Question

I need to make a simple program for an assignment. It basically needs to evaluate a function for a number given by the user.

Answer 1

So I am thinking I will use java, since I am in an intro java course as well right now. I'll use a simpler formula than my physics assignment requires, but it should not make a difference for the programming.

Answer 2

ok say that I have the function \(f(x)=x^2+1\). I need to build a program that asks the user for the value of x, OR the value of \(y=x^{-1}\), and then will spit out the answer for f(x). I can't figure out how to do this.

Answer 3

Are you going to use the terminal for input or a graphical window?

Answer 4

I used a terminal input. Figured it out though.
