Question

Write the definition of a function typing_speed, that receives two parameters. The first is the number of words that a person has typed (an int greater than or equal to zero) in a particular time interval. The second is the length of the time interval in seconds (an int greater than zero). The function returns the typing speed of that person in words per minute (a float). Instructor Notes: For whatever reason, the formula they're looking for in this algorithm is:

Answer 1

Answer:

The function code and the formula for the above question is listed below:

Explanation:

Function:

float typing_speed(int Number_of_words, int Time_in_seconds)

{

float time= Time_in_seconds/60;

float speed= Number_of_words/time;

return speed;

}

Formula for this algorithm or program:

Number of words per minute= number of words/ Time(in minutes).

Function Explanation

• The above function defined in the c-language code, which is used to return the typing speed for any user when he enters the number of words and the time in seconds.
• The speed is calculated with the help of the above-defined formula.
• The first statement of the code is used to change the time in a minute.
• The second statement of the code is used to calculate the speed by the help of speed formula.
• Then the third statement returns the value of the speed variable.
