Part 3. arange Method
Define a method in simpy named arange. Its purpose is to fill in the values attribute with range of values, like the range built-in function,
but in terms of floats. It has three parameters in addition to self, the last being optional:
1. start - a float indicating the first value in the range
2. stop - a float that is not included in the produced range values
3. step - a float whose default value is 1.0 that indicates how to increase (or decrease) each subsequent item in the generated range. Unlike the built-
in range function, this can be a fractional, float value. Step cannot be 0.0.
Think carefully about what the value of step tells you about how to design your loop(s) for this method. Before any looping, you should
assert step != 0.0 to be sure you avoid an infinite loop with an invalid argument.
positive = Simpy([])
positive.arange(1.0, 5.0)
print("Actual: ", positive, " - Expected: Simpy([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0])")
fractional = Simpy([])
positive.arange (0.0,…
Instructor note:
This lab is part of the assignment for this chapter.
This lab uses two Java files, LabProgram.java and SimpleCar.java. The SimpleCar class has been developed and provided to you already. You don't need to change anything in that class. Your job is to use the SimpleCar class to complete the specified tasks in the main() method of LabProgram.java
Given two integers that represent the miles to drive forward and the miles to drive in reverse as user inputs, create a SimpleCar object that performs the following operations:
Drives input number of miles forward
Drives input number of miles in reverse
Honks the horn
Reports car status
The SimpleCar class is found in the file SimpleCar.java.
Ex: If the input is:
100 4
the output is:
beep beep Car has driven: 96 miles

Problem description:You are to write a program called Seasons that prompts the user for a month and day and displays the season in which that date occurs. For reference, we will use the following date cutoffs for the various seasons:
Winter
December 21 – March 19
Spring
March 20th – June 20th
Summer
June 21st – September 20th
Fall
September 21st – December 20th
Data Validation
For this program, you'll write a specific method to perform data validation based on the month and day entered. More specifically:
Month – the month entered must be a valid month of the year (January – December).
Day – the day entered must be a valid day for that month:
January, March, May, July, August, October, December have 1-31 days.
April, June, September, November have 1-30 days.
February has 1-28 days (do not worry about leap years)
Required program decomposition
String getMonth(Scanner console)
This method is called from the main method and should prompt for the month as a string…

- The class provided represents a car. Information about a car includes the brand name of the car and the year it was manufactured. When ordering cars they are ordered in descending alphabetical order by their brand name (z-a). If cars have the same brand name then they are ordered in ascending order by their year. Here is an example of some ordered cars: 2019 Toyota 2012 Subaru 2017 Subaru 2019 Mazda 2018 Kia The Car class is missing a required method.

The game is played on a varying size grid board. The player controls a spider. The spider, being a fast creature, moves in the pattern that emulates a knight from the game of chess. There is also an ant that slowly moves across the board, taking steps of one square in one of the eight directions. The spider's goal is to eat the ant by entering the square it currently occupies, at which point another ant begins moving across the board from a random starting location. Game Definition: The above Figure illustrates the game. The yellow box shows the location of the spider. The green box is the current location of the ant. The blue boxes are the possible moves the spider could make. The red arrow shows the direction that the ant is moving - which, in this case, is the horizontal X-direction. When the ant is eaten, a new ant is randomly placed on one of the…arrow_forward
- Write an enumerated data type that describes types of triangles based on the number of equal sides. The types are equilateral (3 equal sides), isosceles (2 equal sides), and scalene (0 equal sides). Write the complete enum. Include a variable/field in the enum that represents the number of equal sides for that type of triangle. Include a getter for this variable. Include a toString method. Write a statement to create a variable of your enum type called myFavoriteTriangleType. Initialize the variable to some value. This statement would go in a separate class, perhaps in a main method.arrow_forwardProgram Specifications Write a FancyCar class to support basic operations such as drive, add gas, honk horn and start engine. fancy_car.py is provided with function stubs. Follow each step to gradually complete all instance methods. Note: This program is designed for incremental development. Complete each step and submit for grading before starting the next step. Only a portion of tests pass after each step but confirm progress. The main program includes basic calls to the instance methods. Add statements in the main program as instance methods are completed to support development mode testing. **Step 0: Complete the constructor to initialize the model and miles per gallon (MPG) with the values of the parameters. Initialize the odometer to five miles and the tank to be full of gas. By default, the model is initialized to "Old Clunker", and MPG is initialized to 24.0. Note the provided constant variable indicates the gas tank capacity of 14.0 gallons. Step 1 Complete the instance…arrow_forwardCreate one more method in the Starship class: encounter(self, enemy_ship) This method takes in self, along with another Starship object. The method should simulate a battle between the two ships. How the method is implemented is almost entirely up to you. You could take in user input for each crew member, or have them each act randomly from the available options, or specify exactly what a given crew member of each type should do. The only requirements are as follows: Each crew member on each ship should get at least one “turn” before the battle is complete. If the crew member is Injured on their turn, they should do nothing. You may assume that each ship will have at least one crew member uninjured when the encounter begins. You shouldn’t make any assumptions about how many crew members there will be on a given ship, where they will start, or about which subclasses will be present - it’s possible that you’ll have test cases including a ship with no captain, or no doctor.…arrow_forward
