Question
Modular Programming :
Your program should be modular and consists of the following functions:
a) read():
- Ask the user for a valid atomic number (Z)
b) compute_binding_energy(Z, table):
- Build the table (a list of lists) of binding energy where the columns are:
the mass number (A), the binding energy (Eb) and the binding energy per
nucleon (BEN), while the rows range from A = Z to A = 4Z
c) most_stable(table) :
- Find and return the row that contains the highest binding energy per
nucleon, which corresponds to the most stable configuration.
d) print_table(table):
- Print the table in a neat tabular format as shown in the sample run in
figure 2.
e) write_to_file(table, file_name):
- Save the table in a text file output.txt as shown in figure 3.
4
f) main():
- The main function is set up to make the calls to the functions as
specified in points a) to e)

Transcribed Image Text:1. Problem Description:
The total nuclear binding energy is the energy required to split a nucleus of an
atom in its component parts: protons and neutrons, or, collectively, the nucleons.
It describes how strongly nucleons are bound to each other. When a high amount
of energy is needed to separate the nucleons, it means nucleus is very stable
and the neutrons and protons are tightly bound to each other.
The atomic number or proton number (symbol Z) is the number of protons found
in the nucleus of an atom. The sum of the atomic number Z and the number of
neutrons N gives the mass number A of an atom.

The binding energy per nucleon (BEN) is calculated by dividing the binding
energy (Eb) by the mass number (A).
You are asked to write a program that requests the user for a valid atomic
number (Z) then goes through all values of A from A = Z to A = 4Z. For example,
if the user inputs 5 for Z then A will be all numbers from 5 (Z) to 20 (4 Z)
inclusive, see the example output in figure 2.
If the user enters invalid atomic number that is not between 1 and 118, the
program should give the user another chance to enter a valid input as shown in
figure 2.
Your main task is to find the nucleus with the highest binding energy per nucleon,
which corresponds to the most stable configuration (figure 2), and writes a copy
of the table to a text file named output.txt (figure3).

The method should accept two arguments: The first argument is the exponent and the second argument is the number to be raised (example” powCal(10,2) means 210). Assume that the exponent is a nonnegative integer. Demonstrate the method in a program called Recursive (This means that you need to write a program that has at least two methods: main and powCal. The powCal method is where you implement the requirements above and the main method is where you make a method call to demonstrate how your powCal method work).arrow_forwardLAB ASSIGNMENTS IMPORTANT: you should complete the PDP thinking process for each program.
