Exercise 4
A number, a, is a power of b if it is divisible by b and a/b is a power of b. Write a function called is_power that takes parameters a and b and returns True if a is a power of b. Note: you will have to think about the base case.

- 60 points Write a function which takes one parameter int num, and prints out a countdown timer with minutes and seconds separated by a colon (:). It should print out one line for each second elapsed and then pause one second before printing out the next line. After it has done all of this, it should call a special function ringAlarm () to sound an alarm. A few things to note: - You can assume that calling the function sleepytime () makes the program pause for one second - You can assume that calling the function ringAlarm () makes the program sound an alarm - It should count down from num minutes:zero seconds to zero minutes:zero seconds - Your function must have the following signature: void timer (int num) You do not need to demonstrate calling this function from main(). You don't need to format the output nicely; the below is acceptable output for calling this function when num is 10: 10:0 9:59 9:58 //...and so on, all the way down to: 9:1 9:0 8:59 8:58 //..and so on, all the way…arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about testing are always true. A. If a test fails, there must necessarily be a defect in the executed code. B. If a test passes, there cannot be a defect in any code executed by the test, but there could be a defect elsewhere in the function. C. If a test is unsound, that test passing or failing doesn't tell us whether or not a defect exists. D. All of the above are truearrow_forwardWarning ⚠️ Don't post AI generated answer or plagiarised answer. If I see these things I'll give you multiple downvotes and will report immediately.arrow_forward
- a. Write a function called IsPalindrome that receives a 3-digit number and returns whether it is palindrome or not. b. Write a function, called GCD that receives two parameters n, d, and prints their greatest common divisor a. Now after you created the two functions, you have to write a main function that can call the above functions according to user choice. Write a menu that allows the user to select from the following options 1. To use the IsPalindrome function you have to enter 1. 2. To use the GCD function you have to enter 2. 3. To Exit the program you have to enter 3. [use exit(0)] Once the user select one of the above choices you have to read the value entered by the user and then to call the respective function.arrow_forward7. Please help me answer this engineering questionarrow_forwardWhat is a stub? Group of answer choices A stub is an inline function with a single line that simply sends a "Hello" message to others, indicating that it has been activated. A stub is a function that has an empty body. It will be developed later. A stub is an inline function with a single line that simply increases the pass in value by one. A stub is a function with a single line that simply prints the name of the function, indicating that it has been activated. A stub is a short function that will generate an error message.arrow_forward
- Write a function "DivRemain" that will return both the dividend and the remainder from dividing two integers: 7 / 3 would return the numbers 2 and 1 (3 goes into 7 twice Example: with a remainder of 1)arrow_forwardDefine stubs for the functions get_user_num() and compute_avg(). Each stub should print "FIXME: Finish function_name)" followed by a newline, and should return -1. Each stub must also contain the function's parameters.

Rewrite the function so it uses pointers instead of reference variables, and then demonstrate the function in a complete program.int doSomething(int &x, int &y){int temp = x;x = y * 10;y = temp * 10;return x + y;}For example: if x = 5, y = 10 then the output should look like the following.arrow_forwardHow do you make a function with default arguments?arrow_forward
