Different elements You are given an array A of size N. You can change any array element to any other integer in one operation. Determine the minimum number of operations that are required such that no two adjacent elements are equal. Input format • The first line contains T denoting the number of test cases. • The first line of each test case contains a single integer N. • The second line of each test case contains N space- separated integers denoting the elements of the array. Output format For each test case, print the minimum number of operations

C++ A robot is initially located at position (0; 0) in a grid [?5; 5] [?5; 5]. The robot can move randomly in any of the directions: up, down, left, right. The robot can only move one step at a time. For each move, print the direction of the move and the current position of the robot. If the robot makes a circle, which means it moves back to the original place, print "Back to the origin!" to the console and stop the program. If it reaches the boundary of the grid, print \Hit the boundary!" to the console and stop the program. A successful run of your code may look like:Down (0,-1)Down (0,-2)Up (0,-1)Left (-1,-1)Left (-2,-1)Up (-2,0)Left (-3,0)Left (-4,0)Left (-5,0)Hit the boundary! or Left (-1,0)Down (-1,-1)Right (0,-1)Up (0,0)Back to the origin! About: This program is to give you practice using the control ow, the random number generator, and output formatting. You may use <iomanip> to format your output. You may NOT use #include "stdafx.h".
In C programming language. Objectives:• Use of functions and passing by value and reference.• Use of selection constructs.• Use of repetition constructs (loops).• The use of the random number generator and seeding.• Display formatted output using input/outputstatements.• Use format control strings to format text output. Description: For this project you are tasked with building a user application that will select sets of random numbers. Your application must use functions and pass values and pointers. Your program will pick sets of 6 random numbers with values of 1 to 53. The user should be able to choose how many sets to produce. The challenge will be to ensure that no number in a set of 6 numbers is a repeat. The number can be in another set just not a duplicate in the same set of 6. Your program should prompt the user and ask them how many number sets they wish to have generated. The program should not exit unless the user enters a value indicating they wish to quit. Minimum…
python only define the following function: This function must reset the value of every task in a checklist to False. It accept just one parameter: the checklist object to reset, and it must return the (now modified) checklist object that it was given. Define resetChecklist with 1 parameter Use def to define resetChecklist with 1 parameter Use a return statement Within the definition of resetChecklist with 1 parameter, use return _in at least one place. Use any kind of loop Within the definition of resetChecklist with 1 parameter, use any kind of loop in at least one place.
Task 2: The formula for the area, A, of a triangle with sides of length a, b, and c is V[s(s – a)(s – b)(s – c)] A = Where (a + b + c) s = Write, test, and execute a function that accepts the values of a, b, and c as parameters from a calling function, and then calculates the values of s and [s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)]. If this quantity is positive, the function calculates A. If the quantity is negative, a, b, and c do not form a triangle, and the function should set A = -1. The value of A should be returned by the function. Test the function by passing various data to it and verifying the returned value.
python only** define the following function: This function must return the task status for a particular task from a checklist. These examples for taskStatus demonstrate how it works. As with addTask, there's the possibility that the task specified is invalid (in this case, because it isn't in the checklist). In that case, taskStatus must print a specific message ("That task does not exist."), and must return None. Define taskStatus with 2 parameters Use def to define taskStatus with 2 parameters Use a return statement Within the definition of taskStatus with 2 parameters, use return _ in at least one place. Do not use any kind of loop Within the definition of taskStatus with 2 parameters, do not use any kind of loop.
Give solution in C ++ Language with secreenshoot of source code. Part 01In this task, you need to do the following:• Write a function named displayMessage() that takes user name as input in character array and then shows greetings• Now take the name input in main() and pass the name as an argument to displayMessage() function• Change the displayMessage() method such that it returns the number of characters after displaying the greetings part 02Write a function power that takes two parameters a and b. And it returns the power as ab.
Please enumerate all of the situations when invoking inline functions will not get the expected results.
Add a function to get the CPI values from the user and validate that they are greater than 0. 1. Declare and implement a void function called getCPIValues that takes two float reference parameters for the old_cpi and new_cpi. 2. Move the code that reads in the old_cpi and new_cpi into this function. 3. Add a do-while loop that validates the input, making sure that the old_cpi and new_cpi are valid values. + if there is an input error, print "Error: CPI values must be greater than 0." and try to get data again. 4. Replace the code that was moved with a call to this new function. - Add an array to accumulate the computed inflation rates 1. Declare a constant called MAX_RATES and set it to 20. 2. Declare an array of double values having size MAX_RATES that will be used to accumulate the computed inflation rates. 3. Add code to main that inserts the computed inflation rate into the next position in the array. 4. Be careful to make sure the program does not overflow the array. - Add a…
Complete the process_name() function that takes a single string parameter name. You can assume that the name will always be in the format first name surname with a single space character between the first name and the surname. The function returns a string consisting of the first letter of the first name followed by the first three letters of the surname. All of the characters in the returned string should be in lowercase. Some examples of the function being used are shown below: For example: Test Result print(process_name("Damir Azhar")) dazh print(process_name("Ann Cameron")) acam Answer: (penalty regime: 0 %) Reset answer 1v def process_name (name): 2
Auto-graded programming assignments may use a Unit test to test small parts of a program. Unlike a Compare output test, which evaluates your program's output for specific input values, a Unit test evaluates individual methods to determines if each method: is named correctly and has the correct parameters and return type • calculates and returns the correct value (or prints the correct output) This example lab uses multiple unit tests to test the kilo ToPounds() function. Complete a program that takes a weight in kilograms as input, converts the weight to pounds, and then outputs the weight in pounds. 1 kilogram = 2.204 pounds (lbs). Ex: If the input is: 10 the output is: 22.040000000000003 lbs Note: Your program must define the method public static double kiloToPounds (double kilos) The program below has an error in the kilo ToPounds() method. 1. Try submitting the program for grading (click "Submit mode", then "Submit for grading"). Notice that the first two test cases fail, but the…
thello is a board game and you are expected to implement the move function for this game. Arguments passed to the function are - a symbol of the player making the move and x y coordinates of the cell at which the player wishes to make the move. The move function will be returning a boolean, false - if the move isn't feasible and true - if the move is feasible and this function will also make the move then i.e. make the required changes in the board. Input Format: Line 1: Integer n (Total number of moves) Line 2: Player 1 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Line 3: Player 2 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Note 1: Number of moves (i.e. n) is always even and Player 1 always starts the game. Note 2: If any player's coordinates are not valid, enter again till the right move. Main function is given for you reference. Sample Input: 2 24 15 25 Sample Output: 00000000 00000000 00001000 00011000 00021000 00000000 00000000 00000000 false 00000000 00000000…
