Baseline response (no ZPI)
```csharp
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
// Calculate the log base 2 of 32
double result = Math.Log(32, 2);
Console.WriteLine(result);
}
}
```
Enhanced response (with ZPI)
To evaluate log base 2 of 32, we can use the property of logarithms that states log_b(x^n) = n·log_b(x). Since 32 = 2^5, we can rewrite log_2(32) as log_2(2^5). Applying the property, we get log_2(2^5) = 5·log_2(2).
Since log_b(b) = 1, we know that log_2(2) = 1. Therefore, log_2(32) = 5·1 = 5.
Here is a simple C# function to calculate this:
```csharp
public class LogCalculator
{
public static double LogBase2(double number)
{
return Math.Log(number, 2);
}
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
double result = LogBase2(32);
Console.WriteLine($"The log base 2 of 32 is {result}");
}
}
```
This code uses the `Math.Log` function with a base of 2 to calculate the logarithm. The result will be 5, confirming our manual calculation.
Note that this implementation does not require any logging or dependency injection, as it is a simple mathematical calculation.
Grader chain
Each grader reads the same baseline + enhanced pair and casts an independent verdict. Disagreement is the framework's own signal — not noise to be averaged away.
