Fudgey wants to distribute through specialty shops and also through supermarket chains.

Consider two functions
f (x; y) = (x10)2 + (y + 2)2; and
g(x; y) = (x ? 10)2 + (x ? y + 5)4
Please implement a basic gradient descent algorithm using python
Starting with (x; y) = (0; 0), and set up a xed learning rate = 0:5,
run the gradient descent algorithm for each function. Run for 10
iterations, and report both (x; y) and the function value at the end of
each iteration.
Adjust the , and nd out the fastest convergence (smallest function
value) after T steps (try T = 10 or 100).

The new Christmas scheme worked so well that Ariel, Shanice, Isaac, and Tyrone decided to try it also. They decided that no person would receive a gift from the person to whom s/he gave one. Unbeknownst to the others, each friend decided to give a gift card, but each chose a different kind. In addition, none of the friends gave or received a gift card that shared its first letter with his or her name. The person to whom Ariel gave a card was the person who gave the Starbucks gift. The other three cards were for Amazon, iTunes, and Target. The person whose name begins with the same letter as the card that Shanice gave was the person who received the Target card from the friend whose name begins with the same letter as the gift that Shanice received. Who gave what card to whom?

[ RACKET]

a) Write a recursive function (gen-list start end). This function will generate a list of consecutive integers, from start to end. If start > end then an empty list is generated.

For example: (gen-list 1 5) ---> (1 2 3 4 5)

b) write a recursive function pair-sum? that takes an integer sequence as generated by the gen-list function in exercise 4 above. This function tests whether any two adjacent values in the given list sum to the given val.

For example,

   (pair-sum? '(1 2 3) 3) ---> #t since 1+2=3. Similarly,

   (pair-sum? (gen-list 1 100) 1000) ---> #f since no two adjacent integers in the range 1 to 100 can sum to 1000.

You must use recursion, and not iteration. Please include explanation thanks.
