Laboratory Assignments

Lab #2 for Jan 14

Lab #3 for Jan 21

Lab #4 for Jan 28
You will need this file for the lab Fig03_10.cpp

Lab #5 for Feb 4

Lab #6 for Feb 11

Lab#7 for Feb 18

Lab#8 for Feb 25

Lab#9 for March 3
Your may find the reverse function useful reverse.cpp

Lab#10 for March 10
In the lab today we will work with client code using your Rational implementation done in homework. Specifics will be discussed at the beginning of the lab.
Your client should compute two series based on input of integer N.
a) Harmonic Number h(N)= 1+ 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ... + 1/N
b) Approximation of pi: pi(N) = 4(1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 - .. + 1/N)
Your client should print both the fraction and the float values.
