Prepare a computer algorithm that evaluates the critical depth of a regular channel using the false position technique or a method of your choice. Verify the program with the following data:
(a) Circular section, Q 5 m3 /s, d 2.5 m
(b) Rectangular section, Q 125 ft3 /sec, b 12 ft
(c) Trapezoidal section, Q 120 m3 /s, b 10 m, m1 m2 5
(d) Triangular section, Q 250 ft3 /sec, m1 2.5, m2 3.0
