Chapter 2, Problem 22RE
The following pseudocode describes how to obtain the name of a day, given the day number (0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday, and so on.)
Declare a string called names containing "Sun MonTueWedThuFriSat".
Compute the starting position as 3 x the day number.
Extract the substring of names at the starting position with length 3.
Check this pseudocode, using the day number 4. Draw a diagram of the string that is being computed, similar to Figure 3.

Make a 3x3 user-based sudoku grid in C language where the user can insert 3 numbers based on the rows and columns from 1-9. Let 0 be the starting number that can be changed to any number that the user wants. After the user inputs the 3 numbers, reveal the rest of the 6 numbers in the grid.
A string is a palindrome if it reads the same from front to back as it does from back to front (e.g. "kayak", "rotator" and "noon" are palindromes). When determining whether an alphanumeric string is a palindrome, we often ignore spaces, punctuation and case in the string (e.g. "A man, a plan, a canal --Panama!" is also considered a palindrome).
Write a complete C program to read a string, echo it to the screen, determine whether it is a palindrome, and write a message indicating whether it is or isn't.
Your main function should prompt for the string, read the string, print it, call the clean function (to remove all spaces, punctuation, and turn uppercase letters into lowercase letters), print the new string, then call the reverse function (to place the characters into reverse order) and print the new string resulting. In the final step, you will compare the result of the reverse function with the original string and print a message if the string is a palindrome or not.
The clean…
Determine whether a string is a palindrome
A palindrome is a string of characters that reads the same from right to left as it does from left to right, regardless of punctuation and spaces. Some famous English palindromes include the following “Madam, I’m Adam”, and “Never odd or even”. Of course, a simpler example would be the world “radar”.The specifications for this assignment are:
Write and test a non-recursive solution in Java that determines whether a string is a palindrome
•Your program should consist of at least two methods: (1) the main method (2) the method which performs the task of determining whether the specified string is a palindrome. You should name this method isPalindrome. You should name the class that contains your “main” method and the isPalindrome method FindPalindrome.
•You must use a Stack and a Queue in your solution:Make sure to Write your own Stack and Queue based on the Vector in the Java API and use those in your solution. You should name those classes…

- Read in a word and check whether that word is a palindrome or not. A palindrome is a string that is spelled the same forward and backward.arrow_forwardPalindromes - “A palindrome” is a string that reads the same from both directions. For example: the word "mom" is a palindrome. Also, the string "Murder for a jar of red rum" is a palindrome. - So, you need to implement a Boolean function that takes as input a string and its return is true (1) in case the string is a palindrome and false (0) otherwise. - There are many ways to detect if a phrase is a palindrome. The method that you will implement in this task is by using two stacks. This works as follows. Push the left half of the characters to one stack (from left to right) and push the second half of the characters (from right to left) to another stack. Pop from both stacks and return false if at any time the two popped characters are different. Otherwise, you return true after comparing all the elements. Phrases of odd length have to be treated by skipping the middle element like the word "mom", your halves are "m" and "m". - Hint: (without using STL)arrow_forwardWrite a program that reads a string and checks the longest substring starting with "a" and ending with "z" included in it. Note that, the substring cannot contain another a or another z in it. For example: Ifs="bcd bbccdd badefgze tabdz", the longest substring is: 6arrow_forward
