Write a program that computes and displays the batting average for a baseball player when the user inputs the number of hits and at-bats for that player. Batting average is computed by dividing the number of hits by the number of at-bats. You will need the following variables:
Hits (an Integer) AtBats (an Integer) BatAvg (a Float)

Problem Description:
The bird of paradise called the Helipixsal is renowned for its magnificent tail feathers which range in number from five to
nine ornate feathers each of a different length. Their "magnificence" is quantified by the rather simple process of
counting the exact number of tail feathers and multiplying this by the difference in the length of the minimum and
maximum lengths of tail feather.
You are to write a simple program that will allow the user to enter the length of each tail feather individually and keep on
entering feathers until a -1 is entered. The program will then return the quantified "magnificence" factor.
Problem:
A small company needs an interactive program to compute an employee’s paycheck. The payroll clerk will initially input the data, and given the input data, an employee's wage for the week should be displayed on the screen for the payroll check.
The data for the employee includes the employee's hourly pay rate and the number of hours worked that week. Wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked (up to 40 hours). If the employee worked more than 40 hours, wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times 40 hours plus 1½ times the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked above 40.
Instructions:
Match the action at the left-side with the correct step number at the right-side (the attached picture). Note that it may be possible to group more than one related actions in the same logical step / process without altering the essence of the algorithm.
In the program flow, input and checking of hourly pay rate should come before that of the number…

- IN PYTHON PLEASE AND FLOWCHART DRAWING COMPUTERIZED PLEASE!! In many businesses across the country, people are buying food and goods using cash. Whenever a purchase is made with cash, it is usual that change must be back to the customer. Business point of sales software help to ensure that the correct change is return to a customer by providing detailed information of the change that should be returned to the customer. using the fewest number of bills and coins. In this assignment, you are asked to design and implement a program that writes out what bills (ones, fives, tens, twenties) and coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters) that should be returned to the customer given two inputs from the user: A total cost of a sale. The amount that was paid by the customer. Ensure that your output is grammatically correct. If the customer does not provide adequate payment, you should print the following statement, the program should end. Did not receive enough cash from the customer.…arrow_forward5. A prime number is a number that is only evenly divisible by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can only be evenly divided by 1 and 5. The number 6, how- ever, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6. Write a Boolean function named is_prime which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false otherwise. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to enter a number then displays a message indicating whether the number is prime. 6. In another program, use the function you wrote in question 5 to print the prime numbers between 1 and 100 using for loop.arrow_forwardQUESTION 5 This is a MULTIPLE ANSWER question, which means you are able to select one or more answers as being correct. Note that this does not necessarily mean that there are multiple correct answers. In any case, select all the answers you believe are correct. (NB: There are no part marks awarded for multiple answer questions.) Consider the following Python code, where the variables level and threshold have integer values: alarm = 3 if level = threshold: if level < 100: alarm = 1 alarm = 2 What initial values for variables level and threshold guarantee that variable alarm ends up with the value of 2 after the code has executed? When level is 200 and threshold is 99 When level is 4 and threshold is 5 ☐ When level is 200 and threshold is 100 When level is 400 and threshold is 300 When level is 5 and threshold is 4 When level is 3 and threshold is 4 When level is 1 and threshold is 2 O When level is 10 and threshold is 10arrow_forward
- In CORAL LANGUAGE please and thank you! Summary: Given integer values for red, green, and blue, subtract the gray from each value. Computers represent color by combining the sub-colors red, green, and blue (rgb). Each sub-color's value can range from 0 to 255. Thus (255, 0, 0) is bright red, (130, 0, 130) is a medium purple, (0, 0, 0) is black, (255, 255, 255) is white, and (40, 40, 40) is a dark gray. (130, 50, 130) is a faded purple, due to the (50, 50, 50) gray part. (In other words, equal amounts of red, green, blue yield gray). Given values for red, green, and blue, remove the gray part. Ex: If the input is: 130 50 130 the output is: 80 0 80 Hint: Find the smallest value, and then subtract it from all three values, thus removing the gray.arrow_forwardA Fibonacci Number sequence is the series of numbers: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ...

By definition, the function returns 0 for n=1, and returns 1 for n = 2. For the subsequence number: nth = (n - 2)th + (n - 1)th You need to verify the input n > 0.
