The nth harmonic number is defined non-recursively as: 1 +1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ... + 1/n. Come up with a recursive definition and use it to guide you to write a function definition for a double -valued function named harmonic that accepts an int parameters n and recursively calculates and returns the nth harmonic number. this is for myprogramminglab.com this is what i have double harmonic(int n) { int sum =0; if (n>0) { sum=sum+(1/(harmonic( n-1))); } return sum; }
Answer:
See the code below.
Explanation:
The nth armonic number is obtained from the following induction process:
[tex]a_1 = 1[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 1+\frac{1}{2}=a_1 +1[/tex]
[tex]a_3 = 1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}=a_2 +1[/tex]
And for the the n term we have this:
[tex]a_{n-1}=1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+....+\frac{1}{n-1}[/tex]
[tex] a_n = 1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+......+\frac{1}{n}=a_{n-1}+\frac{1}{n}[/tex]
In order to create a code for the ne term we can use the following code using python:
# Code to find the nth armonic
# Function to find n-th Harmonic Number
def armonicseries(n) :
# a1 = 1
harmonic = 1
# We need to satisfy the following formulas:
# an = a1 + a2 + a3 ... +..... +an-1 + an-1 + 1/n
for i in range(2, n + 1) :
harmonic += 1 / i
return harmonic
##############################
And then with the following instructions we find the solution for any number n.
n = 3 # thats the number of n that we want to find
print(round(armonicseries(n),5))
Recursive functions are functions that execute itself from within.
The harmonic sum function in Python, where comments are used to explain each line is as follows:
#This defines the function
def harmonic_sum(n):
#This returns 1, if n is less than 2
if n < 2:
return 1
#If otherwise,
else:
#This calculates the harmonic sum, recursively
return 1 / n + (harmonic_sum(n - 1))

Assume the availability of a function called printStars. The function receives an int argument. If the argument is positive, the function prints (to standard output) the given number of asterisks. Thus, if printStars(8) is called, ******** (8 asterisks) will be printed. Assume further that the variable starCount has been declared and initialized to a some integer, possibly negative or zero. Write some code that does nothing if starCount is not positive but that otherwise prints starCount asterisks to standard output by: first printing a single asterisk (and no other characters) then calls printStars to print the remaining asterisks.
To print asterisks based on the value of 'starCount', you must first check if it is positive. If so, print one asterisk and then call 'printStars(starCount - 1)' to print the rest.
Explanation:To address the scenario wherein the function printStars needs to be called only if starCount is a positive number, we must first check the value of starCount. If starCount is greater than zero, we print a single asterisk and then call printStars with starCount - 1 to print the remaining asterisks. Here's how this could be coded:
if (starCount > 0) {This code snippet checks if starCount is positive and acts accordingly by printing an initial asterisk, followed by the remaining asterisks using the printStars function.

SATA cables or connectors, also known as serial ATA, are usually meant for installing optical drives and hard drives. Unlike its counterpart (PATA), it is much faster in speed and can hot swap devices, that is, devices can be installed with shutting down the system.
PCIe are extension adapter cables in PC, used for the purpose of connecting peripheral devices like video cards, networt card etc.
A SATA to PCIe adapter cable can be used to power the video card to be installed. It is cheaper and faster than other options.
A ___________ is an algorithm for which it is computationally infeasible to find either (a) a data object that maps to a pre-specified hash result or (b) two data objects that map to the same hash result. a. cryptographic hash function b. strong collision resistance c. one-way hash function d. compression function
Answer:
a. cryptographic hash function
Explanation:
A cryptographic hash function is a hash function that is suitable for use in cryptography. It is a mathematical algorithm that maps data of arbitrary size to a bit string of a fixed size and is a one-way function, that is, a function which is practically infeasible to invert.
The answer is a. cryptographic hash function, which is designed to produce a unique, fixed-size hash for any given data input and possesses properties crucial for ensuring data security and integrity.
Explanation:The correct answer to your question is a. cryptographic hash function. A cryptographic hash function is designed to take an input (or 'message') and produce a fixed-size string of bytes that is typically a digest that is unique to the specific input. This type of hash function possesses several important properties which are crucial for cryptography:
The output (hash value) for a particular input is always the same, ensuring consistency (Property 1).Given a hash value, it is computationally infeasible to determine the original input (Property 2).It is highly unlikely to find two different inputs that produce the same hash value, known as collision resistance (Property 3).A minor change in the input leads to a significant change in the resulting hash, a characteristic known as the avalanche effect (Property 4).These attributes make a cryptographic hash function a fundamental tool in the field of cybersecurity, data integrity, and digital forensics.

Given the following declaration of a field in a class: public static final String GREETING = "Hi";
Which of these statements is not true?
a) Each object of this class can access GREETING
b) The value of greeting can’t be changed in any methods
c) Each object of this class has its own copy of GREETING
d) GREETING.length() = 2
e) GREETING.toUpperCase() = "HI"
Answer:
Each object of this class has its own copy of GREETING
Explanation:
option c: Each object of this class has it’s own copy of GREETING
This is the only false statement. When a variable is preceded by the Static key word only one copy of that variable is created, no matter the amount of object created from the instance of that class.
option a: Each object of this class can access GREETING, this is true.
option b: The value of GREETING can’t be changed in any methods, this is true because GREETING is preceded by the keyword final.
option d: GREETING.length() = 2, this is true because the method length() is use to get the length of the string "Hi" which is 2.
option e: GREETING.toUpperCase() = "HI", this is also true because the method toUpperCase() convert all the character of "Hi" to uppercase.
Note: All these are peculiar to java programming language.
Final answer:
Explanation of the incorrect statements regarding the static field declaration in a Java class.
Explanation:
b) The value of greeting can’t be changed in any method: This statement is not true because even though the field is declared as 'final', it can still be accessed and modified using reflection.
c) Each object of this class has its copy of GREETING: This statement is not true. Static fields in Java are shared among all instances of a class, so all objects of the class will have the same value for a static field.
d) GREETING.length() = 2: This is true since the length of the string 'Hi' is 2.

Explanation:
The description of the given c++ program can be given as:
In the given c++ program two class is defined that is "class bClass and class dClass". In bClass, this class declares a method, parameterized constructor, and private integer variable x and y. In dClass, this class first, inherit the base class that is bClass and this class also declares a method, parameterized constructor, and private integer variable z. In the main method, we create the class object and passed value in the constructor parameter that is "2, 3" and "3, 5, 8" and call the function that is "print". In this method, we use the scope resolution operator that access function and constructor to main method scope. By using a scope resolution operator we define method and constructor.FTP requires confirmation that a file was successfully transmitted to a client, but it has no built-in mechanism to track this information for itself. What protocol does FTP rely on at the Transport layer of the TCP/IP model to ensure delivery is complete?
Group of answer choices
UDP
HTTP
SSH
TCP
Answer:
TCP
Explanation:
Answer:
TCP
Explanation:
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) can be found in the Application layer of the TCP/IP model and the Application layer of the OSI model not on the Transport layer of the TCP/IP model as stated in the question.
In the Transport layer, we have end-to-end message transmission or application connection, which can be grouped as connection-oriented or connectionless. Connection-oriented is implemented in TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) while connectionless is implemented in UDP (User Datagram Protocol), which are the two major protocols found in the Transport Layer of the TCP/IP model. The choice of TCP as the correction option out of the four options given is based on the fact that FTP is a protocol found in the Application layer of TCP/IP
FTP is a network protocol used to receive and send files between machines on a TCP/IP network using ports 20 and 21. This protocol uses a client-server architecture, an FTP client is installed on the client and used to establish the connection to an FTP server running on a remote machine. FTP supports user authentication, so when a connection has been established and the user authenticated, data can be transferred between them. All data are sent in clear text, be it usernames or passwords. For secure transmission that protects the username and password, and encrypts the content, FTP can be secured with SSL.TLS or replaced with SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). A connection to port 21 from the FTP client forms the control stream on which commands are passed to the FTP server and responses are collected. The parameters for the data streams depend on the specifically requested transport mode. Data connection usually uses port 20.
On the Loan worksheet, in cell C9, enter a PMT function to calculate the monthly payment for the Altamonte Springs 2022 facilities loan. Ensure that the function returns a positive value and set the references to cells B5 and B6 as absolute references.
Answer:
Microsoft Excel, pmt function.
Explanation:
Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet application used to manipulate and analyse data. It has several functions and tools to work with. An excel workbook can contain multiple worksheets. It has columns (or field) labelled alphabetically and also numbered rows ( or record).
The PMT function is a financial function used to calculate the periodic payment of loans. It's syntax is;
=PMT(interest rate increase, loan period, loan amount).
For example, if the interest rate increase is annual, and the value is a cell B7, the input would be B7/12. If the value of the loan period and amount are referenced in cells B6 and B5 respectively, the function would be ;
=PMT(B7/12, B6, B5).
But this will give a negative result. For positive result;
=PMT(B7/12, B6, -B5)
Now to make excel pick values from a specified group of cells, they are made absolute by adding the '$' to the columns and rows.
=PMT($B$7/12, $B$6, -$B$5).
The result would positive values spanning to twelve months with interest rate.
To calculate a loan's monthly payment in Excel using the PMT function, enter '=PMT($B$5/12, B6*12, -B4)' in cell C9. This will yield a positive value for the monthly payment with the annual interest rate and loan term set as absolute references.
To calculate the monthly payment for the Altamonte Springs 2022 facilities loan, you need to use the PMT function in Excel. Follow these steps:
Click on cell C9 to make it active.Enter the formula: =PMT($B$5/12, B6*12, -B4), where $B$5 refers to the annual interest rate, B6 to the term in years, and B4 to the loan amount. Using absolute references for $B$5 and $B$6 ensures these references do not change if the formula is copied elsewhere.Press Enter to see the calculated monthly payment displayed as a positive value.Remember, the PMT function helps manage financial calculations efficiently in Excel, ensuring accurate loan payments computations.

Instead of using fonts located on your web server in your web pages, many companies that create and license fonts enable you to link to fonts on their web servers. To do so, you add an additional link element to your HTML file using a web address provided by the host as the value for the ____ attribute.
Answer:
The correct answer is href attribute.
Explanation:
It is a type of HTML attribute used to speifies the URL (Uniform Resourse Locator) of the page the link goes to or it links to the differnt part of the same page. <a> (anchor) tag is used to create a link and defines as a hyperlink.
The href can be based on the following elements such as :
<area><link><a><base>For example :
[tex]<a href\text{=}"links address/">Visit google</a>[/tex]
so href is the attribute used by the many companies that created and license fonts enable you to link to fonts into web servers.

A user reports that an application crashed. The technician tries a few other applications on the PC and finds that none of them start normally or that they crash soon after being launched. What is a possible cause of the problem?
The possible cause of the problem on application keep on crashing in user's PC lies on the computer's operating system.
The computer's operating system performs automatic updates (sometimes being set into manual updates). Either way, updates can cause applications to crash if it is being installed wrongly. Sometimes due to slow internet connection, updates get paused and will cause problems in your computer. You can apply the following steps to fix applications that keep on crashing:
Make sure the operating system updates are installed correctly. You can take a look at your system configuration, (in Windows 10, you can see it at system settings > Windows Update Settings), there are updates list that you can see and you can choose either you will stop, reinstall and continue the updates. You need to execute a clean boot. You will need a third party tool to try this method. You need to back up your data and perform system restore to the last OS version installed in your computer that functions well. You can select this method if you want to undo the system update and would just like to use your computer in it's last best state.A virus infection on the computer could be the source of the problem.
Some computer viruses are designed to damage your computer by destroying files, corrupting applications, or reformatting the hard drive. Others just clone malware or flood a system with traffic, rendering all internet activity impossible.
There are various ways for a computer to become infected with a virus, the majority of which involve downloading malicious files, either purposefully or unwittingly. Pirated music or movies, photographs, free games, and toolbars, as well as malware emails with files, are all prominent offenders.

A student is helping a friend with a home computer that can no longer access the Internet. Upon investigation, the student discovers that the computer has been assigned the IP address 169.254.100.88. What could cause a computer to get such an IP address? a. static IP addressing with incomplete information b. interference from surrounding devices c. reduced computer power supply output d. unreachable DHCP server
Answer:
Option (D) is the right answer.
Explanation:
DHCP term used as a short form of dynamic host configuration protocol, which is used to assigns the IP address automatically according to the network.
According to the scenario, the system is getting the wrong IP address that resulting in internet disconnection which is a failure of the DHCP server because it is responsible for assigning the right IP address to the system.
Hence option (D) is the most appropriate answer.
While other options are wrong because of the following reasons:
Static IP is the type of IP address which is fix and doesn't change in the system after rebooting, hence it has no connection in the change of IP address. If the DHCP server is working well there is no chance of interference from the surrounding device. Network setting has no connection with computer power supply as SMPS is used to give power and boot system only.Final answer:
The computer has been assigned an APIPA address, indicating it couldn't reach the DHCP server. The correct cause is an unreachable DHCP server, causing the computer to self-assign this IP address.
Explanation:
When a computer is assigned an IP address such as 169.254.100.88, this is known as an Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address. It generally means that the computer has failed to obtain an IP address from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. Common causes of this issue could include network configuration errors, DHCP server failure, or the absence of a DHCP server on the network. APIPA addresses are self-assigned by the computer when it is configured to obtain an IP address automatically and cannot reach the DHCP server.
In this case, the correct answer to what could cause a computer to get such an IP address is d. unreachable DHCP server. This scenario typically does not involve interference from surrounding devices, static IP addressing, or a reduced computer power supply output.
The Springfork Amateur Golf Club has a tournament every weekend. The club president
has asked you to write two programs:
1. A program that will read each player’s name and golf score as keyboard input, and then
save these as records in a file named golf.txt. (Each record will have a field for the
player’s name and a field for the player’s score.)
2. A program that reads the records from the golf.txt file and displays them.
Answer:
The Python code is given below for each question.
Explanation:
1:
if __name__ == '__main__':
f = open('golf.txt', 'w')
n = int(input("Enter number of players:"))
for i in range(n):
name = input("Enter name of player number " + str(i + 1) + ":")
score = int(input("Enter score of player number " + str(i + 1) + ":"))
f.write(name + "\n" + str(score) + "\n")
f.close()
2:
try:
with open('golf.txt') as r:
lines = r.readlines()
for i in range(0, len(lines), 2):
print("Name:", lines[i].strip())
print("Score:", lines[i+1].strip())
print()
except FileNotFoundError:
print("golf.txt is not found!")
Final answer:
The question involves writing two programs for the Springfork Amateur Golf Club: one to save each player's name and golf score to a file, and another to read and display these records from the file, illustrating the use of file input and output in programming.
Explanation:
Creating and Reading Golf Tournament RecordsThe request involves two primary tasks related to file input and output in programming: creating a file to store records and reading from that file to display the records. This practice is essential in developing applications that need to persist data across sessions. By understanding how to implement both tasks, students will gain valuable insight into how software applications manage data.
Program to Save Player RecordsThis program should prompt the user for player names and scores, creating a record for each and writing these records to a golf.txt file. It's important to handle file operations carefully to avoid data loss or corruption. Each record would ideally have separate fields for the player's name and score, ensuring structured data storage.
Program to Display Records from FileThe second program will read the records stored in the golf.txt file and display them. This task involves opening the file in read mode, iterating over each line (assumed to represent a record), and parsing the line into its component fields to be displayed. Such a program demonstrates reading from and interpreting external data sources.
Your friend Luis recently was the victim of identity theft and has asked your advice for how to protect himself in the future. You tell Luis that he should install software that protects network resources from outside intrusions, called a(n) ______.
a. hot spot
b. tracking cookie
c. firewall
d. security scanner
Answer:
Firewall
Explanation:
Firewalls are mainly intended to protect an individual computer system or network from being accessed by an intruder, especially via the Internet. They thus work to prevent sabotage of the system and the theft or unauthorized viewing of private or sensitive data, such as through the use of spyware.
Final answer:
Luis should install a "firewall" to protect against identity theft by serving as a barrier that controls network traffic and prevents unauthorized access to his computer's resources.
Explanation:
To protect yourself from identity theft and ensure the security of your network resources, it's important to install a program known as a firewall. This software acts as a barrier between your computer and the internet, controlling incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an applied rule set. It helps to prevent unauthorized access to your system, which can be crucial for protecting sensitive personal information from cybercriminals.
A firewall is different from programs that monitor Web usage, which may be used in work settings to ensure employees are focused on work-related tasks. While both are concerned with the use of the internet, a firewall is specifically designed to protect against intrusions and hacking attempts.
