Chapter 2, Problem 7P

The “divide and average” method, an old-time method for approximating the square root of any positive number a can be formulated as

x = x + a / x 2

(a) Write well-structured pseudocode to implement this algorithm as depicted in Fig. P2.7. Use proper indentation so that the structure is clear.

(b) Develop, debug, and document a program to implement this equation in either a high-level language or a macro language of your choice. Structure your code according to Fig. P2.7.

Instead of typing commands directly in the Command Window, a series of commands can be placed into a file, and the entire file can be executed by typing its name in the Command Window. Such files are called files.
As4.  This is my third time asking this question. Please DO NOT copy and paste someone else's work or some random notes. I need an answer to this question.   There is a mass attached to a spring which is fixed against a wall. The spring is compressed and then released. Friction and is neglected. The velocity and displacement of the mass need to be modeled with an equation or set of equations so that various masses and spring constants can be input into Matlab and their motion can be observed. Motion after being released is only important, the spring being compressed is not important. This could be solved with dynamics, Matlab, there are multiple approaches.
