Here is the question:
1. Write and test a function subprogram called circleArea whose value is to be the area of a circle whose radius is given as the parameter of the function.

i'm going to pretend you aren't just expecting someone to write the program for you, and politely point out that in order for me to help you, i need to know what your problem is.

lately a lot of people have been asking for others to do something for them cause they don't know how. Does no one take the time to ask the teacher for help cause than atleast they will know you tried and put your effort into something (even if it doesnt work)

code:

function circleArea (radius : real) : real
result 3.14159*(radius)**2
end circleArea

var rad : real

put "Please enter in the radius: " ..
get rad

put "The area of the circle is: ", circleArea (rad)

im not positive on the formula for it, but i think i got it right its Prsquared is it not?

if the above formula isnt right, just change the result line
im pretty sure its either 3.14159 * radius * radius or the one i used above [/code]

that's fine, but there's a difference between helping someone with work and doing it for them (which is fine as long as they pay you for it). i wonder if TheDarkArcher will thank you for this or just take the code and never come back until he has another problem...

the point is by doing their work they aren't learning anything and in turn not getting any better.... thats why compsci.ca is here, to help, not to do their work

i'm not trying to offend you or anything, i'm just trying to point out why doing people's work is bad and wrong
