ADVANCED:
You are valuing a firm with a "pro forma" (i.e., with your forward projection of what the cash flows will be). The firm had cash flows of $1,000,000 today, and is growing by a rate of 20% per annum this year.
That is, in year 1, it will have a cash flow of $1.2 million. In each of the following years, the difference between the growth rate and the inflation rate of 2% (forever) halves.
Thus, from year 1 to year 2, the growth rate is 20%, then 2% + (20% - 2%)/2 = 11%, then 2% + (11% - 2%)/2 = 6.5%, and so on.
Assume that the appropriate discount rate for a firm of this riskiness is 12%. (It applies to the $1.2 million cash flow.)
What do you believe the value of this firm to be?
(Hint: It is common in pro formas to project forward for a given number of years, say, 5-10 years, and then to assume that the firm will be sold for a terminal value, assuming that it has steady growth.)

Measure the performance of copying of strings
: Compare the performance of the three complete_name() functions from §20.3.9 and §20.3.10. Try to write a version of complete_name() that runs as fast as possible. Keep a record of mistakes found during its implementation and testing.

Write a function that computes the sum of cubes
: Write a function that computes the sum of cubes of all odd numbers occurring in a list of integers. Write a function that computes the sum of numbers in a list of lists of numbers: sumOfSums(List(List 1, 2, 3), List(4, 5, 6)) = 21

Function that returns a stringrepresenting its intargument
: Write an input function that reads such strings as fast as you can think of. You can choose the interface to that function to optimize for speed rather than for convenience. Compare the result to your implementation's >> for strings.
