Hm 4, q#2
 
I am taking N from 1 to 10000. So when calculating Devroye bound(d), i replace m_H(N^2) with (N^2)^dvc then it goes to infinity very quickly. I am using fixed point iteration to calculate the implicit bounds for each N. What i am doing wrong ?

Can someone plz post the graph for all four bounds ?

Thank you very much

You may want to take advantage of the fact that the bound involves the logarithm of this quantity, and use the identity {\rm ln} \ a^b = b \ {\rm ln} \ a \ to simplify the computation.
