Question

hi

i am trying to program a code from these instruction :

First, design and implement a Python program that takes a positive whole number n as input and outputs the square root of n using the Babylonian algorithm. The Babylonian algorithm computes the square root of a positive number, n, as follows: 1. Make a guess at the answer (you can pick n/2 as your initial guess). 2. Compute r = n / guess 3. Set guess = (guess + r) / 2 4. Go back to step 2 for as many iterations as necessary. The more steps 2 and 3 are repeated, the closer guess will become to the square root of n. 5. Compare your calculated square root with the math.sqrt() result.
