If you click the link above you'll see a movie of a program written in tinyC that randomly displays hello all! for a while. This program uses a Windows-dependent plugin that positions the cursor and displays a message. If you click the QR Code above this link you'll see the source code of this tinyC program.

What characterizes a well-written computer program?

spoiler alert: you need calculus to do this.

determine the x coordinate such that the area under the red graph to the
left of the green line = 1/2 the area under the red graph to the right
of the green line. The red graph's function is y=-x(x-1).

You may use a calculator. Your answer should be accurate to 3 decimal digits.

Determine the value of the x-coordinate of the vertical black line that
splits the trapezoidal area defined by x-axis, the red line whose
equation is y= (1/2)x +1 and the two blue lines at x=2 and x=4 into two
trapezoids such that the area of the left trapezoid = 1/2 the area of
the right trapezoid. Show a 3-decimal digit accuracy in the answer.
