1. Write a MATLAB code segment that approximates eps. Start with epsest = 1.0 and halve epsest while 1.0+epsest > 1.0. Run it, and compare the result with the MATLAB’s eps.

2. This problem was developed from material on MATLAB Central (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/), and is due to Loren Shure.

 Describe the action of the MATLAB function fix.

 Enter and run the following code

 Explain why there is output when, theoretically, there should be none.
