Projectile Height¶

  • A mass point launched from initial height $h_0$ (meters) with initial vertical velocity $v_0$ (m/s).

  • Write a function height that takes $h_0$, $v_0$ and time $t$ (seconds) in all 64-bit floating point numbers and returns the height of the mass point at time $t$.

  • In a mathematical expression,

$$ {\rm height}(h_0, v_0, t) = h_0 + v_0 t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 $$

  • where $g = 9.8$ [m/s${}^2$].

  • Boilerplate source files {go,jl,ml,rs}/projectile_height.{go,jl,ml,rs} containing the test code is generated and shown below.

  • Edit the source files either by opening them in a text editor (e.g., vscode), or editing the cells below and executing them.

2. Go¶

2-1. Baseline code¶

In [ ]:
import heytutor
In [ ]:
%%writefile_ go/projectile_height.go
package main
import "fmt"
import "math"

/** begin my answer */
func height(h0, v0, t float64) float64 {
    return h0 + v0*t - 0.5*9.8*t*t
}
/** end my answer */

func main() {
    if !(math.Abs(height(10,  1, 1) - 6.1) < 1e-5) { panic("wrong") }
    if !(math.Abs(height(20,  0, 2) - 0.4) < 1e-5) { panic("wrong") }
    if !(math.Abs(height(30, -1, 3) - -17.1) < 1e-5) { panic("wrong") }
    fmt.Println("OK")
}

2-2. Compile¶

In [ ]:
%%bash_
export PATH=${PATH}:~/.local/go/bin:~/go/bin
go build -o go/projectile_height go/projectile_height.go
  • Note: when you run go or other Go commands in a terminal (SSH or Jupyter terminal), you need to execute the first line (export PATH=${PATH}:~/go/bin)
  • You may consider adding that line in your ~/.bash_profile

2-3. Run¶

In [ ]:
%%bash_
go/projectile_height

2-4. Ask Questions or Get Feedback¶

In [ ]:
%%hey problem_file=projectile_height.md answer_file=go/projectile_height.go

Problem:
{problem}
My Answer (between /** begin my answer */ and /** end my answer */):

3. Julia¶

3-1. Baseline code¶

In [ ]:
import heytutor
In [ ]:
%%writefile_ jl/projectile_height.jl
### begin my answer

height(h0, v0, t) = h0 + v0 * t - 0.5 * 9.8 * t * t
### end my answer

function main()
    @assert abs(height(10,  1, 1) - 6.1) < 1e-5
    @assert abs(height(20,  0, 2) - 0.4) < 1e-5
    @assert abs(height(30, -1, 3) - -17.1) < 1e-5
    println("OK")
end

main()

3-2. Compile¶

  • Julia code is compiled "just in time" (compiled upon executed), so does not need a specific action for compilation before you run

3-3. Run¶

In [ ]:
%%bash_
export PATH=${PATH}:~/.juliaup/bin
julia jl/projectile_height.jl
  • Note: when you run julia or other Julia commands in a terminal (SSH or Jupyter terminal), you need to execute the first line (export PATH=${PATH}:~/.juliaup/bin)
  • You may consider adding that line in your ~/.bash_profile

3-4. Interactive execution¶

  • julia command also serves is an interactive command for Julia programs

  • You can run a source code and continue interaction

$ julia -i jl/projectile_height.jl
  • For trial and error, you may also consider creating a Julia notebook

3-5. Ask Questions or Get Feedback¶
