) The least-privilege principle can be used to effectively defend against the race condition attacks discussed in this chapter. Can we use the same principle to defeat buffer-overflow attacks? Why or why not? Namely, before executing the vulnerable function, we disable the root privilege; after the vulnerable function returns, we enable the privilege back.

Given the following code: if (n == 2) { k -= 2; } else if (n == 3) { k -= 3; } can be rewritten as: if (< condition > ) { < assignment statement > ; } assume that evaluating < condition > does not change the values stored in n and k. which of the following could be used as < assignment statement > ? k -= n; k -= 1; k -= 2; k += n; k = n - k;

3.11.3 quiz: comparing and analyzing function typesquestion 4 of 102 pointswhat can you say about the y-values of the two functions f(x) = 3x2-3 andg(x)=2* - 3?

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.
