Problem 1. We usually write numbers in decimal form (or base 10), meaning numbers are composed using 10 different "digits" (0, 1, ..., 9). Sometimes though it is useful to write numbers hexadecimal or base 16. Now there are 16 distinct digits that can be used to form numbers: {0, 1,...,9, A, B, C, D, E, F) where A, B, C, D, E and F represent digits with values 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15, respectively. So for example, a 3 digit hexadecimal number might be 2B8= 8+ (B) 16+ (2) 16² = 8+ (11) 16+ (2) 16² = 696. (a) How many 2-digit hexadecimals are there in which the first digit is E or F? Explain your answer in terms of the additive principle (using either events or sets). (b) Explain why your answer to the previous part is correct in terms of the multiplicative principle (using either events or sets). Why do both the additive and multiplicative principles give you the same answer? (c) How many 3-digit hexadecimals start with a letter (A-F) and end with a numeral (0-9)? Explain. (d) How many 3-digit hexadecimals start with a letter (A-F) or end with a numeral (0-9) (or both)? Explain.

Programing C Just with #include Matrix Addition and Subtraction (Associatively) Write a program that performs matrices addition and subtraction. As shown in the example below, you have to ask the user for the number of rows and number of columns that both matrices should have (they both have to be the same size, that is why you only ask once). You will then ask the user for the values of each matrix. Then, you will print the values that the user inputted, the added values of both matrices, and the subtracted values (matrix 2 should be subtracted from matrix 1). In this challenge Guidelines/steps: • The number of rows and the number of columns should be global variables. • Once you get these two from the user, you should declare your two matrices in main. • Then, from main, you will call function aaa twice; first, you will send matrix 1 and populate it with values inputted by the user. You will call the function a second time, send matrix 2 and populate it. In other words, function aaa…

Programming Exercise 10 in Chapter 6 asks you find the mean and standard deviation of five numbers. Extend this programming exercise to find the mean and standard deviation of up to 100 numbers. Suppose that the mean (average) of n numbers x1, x2, . . ., xn is x. Then the standard deviation of these numbers is:S=sqrt(((x1-x)^2+(x2-x)^2+...+(xi-x)^2+...+(xn-x)^2)/n)

Use C Language Pascal’s Triangle Version 2 The Pascal triangle can be used to compute the coefficients of the terms in the expansion (a + b)n. For example, (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 where 1, 2, and 1 are coefficients. Write a C program that creates a two-dimensional matrix a representing the Pascal triangle of size n. For example, a Pascal triangle of size 10 is shown below:
code for this in C: Write a program that reads two matrices of integers. It then generates the sum and difference of the two matrices. The sum of the two matrices of the same size is a matrix with elements that are the sums of the corresponding elements of the two given matrices. Addition is not defined for matrices of different sizes. If A and B are matrices of the same size, then we define subtraction as follows: A – B = A + (-B). Thus, to subtract matrix B from matrix A, we simply subtract corresponding elements.
in c++ You are given an array A of non-negative integers of size m. Your task is to sort the array in increasing order and print out the original indices of the new sorted array. Example: A= {12, 2, 6, 10, 9, 24,23, 33} After sorting the new array becomes A= {2,6,9,10,12,23,24,33}. The required output should be sorted array and original indexes "1 2 4 3 0 6 7", index of 2 in original array was 1 , index for 6 was 2 and so on.
3. Write a recursive function that ассepts 8x8 array of an characters that represents a maze. Each position can contain either an X or a blank. Starting at position (0,1), list any path through the maze to get to the location (7,7). Only horizontal and vertical moves are allowed. If no path exists, write a message indicating there is no path. Moves can be made only to the locations that contain a blank. If an X is encountered, that path is blocked and another must be chosen.
