Section 8: Program Branching and Controls 93

Examples

Example: Branching and Looping

A radiobiology lab wants to predict the

diminishing radioactivity of a test amount of

131

I, a radioisotope. Write a program to figure

the radioactivity at 3-day intervals until a

given limit is reached. The formula for N

, the

amount of radioisotope remaining after t days,

= N

-t/k

where k = 8 days, the half-life of

131

I, and N

is the initial amount.

The following program uses a loop to calculate the number of millicuries

(mci) of isotope theoretically remaining at 3-day intervals of decay.

Included is a conditional test to check the result and end the program when

radioactivity has fallen to a given value (a limit).

The program assumes t

 the first day of measurement  is stored in R

, N

 the initial amount of isotope  is stored in R

and the limit value for

radioactivity is stored in R
