Series Calculation with a while Loop Write a script file to determine how many terms are required for the sum of the series 5k2 – 2k; k = I, 2, 3…. to exceed 10,000. What is the sum for this many terms? Solution Because we do not know how many times we...
Series Calculation with a for Loop Write a script file to compute the sum of the first 15 terms in the series 5k2 – 2k, k = 1.2.3….. ,5. Solution Because we know how many times we must evaluate the expression 5k2 – 2k. we can use a for loop. The...
Plotting with a for Loop Write a script file to plot the function: Solution We choose a spacing dx = 35/300 to obtain 301 points, which is sufficient to obtain a smooth plot. The script file is the following: Note that we must use the index k to refer to x within the...
