B- Imagine you are trying to solve the following puzzle using the A* search algorithm. The puzzle involves two-digit numbers from 10 to 99. There are two legal actions: you can add 1 to any digit except 9 and you can subtract 1 from any digit except 0. (E.g., 10 can be changed, in one step, to 20 and 11, while 99 can be changed to 89 and 98). There is one restriction: you can never create the number 55. All actions have cost 100. The task is to find the shortest solution path from a given start number to a given goal number. Design and justify an admissible heuristic function for this puzzle.

During Eid, it is a tradition for every father to give his children money to spend on entertainment. Chef has N coins; denote the value of the coin i by vi. Since today is Eid, Chef gives one coin to each of his two children. He wants the absolute value of the difference between the values of the coins given to the two children to be as small as possible to be as fair as possible. Help the chef by telling him the minimum possible difference between the values of the coins given to the two children. Of course, the chef cannot give the same coin to both children.

Knight's Tour: The Knight's Tour is a mathematical problem involving a knight on a chessboard. The knight is placed on the empty board and, moving according to the rules of chess, must visit each square exactly once. There are several billion solutions to the problem, of which about 122,000,000 have the knight finishing on the same square on which it begins. When this occurs the tour is said to be closed. Your assignment is to write a program that gives a solution to the Knight's Tour problem recursively. You must hand in a solution in C++ AND Java. The name of the C++ file should be "main.cc" and the name of the Java file should be "Main.java". Write C++ only with a file name of main.cc Please run in IDE and check to ensure that there are no errors occuring Output should look similar to: 1 34 3 18 49 32 13 16 4 19 56 33 14 17 50 31 57 2 35 48 55 52 15 12 20 5 60 53 36 47 30 51 41 58 37 46 61 54 11 26 6 21 42 59 38 27 64 29 43 40 23 8 45 62 25 10 22 7 44 39 24 9 28 63
Count divisibles in range def count_divisibles_in_range(start, end, n): Let us take a breather by tackling a problem simple enough that its solution needs only a couple of conditional statements and some arithmetic, but not even one loop or anything even more fancy. The difficulty is coming up with the conditions that cover all possible cases of this problem exactly right, including all of the potentially tricksy edge and corner cases, without being off-by-one. Given three integers start, end and n so that start <= end, count how many integers between start and end, inclusive, are divisible by n. Sure, you could solve this problem with the list comprehension one-linerreturn len([x for x in range(start, end+1) if x % n == 0]) but of course the automated tester is designed so that anybody trying to solve this problem in such a blunt fashion will only find themselves running out of both time and space! Your code should have no loops at all, but use only integer arithmetic and…
Computer Engineering Lab The Government of United States of America has decided to issue new currency notes with special protection features to so as to commemorate a great mathematician. They have decided to issue notes summing up to N and all the sums from 1 to N should only made by selecting some of the notes in only one unique way. With n = 5 the sets {1,1,1,1,1}, {1,2,2}, {1,1,3} are valid. Your task is to design a C++ code that output the solution in one line. Sample Input - 100 Sample Output - 3
