Question
Chapter 18.7, Problem 18.7.1CP
Program Plan Intro
Towers of Hanoi:
This is a type of program which is difficult to solve. It gets easier to solve using recursion. The problem includes moving a particular number of disks of different sizes from one tower to another. It has certain rules in moving the disks they are:
- The towers are labeled “A”, “B”, and “C”. The disks are labeled as 1, 2, 3, and so on.
- The bigger disk should not be on the top of smaller disk.
- Initially all the disks are placed on tower A.
- Only one disk can be moved at a time.
The aim of this problem is to move all the disks from tower A to tower B without violating the above rules.

Which one of a, b, c, d correct ?
(A) How many variables in total are referenced by the encode method? (B) How many data types
are used in this method? (C) in how many ways can the parameter list for the count method be organized?
Select the option that correctly answers questions A, B and C.
(A) 7, (B) 2, (C) 2
(A) 5, (B) 2, (C) 1
(A) 7, (B) 2, (C) 1

The code given below represents a saveTransaction() method which is used to save data to a database from the Java program. Given the classes in the image as well as an image of the screen which will call the function, modify the given code so that it loops through the items again, this time as it loops through you are to insert the data into the salesdetails table, note that the SalesNumber from the AUTO-INCREMENT field from above is to be inserted here with each record being placed into the salesdetails table. Finally, as you loop through the items the product table must be update because as products are sold the onhand field in the products table must be updated. When multiple tables are to be updated with related data, you should wrap it into a DMBS transaction.
The schema for the database is also depicted.

- If a method given an ArrayList as a parameter calls a second method giving it the same ArrayList, and that second method deletes one of the elements, this will: (produce a non-deterministic result? trigger an error? have an effect? have no effect?) on the first ArrayList.
