Problem Solving 2024 Fall

Assignment 1

October 9, 2024

1 Introduction

In this assignment, you will implement an interactive console program, QuadCalc; it takes a command from the user as text input through the console, executes the command, and prints the result to the console until an exit command is entered. QuadCalc manages a list of weighted quadratic functions. Let N be the number of the quadratic functions (1≤ N ≤ 300). The i-th (1≤ i ≤ N) quadratic function, Qi(x) is represented as follows:


where any of the coefficients (ai , bi , and ci) can be zero.

The prime function, P(x), is a weighted sum of Qi(x) and defined as follows:


where wi (∈ R) is the weight given to Qi(x). There is no case where the sum of the weights becomes zero.

The user can 1) add and remove quadratic functions to the prime (add and remove), 2) adjust their weights (setw), 3) evaluate the prime function at a certain point x (evaluate), and 4) find the root of the prime function (findroot).


2 The QuadCalc Commands

A command is a single-line string that ends with “\r\n” and consists of command type and arguments as follows:

<command> := <command type> <arg1:type1> <arg2:type2> · · · <argn:typen>

command type represents the type of the command and is one of: add, remove, setw, evaluate, check, and exit. The output of each command (if any) must be printed out immediately after each command is entered, not being queued until the exit is entered.

argi and typei are the name and type of the i-th argument in the command, respectively. The type of an argument is one of:

· size: a positive integer ranging from 1 to 300 (inclusive),

· number : a single-precision (4 bytes) floating-point number.

IMPORTANT: It is guaranteed that an exact number of the arguments of the correct types are always given (no insufficient or superfluous arguments, no wrong type).

2.1 The add Command

Usage: add <a:number> <b:number> <c:number>

The add command adds a quadratic function to the prime function with coefficients a, b, and c, initializing its weight to 1 (wi = 1). In the beginning, there is no function added to the prime function, i.e., P(x)=0, and it is guaranteed that the add command is always given as the first command of the input. Also, note that any of the coefficients can be zero, and the add command does not make any output.

Example: An add command to add a quadratic function Q1(x)=x 2 + 2x+ 3 is “add 1 2 3”.

2.2 The remove Command

Usage: remove <index:size>

The remove command removes the quadratic function at the given index. After removal, the remaining functions are shifted accordingly (if necessary). If there’s only one function, removing it will reset P(x)=0. Print out “0” if the removal operation succeeds. If an invalid size is provided, e.g., index out-of-range, print out “-1”.

Example: “remove 1” will remove the first quadratic function.


2.3 The setw Command

Usage: setw <index:size> <weight:number>

The setw command adjusts the weight wi of the quadratic function at the specified index. Weights are real numbers and can be positive, negative, or zero. Print out “0” if the operation succeeds. If an invalid size is provided, e.g., index out-of-range, print out “-1”.

Example:“setw 2 0.5” will set the weight of the second quadratic function to 0.5.

2.4 The evaluate Command

Usage: evaluate <x:number>

The evaluate command calculates the value of the prime function P(x) at the given x and prints the result. Print three decimal places of the result by using the %.3f format specifier.

Example: “evaluate 2” prints out P(2) with three decimal places.

2.5 The findroot Command

Usage: findroot

The findroot command prints out the root of the equation P(x)=0 if it exists. This command behaves as follows:

· If P(x) is a constant function, print out “CONST”.

· If P(x) is a linear function (a polynomial of degree 1), print out the root x such that P(x)=0.

· If P(x) is a quadratic function (a polynomial of degree 2) with two real roots, print out each of them in increasing order, separating them with one space ‘ ’.

· If P(x) is a quadratic function with one root, print it out only once.

· If P(x) is a quadratic function with no root, print out “NOROOT”.

Use the %.3f format specifier to print out the root.

2.6 The exit Command

Usage: exit

The exit command terminates QuadCalc.


2.7 Notes on Floating-Point Precision

Due to the limitations of floating-point representation, an error margin of less than or equal to 0.01 will be considered acceptable. Additionally, when comparing two floating-point numbers (e.g., checking if a coefficient is zero), use the same error bound. For example, a number is considered zero if its absolute value is less than or equal to 0.01. You may make a helper function or macro, e.g., is zero(x), and use it consistently throughout the code.
