- AI a modern approach 10.3 The monkey-and-bananas problem is faced by a monkey in a laboratory with some bananas hanging out of reach from the ceiling. A box is available that will enable the monkey to reach the bananas if he climbs on it. Initially, the monkey is at A, the bananas at B, and the box at C. The monkey and box have height Low, but if the monkey climbs onto the box he will have height High, the same as the bananas. The actions available to the monkey include Go from one place to another, Push an object from one place to another, ClimbUp onto or ClimbDown from an object, and Grasp or Ungrasp an object. The result of a Grasp is that the monkey holds the object if the monkey and object are in the same place at the same height. a. Write down the initial state description.b. Write the six action schemas.c. Suppose the monkey wants to fool the scientists, who are off to tea, by grabbing the bananas, but leaving the box in its original place. Write this as a general goal (i.e.,…arrow_forwardQ1.nq.

Output explanation: ➢ Sample 1 yes: sum 2,782,351,934, 1 st person: {10022120, 2343520822, 428808992}, 2nd person: {2779943396, 2408538} ➢ Sample 2 no, there’s no possibility to equally divide the bid bonds. Questions: a. Design your algorithm in a pseudocode! (PS: use dynamic programming algorithm) b. Do analysis for your algorithm resulting in an asymptotic notation! (PS: the bid bond value can be quite large in trillion (1012)) c. Prove that your algorithm is correct and create your own input / output for 4 cases, and minimum number of bid bonds for each case is 20!arrow_forward
- The Fibonacci sequence is listed below: The first and second numbers both start at 1. After that, each number in the series is the sum of the two preceding numbers. Here is an example: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ... If F(n) is the nth value in the sequence, then this definition can be expressed as F(1) = 1 F(2) = 1 F(3) = 2 F(4) = 3 F(5) = 5 F(6) = 8 F(7) = 13 F(8) = 21 F(n) = F(n - 1) + F(n - 2) for n > 2 Example: Given n with a value of 4F(4) = F(4-1) + F(4-2)F(4) = F(3) + F(2)F(4) = 2 + 1F(4) = 3 The value of F at position n is defined using the value of F at two smaller positions. Using the definition of the Fibonacci sequence, determine the value of F(10) by using the formula and the sequence. Show the terms in the Fibonacci sequence and show your work for the formula.arrow_forwardQ1 The periodic function sin(2x) has multiple roots between x values of -5π and 5π.

- Tennis is a racket sport that is played by two opposing players on S sets. Each set consists of at least Kgames. A set is won by a player if that player wins at least K games and at least 2 games more than theopponent. Once a set is won, the set is ended and the match continues to a new set (if any) where bothplayers start from 0 game won for that new set.For example, let K = 6, then a set can be ended with any of the following.• P1 (Player 1) wins 6 games while P2 (Player 2) wins 3 games → P1 wins the set.• P1 wins 7 games while P2 wins 9 games → P2 wins the set.On the other hand, a set cannot be ended with any of the following.• P1 wins 6 games while P2 wins 5 games → no player wins at least 2 games more than the opponent.• P1 wins 0 game while P2 wins 5 games → no player wins K = 6 games.• P1 wins 7 games while P2 wins 0 games → the set is already ended when P1 won the first 6 games.• P1 wins 8 games while P2 wins 5 games → the set must already be ended before it reaches this…arrow_forwardThe birthday paradox in probability theory asks what is the probability that in a set of n randomly chosen people, at least two of them share the same birthday. It is referred to as a paradox because many people wouldn't believe it when you hear the answer. In a room of 23 randomly chosen people, the probability that at least two of them share the same birthday is around 50%! Can you believe it? So even in smaller classes at SBU, the probability that at least two people share the same birthday is close to 100%! Instead of expecting you to simply accept this conclusion, we will be doing a little experiment to convince you that it's valid. Complete the function birthday_paradox, which takes one parameter, num_students, the number of students in a room. The function generates num_students random integers in the range [1, 365] and returns False if the values are all unique, or True if there is at least one duplicated value. As num_students increases, the likelihood that there is at least…arrow_forwardThe 4th problem mimics the situation where eagles flying in the sky can be spotted and counted.FindEagles: a recursive function that examines and counts the number of objects (eagles) in aphotograph. The data is in a two-dimensional grid of cells, each of which may be empty (value 0) orfilled (value 1 to 9). Maximum grid size is 50 x 50. The filled cells that are connected form an object(eagle). Two cells are connected if they are vertically, horizontally, or diagonally adjacent. Thefollowing figure shows 3 x 4 grids with 3 eagles. 0 0 1 21 0 0 01 0 3 1 FindEagle function takes as parameters the 2-D array and the x-y coordinates of a cell that is a part ofan eagle (non-zero value) and erases (change to 0) the image of an eagle. The function FindEagleshould return an integer value that counts how many cells has been counted as part of an eagle and havebeen erased. The following sample data has two pictures, the first one is 3 x 4, and the second one is 5 x 5 grids. Notethat your program…arrow_forward
- Please write the code for the given question in Java language.arrow_forwardIn the Mystical Garden, each flower is associated with a secret numerical code that guards its mystical properties. The code validation process involves a series of botanical calculations. The validation process is described as follows: . Calculate the product of the digits at prime positions (1-based index) from left to right. Calculate the sum of the cubed digits at non-prime positions from left to right. If the absolute difference between the results from step 1 and step 2 is a perfect square, the flower code is considered valid; otherwise, it is invalid. Example: Consider the mystical flower code 73921546. Step 1. Calculate the product of the digits at prime positions. 7*3*1*5=105 Step 2. Calculate the sum of the cubed digits at non-prime positions. 9^3 + 2^3 +4^3 +6^3=729+8+64 +216 = 1017 Step 3. If the absolute difference between the results from step 1 and step 2 is a perfect square. |105 - 1017|=912 (not a perfect square) Flower code 73921546 is invalid. Your task is to write a…arrow_forwardIN HASKELL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE PLEASE In case you do not know it: the game is played on a 3x3 grid that is initially empty. Two players are playing, by alternatingly making moves. A move by a player places their token (an X for player 1, an O for player 2) into a cell that was empty. We are using algebraic notations for indexing the positions in the board, with A,B,C indexing the columns and 1,2,3 the rows. Specifically, these coordinates would be used in the implementation for moves made by a human player. If the X X O Figure 1: Sample board position same token appears 3 times in any of the three columns, three rows or two main diagonals the game is over and that player wins. If the grid is filled without that happening the game is a draw. For the depicted board, we have Xs in positions C3 and A2, and an O in position B1. It would be O’s turn to make a move; a legal move would be C2, but it is not a good move, because X can force a win by responding A1. O cannot force a win, but…arrow_forward
