-\begin{frame}{Quick Recap}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item List indexing and slicing
- \item The \kwrd{range()} function
- \item \kwrd{for}
- \item Iterating lists and tuples using \kwrd{for} and \kwrd{range()}
- \end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}{Problem 3.1}
- Which of the earlier problems is simpler when we use \kwrd{for} instead of \kwrd{while}?
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}{Problem 3.2}
- Given an empty chessboard and one Bishop placed in any square, say (r, c), generate the list of all squares the Bishop could move to.
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}[fragile]
- \frametitle{Problem 3.3}
-
- Given two real numbers \typ{a, b}, and an integer \typ{N}, write a
- function named \typ{linspace( a, b, N)} that returns an ordered list
- of \typ{N} points starting with \typ{a} and ending in \typ{b} and
- equally spaced.\\
-
- For example, \typ{linspace(0, 5, 11)}, should return, \\
-\begin{lstlisting}
-[ 0.0 , 0.5, 1.0 , 1.5, 2.0 , 2.5,
- 3.0 , 3.5, 4.0 , 4.5, 5.0 ]
-\end{lstlisting}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}[fragile]
- \frametitle{Problem 3.4}
-
-Use the \typ{linspace} function and generate a list of N tuples of the form\\
-\typ{[($x_1$,f($x_1$)),($x_2$,f($x_2$)),\ldots,($x_N$,f($x_N$))]}\\for the following functions,\begin{itemize}
- \item \typ{f(x) = sin(x)}
- \item \typ{f(x) = sin(x) + sin(10*x)}.
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}[fragile]
- \frametitle{Problem 3.5}
-
- Using the tuples generated earlier, determine the intervals where the roots of the functions lie.
