| - | Consider the following code: | ||
| - | <code scala> | ||
| - | def fact(n: Integer): Integer = | ||
| - | if (n == 1) 1 | ||
| - | else n*fact(n-1) | ||
| - | </code> | ||
| - | The function ''fact'' is not tail recursive and will quickly fill the call stack. Starting from the code stub below, implement a tail-recursive factorial: | ||
| - | <code scala> | ||
| - | def fact (n: Integer): Integer = { | ||
| - | def aux_fact(n: Integer, acc: Integer): Integer = | ||
| - | if (???) acc | ||
| - | else ??? | ||
| - | aux_fact(n,1) | ||
| - | } | ||

| - | A very fast way to numerically compute $math[sqrt{2}], is using Newton's Square Root approximation: | ||
| - | * Start with $math[x_0 = 1]. | ||
| - | * Compute $math[x_n = \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(x_n+\frac{1}{x_n})] | ||
