Explain the difference between the prefix and postfix forms of the increment operator.

1. package newton’s method for approximating square roots (case study 3.6) in a function named newton. this function expects the input number as an argument and returns the estimate of its square root. the script should also include a main function that allows the user to compute square roots of inputs until she presses the enter/return key. 2. convert newton’s method for approximating square roots in project 1 to a recursive function named newton. (hint: the estimate of the square root should be passed as a second argument to the function.) 3. elena complains that the recursive newton function in project 2 includes an extra argument for the estimate. the function’s users should not have to provide this value, which is always the same, when they call this function. modify the definition of the function so that it uses a keyword parameter with the appropriate default value for this argument, and call the function without a second argument to demonstrate that it solves this problem. 4. restructure newton’s method (case study 3.6) by decomposing it into three cooperating functions. the newton function can use either the recursive strategy of project 1 or the iterative strategy of case study 3.6. the task of testing for the limit is assigned to a function named limitreached, whereas the task of computing a new approximation is assigned to a function named improveestimate. each function expects the relevant arguments and returns an appropriate value. 5. a list is sorted in ascending order if it is empty or each item except the last one is less than or equal to its successor. define a predicate issorted that expects a list as an argument and returns true if the list is sorted, or returns false otherwise. (hint: for a list of length 2 or greater, loop through the list and compare pairs of items, from left to right, and return false if the first item in a pair is greater.)

4. a1. vince owns a television repair shop that is insured undera commercial package policy. the policy includes thebuilding and personal property coverage form and thecauses-of-loss broad form. the declarations page indicatesthat coverage applies to both the building and the namedinsured's business property. explain whether or not thefollowing losses would be covered under his policy.a. a fire occurs on the premises, and the building isbadly damaged.b. a burglar steals some money and securities from anunlocked safe.c. a business computer is damaged by vandals whobreak into the shop after business hours.d. a tornado touches down near the store. several tel-evision sets of customers in the shop for repair aredamaged in the storm.til
