1.12 section 1.10 cites as a pitfall the utilization of a subset of the performance equation as a performance metric. to illustrate this, consider the following two processors. p1 has a clock rate of 4 ghz, average cpi of 0.9, and requires the execution of 5.0e9 instructions. p2 has a clock rate of 3 ghz, an average cpi of 0.75, and requires the execution of 1.0e9 instructions. [5] < §§1.6, 1.10> one usual fallacy is to consider the computer with the largest clock rate as having the largest performance. check if this is true for p1 and p2. [10] < §§1.6, 1.10> another fallacy is to consider that the processor executing the largest number of instructions will need a larger cpu time. considering that processor p1 is executing a sequence of 1.0e9 instructions and that the cpi of processors p1 and p2 do not change, determine the number of instructions that p2 can execute in the same time that p1 needs to execute 1.0e9 instructions.

Assume that to_the_power_of is a function that expects two int parameters and returns the value of the first parameter raised to the power of the second parameter. write a statement that calls to_the_power_of to compute the value of cube_side raised to the power of 3 and that associates this value with cube_volume.

Write a grading program for a class with the following grading policies: a. there are two quizzes, each graded on the basis of 10 points. b. there is one midterm exam and one final exam, each graded on the basis of 100 points. c. the final exam counts for 50% of the grade, the midterm counts for 25%, and the two quizzes together count for a total of 25%. (do not forget to normalize the quiz scores. they should be converted to a percentage before they are averaged in.) any grade of 90 or more is an a, any grade of 80 or more (but less than 90) is a b, any grade of 70 or more (but less than 80) is a c, any grade of 60 or more (but less than 70) is a d, and any grade below 60 is an f. the program will read in the student’s scores and output the student’s record, which consists of two quiz and two exam scores as well as the student’s average numeric score for the entire course and final letter grade. define and use a structure for the student reco

The value of sin(x) (in radians) can be approximated by the alternating infinite series create a function (prob3_2) that takes inputs of a scalar angle measure (in radians) and the number of approximation terms, n, and estimates sin(x). do not use the sin function in your solution. you may use the factorial function. though this can be done without a loop (more efficiently), your program must use (at least) one. you may find the mod() function useful in solving the problem.
