You work for a webhosting company that offers a ton of hosting services (Flash Media, MySQL, Subversion) to its customers in addition to a base web hosting plan. You need to write an application that can easily compute the total monthly service fees for each plan. Your application must be able to easily support adding new types of hosting services (such as Ruby on Rails) when they become available.

Sample output could be:

> Basic Hosting, Subversion Hosting, Flash Media Server Hosting, MySQL Hosting(w/3 databases): 59.94 a month.

Implement the dining philosophers problem (described on pages 167-170 in the textbook (chapter 2.5. create a graphical user interface - showing which philosopher is eating, and which is waiting/thinking at any given time. show the forks. use java programming language for this project.

1. package newton’s method for approximating square roots (case study 3.6) in a function named newton. this function expects the input number as an argument and returns the estimate of its square root. the script should also include a main function that allows the user to compute square roots of inputs until she presses the enter/return key. 2. convert newton’s method for approximating square roots in project 1 to a recursive function named newton. (hint: the estimate of the square root should be passed as a second argument to the function.) 3. elena complains that the recursive newton function in project 2 includes an extra argument for the estimate. the function’s users should not have to provide this value, which is always the same, when they call this function. modify the definition of the function so that it uses a keyword parameter with the appropriate default value for this argument, and call the function without a second argument to demonstrate that it solves this problem. 4. restructure newton’s method (case study 3.6) by decomposing it into three cooperating functions. the newton function can use either the recursive strategy of project 1 or the iterative strategy of case study 3.6. the task of testing for the limit is assigned to a function named limitreached, whereas the task of computing a new approximation is assigned to a function named improveestimate. each function expects the relevant arguments and returns an appropriate value. 5. a list is sorted in ascending order if it is empty or each item except the last one is less than or equal to its successor. define a predicate issorted that expects a list as an argument and returns true if the list is sorted, or returns false otherwise. (hint: for a list of length 2 or greater, loop through the list and compare pairs of items, from left to right, and return false if the first item in a pair is greater.)

Acase study allows a more detailed look at the life of a single subject than any other study.
