Chapter 3, Problem 15PP

This problem is based on a "Nifty Assignment" by Steve Wolfman (http://nifty. stanford.edu/2006/wolfman-pretid). Consider lists of numbers from real-life data sources-for example, a list containing the number of students enrolled in different course sections, the number of comments posted for different Facebook status up dates, the number of books in different library holdings, the number of votes per precinct, etc. It might seem like the leading digit of each number in the list could be 1-9 with an equally likely probability. However, Benford's Law states that the leading digit is 1 about 30% of the time and drops with larger digits. The leading digit is 9 only about 5% of the time.

Write a program that tests Benford's Law. Collect a list of at least 100 numbers from some real-life data source and enter them into a text file. Your program should loop through the list of numbers and count how many times 1 is the first digit, 2 is the first digit, etc. For each digit, output the percentage it appears as the first digit.

You are to create a solution for a Pharmaceutical company. Entities to be represented are: Drugs, Sales Representatives, Bills and Vouchers. • A Drug is characterized by its name (string), its price (int) and its manufacturer (a manufacturer ===> composition). A Manufacturer is characterized by his name (string) and the list of drugs they sell (array of drugs) => composition. • A Sales Representative (sometimes referred to as rep) is characterized by his/her name(string), the total amount sold (double), his/her salary (int). o Sales Representatives can be of two types (inheritance): Reps with a fixed income and a commission Reps with a commission only A Voucher is characterized by its number (int), a client name (a customer), and the quantity sold of each drug. All reps and vouchers and bills are payable. As such, students need to implement an interface called Payable and implement it in the aforementioned classes. 1. You need then to create GUI interfaces where the user can manage all…
