Question
In a prison, there is a door b/w any pair of adjacent cells and one exit guarded by a guard G. One prisoner is a maniac M which kills anybody he can see when he enters a cell. If M returns to the cell with his victim, then he loses consciousness and stops. In the evening all inmates and the guard went to sleep in their cells. In the morning, maniac M is gone and all other prisoners with the guard were found dead in their cells. Show the route of the maniac.
Transcribed Image Text:This image depicts a grid-based maze commonly used in educational settings to teach problem-solving and computational thinking. The grid consists of a 6x6 matrix of cells.
### Explanation of Symbols:
- **G**: Represents the starting point of the maze.
- **P**: Represents passable paths.
- **M**: Represents the endpoint of the maze.
- **White Blocks**: Represent obstacles or barriers within the maze.
### Layout Description:
- The starting point, marked with a "G", is located in the cell at the top-left corner of the grid.
- The passable paths, marked with a "P", are cells that can be traversed from the starting point to the endpoint.
- The endpoint, marked with an "M", is located in the bottom-left cell of the grid.
- Obstacles are represented by white blocks distributed throughout the grid.
### Goal:
The objective is to navigate from the starting point (G) to the endpoint (M) by moving through the passable paths (P) and avoiding the obstacles.
This type of visual aid helps in developing strategic thinking by allowing learners to plan and visualize their moves. It can be applied in various educational contexts, such as teaching basic programming concepts where students can write algorithms to solve the maze.

If the nutrient of a plant runs out (its nutrient level becomes zero), the plant wastes away. There are three kinds of radiation on the planet: alpha, delta, no radiation. The different species of plants react to radiation differently. The reaction involves a change in the nutrient level of the plant and the radiation the next day. The radiation of the next day will be alpha radiation if the sum of the demand for alpha radiation over all plants is greater than the sum of the demand for delta radiation by at least three. If the demand for delta radiation is greater by at least three than the demand for alpha radiation, the radiation will be delta. If the difference is less than three, there will be no radiation. There is no radiation the first day. Each plant has a name (string), a nutrient level (int), and a boolean that denotes whether it's alive. The plant species are wombleroot, wittentoot and woreroot. The different plant species react to…arrow_forward
- X-Kingdom has trapped n number of soldiers of their opponent. They want to execute them. They created a strategy so that the prisoners will kill each other and at the end one prisoner will be alive and eventually released. As part of the process, they assigned each trapped soldier a sequence number starting from 1 and ending at n. If n = 5 and k = 2, then the safe position is 3. Firstly, the person at position 2 is killed, then person at position 4 is killed, then person at position 1 is killed. Finally, the person at position 5 is killed. So, the person at position 3 survives. If n = 7 and k = 3, then the safe position is 4. The people at positions 3, 6, 2, 7, 5, 1 are killed in order, and the person at position 4 survives.

For any student who does not share a first name with any other student, the cook can still only call that student's first name.

He told the name of the pardoned to the gourd. Night before execution, each prisoner is in his own cell and none are supposed to knowwho will be pardoned. John asks the guard to give him the name from the other two who will be executed. Guard answers that Peter will be executed. John gets happier - before the guard gave him the name, his probability to survive was 1/3, and now when he knows that either him or Paul will be pardoned, his probability to survive is higher = 1/2. Is it correct? Should John be happy?(Give YOUR EXPLANATION for the probabilities for John to be pardoned))arrow_forward
- In a school, students of 5th Grade are going for a picnic. For a particular game between 10 players, they needs to be organized in the ascending order of their height. Teacher selects a one random student out of 10. That student acts as a mediator, all students having height less than mediator goes on left and rest on his right. The same process repeats again between the left and right group. The process continues and will stop when all the players are in ascending order of their height. Signify which sorting algorithm can be helpful to design this model and how. What additional functionality can you add to this. Implement the given model. Write a C program for that and this program take user input like his/her name, height etc.arrow_forwardA group of individuals are living on an island when a visitor arrives with an unusual order: all blue-eyed people must leave the island immediately.

- There is a penalty kick scenario: the striker can shoot left, right or middle. Similarly, the goalkeeper can jump to the left, right or stay in the middle. Assume the striker never misses the goal when shooting to the center or to the left corner but misses 20% of the shots to the right corner. Further assume the goalkeeper can prevent a goal in 50% when he jumps to the correct corner, or 100% of the shots in the middle if he stays in the middle. 1) write down the bimatrix 2) for the striker, "right" is not a best response to any pure strategy. Find a mixed strategy such that "right" is the best response to sigma2.arrow_forwardThe cook must participate in the presence before each class, i.e. call out the names of the students one by one and indicate which students are present.
