Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 4PP
Write a
The user is asked how many cards she or he has, and the user responds with one of the integers 2, 3, 4, or 5. The user is then asked for the card values. Card values are 2 through 10, jack, queen, king, and ace. A good way to handle input is to use the type char so that the card input 2, for example, is read as the character '2', rather than as the number 2. Input the values 2 through 9 as the characters '2' through '9'. Input the values 10, jack, queen, king, and ace as the characters 't', 'j', 'q', 'k', and 'a'. (Of course, the user does not type in the single quotes.) Be sure to allow upper- as well as lowercase letters as input.
After reading in the values, the program should convert them from character values to numeric card scores, taking special care for aces. The output is either a number between 2 and 21 (inclusive) or the word Busted. You are likely to have one or more long multiway branches that use a switch statement or nested if-else statement. Your program should include a loop that lets the user repeat this calculation until the user says she or he is done.

Write 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.
Otherwise,…

- Nim is a two-player game played with several piles of stones. You can use as many piles and as many stones in each pile as you want, but in order to better understand the game, we'll start off with just a few small piles of stones (see figure 1 below). Pile 1 Pile 1 Pile 2 The two players take turns removing stones from the game. On each turn, the player removing stones can only take stones from one pile, but they can remove as many stones from that pile as they want (please note, a player must remove atleast 1 stone from a pile during his/her turn). If they want, they can even remove the entire pile from the game! The winner is the player who removes the final stone (avoid taking the last stone - see figure 2 below). Pile 2 Pile 3 Pile 3 Let's say its Max (player 1) turn to play. Then Max can win by simply removing a stone from Pile 2 or Pile 3 Draw a game tree (upto depth level 2) for the given version of the Nim game.

In this case, there will be one human player and one computer player. Each player’s goal is to get 100 points rolled on a normal six-sided die first. Each turn consists of rolling the die repeatedly until you decide to stop or until you roll a 1. For each roll: • If you roll a 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 –you will add the amount rolled to your score.• If you roll a 1 – your turn ends and you receive zero points for that entire turn (You will keep whatever points you had before your turn started)• If you decide to stop rolling at any point in your turn, your points for that turn are then added to the overall score. The overall score is then safe from future rolls.Use functions to break apart the code into logical portionsarrow_forwardWrite a program that simulates picking a card from a deckof 52 cards.

- The game of "23" is a two-player game that begins with a pile of 23 toothpicks. Players take turns, withdrawing either 1, 2 or 3 toothpicks at a time. The player to withdraw the last toothpick loses the game. Write a human vs. computer program that plays "23". The human should always move first. When it is the computer's turn it should play according to the following rules: If there are more than 7 toothpicks left, then the computer should withdraw a random number of toothpicks (from 1 to 3). Use the rand() function, as demonstrated in class to produce this number.. If there are 2, 3 or 4 toothpicks left, then the computer should withdraw enough toothpicks to leave 1. If there is 1 toothpick left, then the computer has to take it and loses. When the human player enters the number of toothpicks to withdraw, the program should perform input validation. Make sure that the entered number is between 1 and 3 (inclusive) and that the player is not trying to withdraw more toothpicks…arrow_forward1. In the game of Monopoly, a pair of dice are rolled to move a player's piece around the board. If a double is rolled (the dice show the same number), the player receives another roll of the dice. If a double is rolled a second time, a third roll of the dice is received. If a double is rolled on the third occasion, the player forfeits their turn (and goes to Jail). Write a program which simulates two players having 50 turns each (a turn however many dice rolls a player has in a row before it's the other player's turn) and determines: a) the total number of spaces moved by each player; and b) how many times a player rolls a double which results in movement of a piece. Use the randi function. For fun, incorporate the rule that a player cannot leave Jail (cannot move) unless they either roll a double or three turns have passed without rolling a double.arrow_forwardWrite a program that lets the user play the game of Rock, Paper, Scissors against the computer. The program should work as follows:1. When the program begins, a random number in the range of 1 through 3 is generated. If the number is 1, then the computer has chosen rock. If the number is 2, then the computer has chosen paper. If the number is 3, then the computer has chosen scissors. (Don’tdisplay the computer’s choice yet.)2. The user enters his or her choice of “rock,” “paper,” or “scissors” at the keyboard.3. The computer’s choice is displayed.4. A winner is selected according to the following rules:• If one player chooses rock and the other player chooses scissors, then rock wins. (Therock smashes the scissors.)• If one player chooses scissors and the other player chooses paper, then scissors wins.(Scissors cuts paper.)• If one player chooses paper and the other player chooses rock, then paper wins.

- In python, a) In the Hi-Lo game, the player begins with a score of 1000. The player is prompted for the number of points to risk and a second prompt asks the player to choose either High or Low. The player’s choice of either High or Low is compared to a random number between 1 and 13, inclusive. If the number is between 1 and 6 inclusive, then it is considered “low”. A number between 8 and 13 inclusive is “high”. The number 7 is neither high nor low, and the player loses the points at risk. If the player had guessed correctly, the points at risk are doubled and added to the total points. For a wrong choice, the player loses the points at risk. Create a HiLo application based on this specification. Application output should look similar to b) Modify the application to allow the player to continue until there are 0 points left. At the end of the game, display the number of guesses the user took before running out of points.arrow_forwardYou will implement a variant of the number guessing game we played in lecture. In this variant, you will ask the user to guess the price of a $42,500 car. Let's assume that the player knows the price of the car is rounded to the nearest $500. If a player's guess is not exactly correct, your program will tell them they are either too high or too low. The player will get as many guesses as they need to guess the price of the $42,500 car. They need to guess correctly to finish the game, but they will only win the game if they used 5 or fewer guesses. Here are two examples of how the program should work for both cases: Guess the price and win the prize! Enter your guess:50000 Too high! Enter your guess:40000 Too low! Enter your guess:45000 Too high! Enter your guess: 42500 You won the car! Guess the price and win the prize! Enter your guess:46000 Too high! Enter your guess:45000 Too high! Enter your guess: 44000 Too high! Enter your guess: 43000 Too high! Enter your guess:4 Too low! :…arrow_forwardIt is given twelve balls of identical weight with the exception of one that is either heavier or lighter. Additionally, it is equipped with a dual-pan balance. Utilization of the balance in each instance You may place any number of the 12 balls on the left pan and the same number on the right pan, and then press a button to begin weighing; there are three potential outcomes: the weights are equal, the balls on the left are heavier, or the balls on the left are lighter. Create a technique for determining which ball is the odd one out and whether it is heavier or lighter than the others using the balance in the fewest feasible instances. Solve the issue of weighing 39 balls, one of which is known to be odd.arrow_forward
- Coin Exchange: Write a program that will determine how many coins of each denomination (50kr, 25kr, 10kr, Skr, and 1kr) are required to make up a given amount of change. For example, to make 57kr we could use 1 x 50kr, 1 x 5kr, and 2 x 1kr., It should be obvious that many combinations of coins are possible. For example, in the example above, we could make up 57kr with: (57 x 1kr) or (2 x 25kr and 7 x 1kr). However, your program must use the smallest number of coins (10 points). Example program output: Enter amount: 40 40 Kr = 1 x 25Kr 1х 10Кr 1 x 5Krarrow_forwardGiven a list of scores and a passing score, you are asked to find out the average score and the number of scores which are equal to or higher than the passing score. For examples, the list of scores is as follows: 46, 58, 56, 59, 89, 93, 77, 98, 100, 64 If the passing score is 60, then the answers should be 74 and 6. If the passing score is 55, then the answers should be 74 and 9. Implement the above task using MIPS in QtSpim. Initialize the array of scores in memory using any integer values between 0 and 100. The passing score should be obtained from user’s input and the answer must be printed out. See the following screen snapshot for reference.arrow_forwardJava Programming: Write a program that reads five integer values from the user, then analyzes them as if they were a hand of cards. When your program runs it might look like this (user input is in orange for clarity): Enter five numeric cards, no face cards. Use 2 - 9. Card 1: 8 Card 2: 7 Card 3: 8 Card 4: 2 Card 5: 9 Pair!
