Question

Consider the following two implementations of the same algorithm, each written in a different language.

Language A: Calculate the average daily rainfall for the week (averageRainfall) by adding together the rainfall totals for each of the 7 days of the week (sun, mon, tue, wed, thu, fri, and sat) and dividing the sum by 7.
Language B: Take the total amount of rain from each day of the week (sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday and saturday) and then average them together to get the average daily rainfall for the week (averageRainfall).
Which of the following statements about these two implementations is true?
1. Language A is ambiguous because it is unclear what sun, mom, tue, wed, thu, fri, and sat refer to in context with the problem.
2. The algorithms in both languages are ambiguous because they do not specify the actual values of the seven daily rainfall totals.
3. Language B is ambiguous because the process of "average" is not explained well enough for someone to computationally be able to solve the problem.
4. Neither of these languages is clear enough that a programmer could write a correct solution in a high-level programming language.

Answer 1

Option 3 is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following option is true because It requires that cumulative number for rain per day of the following weeks as well as eventually averages these collectively that provide an overall total rainfall during the week.

Thus, Language B seems uncertain, since the "average" method may not be clarified clearly enough for someone to be capable of solving the question computationally.

So, the following are the reasons that describe the other options that are not relevant according to the question.
