This assignment is to be done in PLT Scheme/Racket. You should get at least some of these functions written in class on Sept. 13, and do the rest on your own time. You are encouraged to do this in teams of two, both students working together on each function; if you do this, turn in one homework with both names on it.
For all functions, follow the design recipe: each function must have a contract, a good collection of test cases, and a function definition.
This looks like a lot of programs to write, but most of them will each only be two or three lines long.
Write a function rect-perimeter which takes in the
width and height of a rectangle and returns its perimeter.
Write a function circle-perimeter which takes in the
radius of a circle and returns its perimeter (aka circumference).
Write a function Celsius->Kelvin which takes in a number
of degrees Celsius and returns the corresponding temperature in Kelvin.
(Kelvin degrees are the same size as Celsius degrees, but 0 Kelvin is
approximately -273.15 Celsius.)
Write a function Fahrenheit->Celsius which takes in a
number of degrees Fahrenheit and returns the corresponding temperature
in Celsius. (The formula is C = (F-32) * 5/9.)
Write a function Fahrenheit->Kelvin which does what it
sounds like.
Hint: you should be able to write this function with no numbers or arithmetic operators in the function body, by re-using previously-written functions.
Write a function convert-3-digits which takes in three
numbers representing the hundreds, tens, and ones digits (respectively) of a
three-digit number, and returns that three-digit number.
For example, (convert-3-digits 5 0 4) should return the number 504.
Write a function convert-3-reversed which takes in
three numbers representing the ones, tens, and hundreds digits
(respectively) of a three-digit number, and returns that three-digit
number.
Hint: you should be able to write this function with no numbers or arithmetic operators in the function body.
The nation of Progressiva has a simple tax code. The tax you pay is your salary times the tax rate, and the tax rate is 0.5% per thousand dollars of salary. For example, if you make $40,000, your tax rate is 0.5% times 40, which is 20%, so you pay 20% of $40,000, which is $8,000.
Write a function to compute the net pay (i.e. pay after taxes) of a person with a given salary.
Hint: I recommend writing two helper functions as well as net-pay itself.
Write a function teenage? that takes in a person's
age in years and returns a Boolean telling whether the person is a
teenager.
Write a function any-two-equal? that takes in three
numbers and tells whether any two of them are equal. (How many test
cases do you need for this?)
Write a function rough-age that takes in a person's
age in years and returns one of the strings "child",
"teenager", or "adult" as
appropriate.
Write a function smallest-of-3 that takes in three
numbers and returns the smallest of them. (How many test cases do you
need for this?)
Write a function who-won that takes in three
numbers: how many votes Anne got, how many votes Bob got, and how many
votes Charlie got. It returns one of the four strings
"Anne", "Bob", "Charlie", or
"tie", depending on which person got the most votes. (The
result should be "tie" if two or more people tie for
winner.) How many test cases do you need for this?
Write a function above-diagonal? that takes in a
posn and tells whether it's above the y=x diagonal line.
(Note: in computer graphics, positive x is to the right and positive y
is down; the point (0,0) is at the top-left corner, not the
bottom-left!)
Write a function distance that takes in two
posns and returns the straight-line distance between them
(by the Pythagorean theorem).
Write a function swap-x-y that takes in a
posn and returns a posn whose x coordinate is
the y coordinate of the parameter, and vice versa.
Write a function scale-posn that takes in a number
and a posn and returns a posn whose
coordinates are the number times the corresponding coordinate of the
parameter.
Write a function add-posns that takes in two
posns and returns a posn whose x coordinate
is the sum of the x coordinates of the parameters, and likewise for the
y coordinates.
Write a function reddish? that takes in a color and
tells whether the red component is the largest of the three
components.
Write a function invert that takes in a color and two
numbers (which we'll call x and y), and produces the
negative of the given color by subtracting each color component from 255.
Once you've tested this by itself, try calling
