3. Outsmarting the Guard
by CodeChum Admin
Great! Thanks to your help I've now reached the enemy's base.
According to the plan, no one's supposedly going to see me but this guard has outsmarted me! He's big and mean and he's in here in front of me!
For some reason though, although he looks scary on the outside, he's soft in the inside. He agreed to let me pass as long as I could compute the factorial of certain number. Please help me, Programmer!
Instructions:
In the code editor, you are given the main() code with the initial version of the factorial() function.
To recap your basic math, the factorial of a number is basically the product of all the numbers from 1 up to that number. For example, the factorial of 5 is 120 because 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 = 120 and factorial of 3 is just 6 because 1 x 2 x 3 = 6. However, there's a special case and that is the factorial of 0 which is 1.
The initial factorial() function lacks the recursive case. Fix it so the…

4. Secret Divisionby CodeChum Admin
You're just in time! I'm now on a secret mission.
I'm currently inside the enemy's labs and I need to break through their security. It seems that it requires some division but I think if I use the division sign, their alarms would go off. I need to find a way to perform division without using the division sign...
Aha! Right! Repetitive Subtraction is the key! Can you help me with this, Programmer?
Instructions:
In the code editor, there is already a main() function that asks the user to input 2 integers: one for the dividend (the number found at the left side of the division) and one for the divisor (the number found at the right side of the division). In addition, there's also a call to the divide() function already.Your task is to implement the divide() function's definition by using recursion. DO NOT USE THE DIVISION OPERATOR.Also, do not edit anything in the main()Input
1. The dividend
2. The divisor

- (QUESTION) Using the required programming language (python, matlab, etc.) plot the variation of pressure on the piston surface as a function of time until the piston moves 9 m, with the help of the following commands below. This problem will be solved for U_p =1, 4, 16, 64, 256 m/s. We'll assume that the time starts at t = 0 when the piston starts moving. (PLEASE TAKE A SCREENSHOT OF THE PLOTTING AND OTHER RESULTS.) Note: Since we don't have the exact time intervals or the rate at which the piston moves, we'll assume a constant speed and divide the distance by the speed to get the time taken.
