The problem to solve

An example problem from the textbook Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Serway and Jewett:

Let's solve this using Symbolism, a C# library for computer algebra and symbolic computation.

Symbol definitions

#include "stdio.h"
#include "stdlib.h"

unsigned int max(unsigned int a, unsigned int b) {
    return a > b ? a : b;
}

unsigned int bucket(unsigned int val) {
    return val & 0xF0000000 >> 28;
}

/*
 * Test app that turns three solenoid valves on at set intervals and duration over a
 * set time period
 */

// The time to test the current time against
long startTime = 0;

// Poorly named variable - the time before the timer resets itself back to '0'
long dayLength = 6000;

TL;DR

Create a backup:

pg_dumpall > mybackup.sql

Perform the upgrade:

sudo pg_dropcluster 9.4 main --stop
