Both k-means and k-medoids algorithms can perform effective clustering. (a) Explain the strength and weakness of k-means in comparison with the k-medoids algorithm. (b) Explain the strength and weakness of Partition clustering scheme in comparison with a hierarchical clustering scheme (such as AGNES).

Assume that to_the_power_of is a function that expects two int parameters and returns the value of the first parameter raised to the power of the second parameter. write a statement that calls to_the_power_of to compute the value of cube_side raised to the power of 3 and that associates this value with cube_volume.
