Computer Assignment2

The document defines a function to calculate the value of a for given values of lambda using the bisection method to find the root of another defined function. It then calculates the values of a and the extinction probability pi for a range of lambda values from 1.05 to 3.05 in increments of 0.05. Finally, it prints the table of lambda, a, and pi values and plots a graph of pi versus lambda.
