C++ program structure

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(){

---

--- statements/instructions;

---

return(0);

}

• We will learn later what each of these lines mean. Right now, this is a mandatory structure


IIT BOMBAY


C++ Data types

• We have seen numerical and string data

7.45, 12.3E-12, “Ranade”, “\n”,

• Constant values are written like this by us

C++ stores these in an internal format

• Numerical values have an associated type

int, long, float, double

• Memory location names, called variables,

must be predefined with associated data type

int count; float a, b, sum; double largevalue;


IIT BOMBAY


C++ statements

• Each instruction of our program can ordinarily convey any one of the 3 actions

•Assignment, input, output

• Assignement

sum = a + b;

area = (x-1.0)*(1/(x-1.0);

m = m + x/2.5

•The last one is to be seen as “reassignment”


IIT BOMBAY


C++ statements ...

• “increment” is special form of reassignment

count = count + 1;

or count += 1;

or, more simply, ++count or count++

• Input

cin >> x >> maxvalue;

• Output

cout << “Value of y is “ << y << “\n”;


IIT BOMBAY


Conditional execution

• Program instructions are normally executed in

the given sequence

• C++ can examine conditions, and based on the

result, can execute conditions out of sequence

if (condition)

{ statement group 1};

else

{ statement group 2};


IIT BOMBAY


Conditional execution ...

• Based on the age of a passenger, the ticket

cost is different. Let us say, it is Rs 25.50 for

an adult, and Rs 12.75 for a child (< 12 Years)

cin >> age;

ticket = 12.75;

ticket = 25.50;

cout << “Rs. “ << ticket << endl;


IIT BOMBAY


Conditional execution ...

• Suppose we alter the sequence of assigning a value to ticket

cin >> age;

ticket = 25.50;

ticket = 12.75;


• The assignment to variable ticket will always be the last assigned value irrespective of age!


IIT BOMBAY


Conditional execution …

• Use of the if – else statements will permit us to correctly evaluate the ticket

cin >> age;

if (age > 12)

{ticket = 25.50};

else

{ticket = 12.75};


• What if elders are charged Rs 20?


IIT BOMBAY


If – else if ladder

cin >> age;

if (age > 60){

ticket = 20.00;}

else if (age > 12){

ticket = 25.50;}

else {

ticket = 12.75;}



IIT BOMBAY


Repetitive actions

int nfactorial, n, i

cin >> n

nafactorial = 1;

for (i =1; i <= n, i++){

nfactorial = nfactorial * i;

};

cout << “factorial ” << n << “ is ” << nfactorial;


IIT BOMBAY


Complete program for n!

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {

int nfactorial, n, i;

cout << “ Give value of n” << endl;

cin >> n;


IIT BOMBAY


Complete program for n! …

nafactorial = 1;

for (i =1; i <= n, i++){

nfactorial = nfactorial * i;

};

cout <<“factorial ”<<n<< “is ”<<nfactorial<< endl;

Return(0);

}

Hemachandra’s Problem (12th century AD)

Suppose I have to build a wall of length 8 feet. I have bricks 2 feet long and also 1 foot long. In how many ways I can lay the bricks so that I fill the 8 feet?

Possibilities:

2,2,2,2;

1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1;

2,2,2,1,1

....


IIT BOMBAY


Hemachandra’s Actual Problem

Suppose I am designing a poetic meter with 8 beats. The meter is made of short syllables and long syllables.

Short syllable (s) = 1 beat,

Long syllable (l) = 2 beats.

How many ways are there of filling 8 beats?

Example of a poetic meterya kun den du tu sha r ha r dha va la ya shubh r vas tra vru ta

l l l s s l s l s s s l l l s l l s s


IIT BOMBAY


Hemachandra’s Solution

“By the method of Pingala, it is enough to

observe that the last beat is long or short”

Pingala: mathematician/poet from 500 A.D.

Hemachandra is giving credit to someone who

lived hundreds of years before him!!

Copy if necessary and if permitted,

but always give credit


IIT BOMBAY


Algebraically..

Hn = number of patterns with n beats

H8 = H7 + H6

In general Hn = Hn-1 + Hn-2

Does this help us to compute H8?

We need to know H7, H6, for which we need H5, ...


IIT BOMBAY


Algorithm Idea

H1 = number of patterns with 1 beat = 1 {S}

H2 = Number with 2 beats = 2 {SS, L}

H3 = H2 + H1 = 2 + 1 = 3 {SSS, SL, LS}

H4 = H3 + H2 = 3 + 2 = 5

H5 = H4 + H3 = 5 + 3 = 8

H6 = H5 + H4 = 8 + 5 = 13

H7 = H6 + H5 = 13 + 8 = 21

H8 = H7 + H6 = 21 + 13 = 34 ...


IIT BOMBAY


Program to compute Hn

int n; cin >> n; // which number to compute

int hprev = 1, hcurrent = 2;

for(int i=3; i <= n; i++){

hnext = hprev + hcurrent;

// prepare for next iteration

hprev = hcurrent;

hcurrent = hnext; }

cout << hnext;


IIT BOMBAY


Code is tricky!

Need a comment:

/* At the begining of an iteration

hcurrent = Hi-1 write ith term if you like.

hprev = Hi-2

where i is the value of variable i */

Can you prove this?

Will mathematical induction help?

Proving this is enough

-- hnext = hprev + hcurrent –

hence correct answer will be generated.


IIT BOMBAY


Proof by induction

Base case: At the beginning of the first iteration is this true? Yes, i will have value 3, and hprev = 1 = H1, hcurrent = 2 = H2

Suppose it is true at some later iteration, when i has value v >= 3. By induction hypothesis, hprev and hcurrent have values Hv-1, Hv-2 respectively

The first statement hnext = hprev + hcurrent makes hnext = Hv-1 + Hv-2 = Hv. After this the statement hprev = hcurrent makes hprev = Hv-1. The next statement hcurrent = hnext makes hcurrent=Hv.

In the next iteration i will have value v+1. But hprev,hcurrent will have exactly the right values!

On Hemachandra Numbers

Mathematics from poetry!

Series is very interesting.

- Number of petals in many flowers.

- Ratio of consecutive terms tends to a limit.

What are these numbers more commonly known as?

Fibonacci numbers!!

Hemachandra lived before Fibonacci.

Newton Raphson method

Method to find the root of f(x), i.e. x s.t. f(x)=0.

Method works if:

f(x) and f '(x) can be easily calculated.

A good initial guess is available.

Example: To find square root of k.

use f(x) = x2 - k. f’ (x) = 2x.

f(x), f’ (x) can be calculated easily.

2,3 arithmetic operations

Initial guess x0 = 1 always works! can be proved.


IIT BOMBAY


How to get better xi+1 given xi

f(x)

xi

xi+1

Point A =(xi,0) known.

A

B

C

f’ (xi) = AB/AC = f(xi)/(xi - xi+1) xi+1

= (xi- f(xi)/f’ (xi))

Calculate f(xi).

Point B=(xi,f(x

i)) known

Approximate f by tangent

C= intercept on x axis

C=(xi+1

,0)


IIT BOMBAY


Square root of k

xi+1

= (xi- f(xi)/f’ (xi))

f(x) = x2 - k, f’ (x) = 2x

xi+1 = xi - (xi2 - k)/(2xi) = (xi + k/xi)/2

Starting with x0=1, we compute x1, then x2, then...

We can get as close to sqrt(k) as required.

Proof not part of the course.


IIT BOMBAY


Code

float k;

cin >> k;

float xi=1; // Initial guess. Known to work.

for(int i=0; i < 10; i++){

// 10 iterations

xi = (xi + k/xi)/2;

}

cout << xi;


IIT BOMBAY


Another way

float xi, k; cin >> k;

for( xi = 1 ;

// Initial guess. Known to work.

xi*xi – k > 0.001 || k - xi*xi > 0.001 ;

// until error in the square is at most 0.001

xi = (xi + k/xi)/2);

cout << xi;


IIT BOMBAY


Yet Another way

float k; cin >> k;

float xi=1;

while(xi*xi – k > 0.001 || k - xi*xi > 0.001){

xi = (xi + k/xi)/2 ;

}

cout << xi;

}


IIT BOMBAY


While statement

while (condition) { loop body}

check condition, then execute loop body if true.

Repeat.

If loop body is a single statement, then need not

use { }. Always putting braces is recommended;

if you insert a statement, you may forget to put

them, so do it at the beginning.

True for other statements also: for/repeat/if.


IIT BOMBAY


For vs. while

If there is a “control” variable with initial value,

update rule, and whose value distinctly defines

each loop iteration, use for.

If loop executes fixed number of times, use for.


IIT BOMBAY


Homework

Write a program to calculate the cube root

using Newton Raphson method.

Check how many iterations are needed to get

good answers. Should be very few.
