How to calculate arithmetic in python programming
determine whether W={(x,y,z)/ x+y+z+1=0, x,y,z element of real number} is a subspace of R^3 or not?
Let’s build a sample banking program to perform the common tasks like Withdraw and Deposit.
x=R^n
x=(x1,x2,x3,x4,....,xn).
y=(y1,y2,y3,y4,....,yn)
d(x,y)=√((x1-y1)^2+(x2-y2)^2+(x3-y3)^2+......+(xn-yn)^2)
Show that d is metric on x
