Which of the following statement is true for Service Request Floods A. An attacker or group of zombies attempts to exhaust server resources by setting up and tearing down TCP connections B. It attacks the servers with a high rate of connections from a valid source C. It initiates a request for a single connection

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.)

What statement best describes operating systems? it’s possible for modern computers to function without operating systems. most operating systems are free or very inexpensive. operating systems are managed by the computer’s microprocessor (cpu). operating systems manage the computer’s random access memory (ram).

When early motion pictures played in movie theaters, they were often accompanied by live organ or piano music. which of the following are the most likely reasons that this happened? (select all that apply). the music was provided to distract audience members from the loud sounds made when filmstrips were changed. the music accompanied the movies because the movies were silent and audiences were used to hearing music during plays in theaters. the music usually was played before, and sometimes after the movie, as an alternative form of entertainment. the music viewers to interpret the dramatic action in the films.
