Question
Write a program that simulates the rolling of two dice. The program should use rand to roll the first dice and should use rand again to roll the second dice. The sum of the two values should then be calculated. Note: Since each dice can show an integer value from 1 to 6, then the sum of the to values will vary from 2 to 12, with 7 being the most frequent sum and 2 and 12 being the least frequent sums. Below shows the 36 possible combinations of the two dice. Your program should roll the two dice 36,000 times. Use a single-subscripted array to tally the numbers of times each possible sum appears. Print the results in a tabular format. Also, determine if the totals reasonable (i.e. there are six ways to roll a 7, so approximately one sixth of all the rolls should be 7).

- Exercise III: Catalan numbers For n e N, denote by c, to be the number of ways to form a "mountain range" with n upstrokes (U) and n downstrokes (D) that all stay above a horizontal line. For instance: for n = 1, only UD is allowed, so c = 1; • for n = 2, only UUDD and UDUD are allowed, so c2 = 2. 1. Check that c3 = 5 by writing down or drawing all possible options. 2. Consider the power series +00 g(x) = 2 n=0 (by definition co = 1) called the generating function of the sequence (en). Justify that cn < 4" for each n, and deduce that the radius of convergence of g is at least 1/4. 3. It can be show that for r E (-1/4, 1/4), g(x) = 1+ xg(r)? and therefore 1- VI 4.x g(x) = 2.x Use this formula and the known power series of V1+ x to write the first terms of the power series expansion of g, in the form g(x) = co + c1x + c2x2 + C3x + c4x* + ·.. Show how you obtain a few terms, but you do not need to show all computations and you can use a calculator for fractions. Check that you recover co,…arrow_forwardIn various applications, you are often asked to compute the mean and standard deviation of data. The mean is simply the average of the numbers. The standard deviation is a statistic that tells you how tightly all the various data are clustered around the mean in a set of data. For example, what is the average age of the students in a class? How close are the ages? If all the students are the same age, the deviation is 0. Write a program that prompts the user to enter any number of values into a double array, and then calculates and displays the mean and standard deviations of these numbers using the following formulas: mean)? 2i +x2 + .. + xn i=1 i=1 mean = deviation = п - 1arrow_forwardGet the people's of code.arrow_forward
- By using while loop OR do..while loop, write a program that displays a list of groceries. Then, allow user to insert number of product that they want to buy, the item's code and quantity for each item. Finally, display the total price that the user needs to pay. Valid input for the number of product and quantity is positive number. Meanwhile valid number for items' code is only from 1 to 4. 1 Cooking oil 2 Curry powder RM 3.40 3 Detergent Potato chips RM 2.50 RM 8.50 4 RM 3.20 Sample output Emer number of product that you want to purchase (press 0 to exit) : 2 1.Enter item's code that you want to buy : 3 1.Enter the quantity of item that you want to buy: 1 2.Enter item's code that you want to buy : 0 2.Enter the quantity of item that you want to buy: 0 2.Enter item's code that you want to buy : 1 2.Enter the quantity of item that you want to buy; 2 Total price is RM 13.50arrow_forwardPart 1: Complete the survey. Part 2: Peek-a-boo is a fun game that little kids like to play. To simulate this game on the computer, write a program that will generate a random number between 1 and 4. Then, will print to the screen the animal name associated to that number. The animal names used will be: pig when a 1 is generated cow when a 2 is generated chicken when a 3 is generated horse when a 4 is generated If your program generates a 3, the output will be: chicken The player will then enter a 1 if they would like to play again or anything else to exit the program. If the player enters "1 1 1 0", the output will be: horse chicken cow horse For coding simplicity, follow each output animal by a space, even the last one. Hint: To make testing easier, seed your random number generator with 0.arrow_forward1. Write a pyrhon program that prints out a classic hangman stick figure. The program should ask the user to enter a number from 1-6 and the corresponding hangman should be printed. The value the user inputs corresponds to the number of incorrect guesses in a real hangman game and so the completeness of the hangman will correspond to the number of ‘incorrect guesses’ inputted by the user (e.g., if the user enters 1, then only the head of the hangman will be printed; full example below). Example:Enter a number from 1-6: 1O Enter a number from 1-6: 2O|Enter a number from 1-6: 3O\||Enter a number from 1-6: 4O\|/|Enter a number from 1-6: 5O\|/|/Enter a number from 1-6: 6O\|/|/ \ 2. Modify your program from problem 1 so that the user input is checked to be a validsingle digit (1-6) before printing the corresponding hangman. If the input is not valid, theninstead of a hangman the following message should be printed “Invalid input: you must enter asingle number from 1-6.” Example:Enter a…arrow_forward
- A retail company assigns a $5000 store bonus if monthly sales are more than $100,000; otherwise a $500 store bonus is awarded. Additionally, they are doing away with the previous day off program and now using a percent of sales increase to determine if employees get individual bonuses. If sales increased by at least 4% then all employees get a $50 bonus. If they do not, then individual bonuses are 0. Step 7: The final step in completing the pseudocode is to call all the modules with the proper arguments. Complete the missing lines. Module main () //Declare local variables Declare Real monthlySales Declare Real storeAmount Declare Real empAmount Declare Real salesIncrease //Function calls Call getSales(monthlySales) Call getIncrease(salesIncrease) Call ______________(_______________, _____________) Call ______________(_______________, _____________) Call ______________(_______________, _____________) End Modulearrow_forwardWrite a program that plays a dice game called "21" It is a variation on BlackJack where one player plays against the computer trying to get 21 or as close to 21 without going over. Here are the rules of the game: You will play with dice that have numbers from 1 to 11. To win, the player or the computer has to get to 21, or as close as possible without going over. If the player or computer goes over 21, they instantly lose. If there is a tie, the computer wins. Starting the game: The player is asked to give the computer a name. For now, we'll simply call the computer opponent, "computer." The game starts with rolling four dice. The first two dice are for the player. These two dice are added up and the total outputted to the screen. The other two dice are for the computer. Likewise, their total is outputted to the screen. Player: If a total of 21 has been reached by either the player or the computer, the game instantly stops and the winner is declared.

- A magic date is one when written in the following format, the month times the date equals the year e.g. 6/10/60. Write code that figures out if a user entered date is a magic date. The dates must be between 1 - 31, inclusive and the months between 1 - 12, inclusive. Let the user know whether they entered a magic date. If the input parameters are not valid, return false. examples: magicDate(6, 10, 60) -> truemagicDate(50, 12, 600) -> falsearrow_forwardA fish-finder is a device used by anglers to find fish in a lake. If the fish-finder finds a fish, it will sound an alarm. It uses depth readings to determine whether to sound an alarm. For our purposes, the fish-finder will decide that a fish is swimming past if:there are four consecutive depth readings which form a strictly increasing sequence (such as 3 4 7 9) (which we will call "Fish Rising"), orthere are four consecutive depth readings which form a strictly decreasing sequence (such as 9 6 5 2) (which we will call "Fish Diving"), orthere are four consecutive depth readings which are identical (which we will call "Constant Depth").All other readings will be considered random noise or debris, which we will call "No Fish."Create a Python program called "fishfinder_firstname_lastname" that takes 1 input of string of 4 numbers separated with comma. Your program must display "Fish Rising", "Fish Diving.", "Fish At Constant Depth" or "No Fish".Example:30,10,20,20 Must display No…arrow_forwardIn various applications, you are often asked to compute the mean and standard deviation of data.
