Your Map or Outline can be presented as you want. There are no specific requirements for how you present this map or outline, other than it should be presented as a one single page as a PDF file. However, your Map or Outline should apply concepts for information design, such as discussed in the text "Beyond Black and White: Document Design in the Writing Classroom" (which you were assigned to read for last week's assignment). Also, Chapter One of our textbook Open Technical Communication has some good information about Document Design strategies. A search online about Document Design or Information Design will also lead you to useful information. Ultimately, the Map or Outline that you create for this assignment should be easy for someone to understand, and it should be logical and visually appealing.

I need an easy MATLAB program, I will rate for it! and please explain! Mellon University have captured daily temperature and precipitation data for 210 US cities. One of their data sets (Seattle, Washington) is included for this Assignment (Precip.txt/dat). The data Set has six columns Year, Month, Date, TMax (*F), TMin (F), and Precipitation (in). Write a program that will work for any data file that meets the format as given in Precip.txt/dat Your program will read the data and reduce it so that an array of total monthly precipitation results. The row will be associated with the year of the data (1894 is the first year in the data set). The column will be associated with the month. Thus element (4,3) will be the value of the total amount of precipitation in March 1897. For ease of presentation, this matrix will be called TMP in your program. Based on the values in TMP, your program will output in a concise manner the answers to the following questions. Which month/year had the least precipitation (if there is a tie, the month/year closest to present day will be reported)? What is this value of precipitation? b. Which month/year had the greatest precipitation (if there is a tie, the month/year closest to present day will be reported)? What is this value of precipitation? be reported if there is a tie)? What is this value of precipitation? d. Which year had the greatest overall precipitation (again the year closest to present day will be reported if there is a tie)? What is this value of precipitation? Considering the amount of precipitation in each decade (e.g, 1 January 1990 through 31 December 1999), which decade had the least overall precipitation? What is this value of precipitation? f. Which decade had the greatest overall precipitation? What is this value of precipitation? Often times year-to-year changes are important. Compared to the previous year, which year had the greatest reduction in precipitation? What year is it and what is the amount of change? n. Compared to the previous year, which year had the greatest increase in precipitation? What year is it and what is the amount of change?

2. (35,2) (Circuit minimization). Given a function $f: \{0,1\}^l \to \{0,1\}$ we can encode it as a string $x_f$ of length $n = 2^l$ by considering its truth table. (That is $x_i = f(i)$). Consider the following language: Min-Circuit = \{$(x,s)$: The smallest boolean circuit computing the function $f$ encoded by $x$ is of size $s$\} Show that Min - Circuit $\in$ $P^{NP}$.

In a 6x6 multiplier using unsigned numbers, the multiplicand and multiplier are: 110101 and 010110 respectively. (a) Using the modified radix-4 Booth coding table shown below, find the radix-4 Booth coding for the multiplier. (b) Perform the multiplication and find the product using the radix-4 Booth coded digits. Show all partial products showing their relative bit positions correctly. Assume 2's complement arithmetic. (Note: Use sign extension when complement representation is used.) $X_{i+1}$ $X_i$ $X_{i-1}$ $Y_{i+1}$ $X_i$ $Z_{i2}$ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 -1 1 0 1 1 1 0 2 1 0 0 -1 0 -2 1 0 1 -1 1 -1 1 1 0 0 -1 -1 1 1 1 0 0 0
