



The program should receive the amount to convert to a specific unit and return the result of that conversion. The program should run several times until the user decides to quit it. Make sure that the program is well indented, free of bugs and logical errors.

A customer in a store is purchasing five items. Design a pseudo code argorithm that asks for the price of each item, and then displays the subtotal of the sale, the amount of sales tax, and the total. Assume sales tax is 6%

Some algorithms used in Artificial Intelligence can be differentiated as white-box and black-box machine learning algorithms. The former are those algorithms that provide results that are understandable for experts in the domain whereas the latter can hardly be understood even by domain experts.

Requirement: Read the relevant literature and suggest how the present black-box machine learning algorithms can be made transparent, interpretable and explainable.

Consider now the function f(x) = x^4-2x^3− 12x^2 + 16x − 4 which has four distinct roots.



Question 10


Choose the appropriate option:



(1) The secant method and Muller’s method are similar in the sense that they both start with two


points.



(2) The regula falsi and the secant methods are the same and convergence for the regula falsi is


guaranteed because the next approximation is bracketed.



(3) Muller’s method determines the next approximation by considering the intersection of a parabola


and the x-axis through three given points.



(4) Statements (2) and (3) are correct.



(5) none of the above statements

(2) p = 0.34170924 when applying the bisection method with the starting points p0 = 0 and p1 = 1.



(3) p = 0.34170924 when applying Newton’s method with starting point p0 = 0.



(4) p = 0.88338140 when applying Muller’s method with starting points p2 = 0, p0 = 1 and p1 = 5.
