Enhance Worked Example 4.1 to check that the credit card number is valid. A valid credit card number will yield a result divisible by 10 when you:
Form the sum of all digits. Add to that sum every second digit, starting with the second digit from the right. Then add the number of digits in the second step that are greater than four. The result should be divisible by 10.
For example, consider the number 4012 8888 8888 1881. The sum of all digits is 89. The sum of the colored digits is 46. There are five colored digits larger than four, so the result is 140. 140 is divisible by 10 so the card number is valid.

- Exercise III: Catalan numbers For n e N, denote by c, to be the number of ways to form a "mountain range" with n upstrokes (U) and n downstrokes (D) that all stay above a horizontal line. For instance: for n = 1, only UD is allowed, so c = 1; • for n = 2, only UUDD and UDUD are allowed, so c2 = 2. 1. Check that c3 = 5 by writing down or drawing all possible options. 2. Consider the power series +00 g(x) = 2 n=0 (by definition co = 1) called the generating function of the sequence (en). Justify that cn < 4" for each n, and deduce that the radius of convergence of g is at least 1/4. 3. It can be show that for r E (-1/4, 1/4), g(x) = 1+ xg(r)? and therefore 1- VI 4.x g(x) = 2.x Use this formula and the known power series of V1+ x to write the first terms of the power series expansion of g, in the form g(x) = co + c1x + c2x2 + C3x + c4x* + ·.. Show how you obtain a few terms, but you do not need to show all computations and you can use a calculator for fractions. Check that you recover co,…arrow_forwardQ3: Interplanetary Spaceflight Milan Tusk is the richest person in the universe. After devoting decades of his life to further our space exploration technologies, he’s finally ready to retire. Being a space enthusiast, the first thing he wants to do is visit n planets p1, p2, …, pn, in this order. He’s currently on planet p0. Milan knows that the distance between planets pi and pi + 1 (for 0 ≤ i < n) is d[i]light years. His spaceship uses 1 tonne of fossil fuels per light year. He starts with a full tank and can fill up his tank at any of the n planets (but he must not run out in between two planets). There’s a huge cost to set up the spaceship for refuelling. Due to financial constraints (he’s not THAT rich), he can fill up his tank at most ktimes. In order to save money and make his spaceship lighter, Milan is looking for the smallest possible fuel tank that enables him to complete his space travel and reach planet pn. What is the smallest tank capacity that enables him to do so?…arrow_forwardGiven a number n, identify and print which in the given set of numbers are factors of n. Should there be no factors listed in the set of numbers, print "I'm alone". For example, given the number 36 and the set of numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, 12. Only print the numbers which are factors of 36, which are 2, 3, 12. Input The first line contains the number n; The second line contains how many numbers there are in the set of numbers; The third line contains the set of numbers. INPUT: 36 5 2·3·5·7·12 Output The set of numbers that are factors of n separated by a new line in order of appearance. If there are none, print "I'm alone" OUTPUT: 2 3 12arrow_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_forwardThree numbersa. Write a program that reads three numbers and prints “all the same” if they are allthe same, “all different” if they are all different, and “neither” otherwise.b. Write a program that reads three numbers and prints “increasing” if they are inincreasing order, “decreasing” if they are in decreasing order, and “neither”otherwise. Here, “increasing” means “strictly increasing”, with each value largerthan its predecessor. The sequence 3 4 4 would not be considered increasing.c. Repeat part b. but before reading the numbers, ask the user whetherincreasing/decreasing should be “strict” or “lenient”. In lenient mode, thesequence 3 4 4 is increasing and the sequence 4 4 4 is both increasing anddecreasingarrow_forwardSummary When you borrow money to buy a house, a car, or for some other purposes, then you typically repay it by making periodic payments. Suppose that the loan amount is L, r is the interest rate per year, m is the number of payments in a year, and the loan is for t years. Suppose that i = (r / m) and r is in decimal. Then the periodic payment is (first image which R=....): You can also calculate the unpaid loan balance after making certain payments. For example, the unpaid balance after making k payments is (second image which L'=....) : where R is the periodic payment. (Note that if the payments are monthly, then m = 12.) Instructions Write a program that prompts the user to input the values of L, r, m, t, and k. The program then outputs the appropriate values. Your program must contain at least two functions, with appropriate parameters, to calculate the periodic payments and the unpaid balance after certain payments. Make the program menu driven and use a loop so that the…arrow_forward

(For example, 30 is such a number as it can bewritten as the product of 5 and 6 (30=5x6), which are two numbers in succession.) The user shouldspecify a maximum value and the program should print all said numbers smaller than or equal tothat value. The program should keep a count of how many numbers were printed and should output that count ,as well as the numbersarrow_forwardFind the numbers that can be expressed as the product of two nonnegative integers insuccession and print them in increasing order.

The equation is:V = nRT / PSince we only have used integer arithmetic, all numbers will be integer values with nodecimal points. The constant R is 8.314 and will be specified as (8314/1000). This givesthe same result. Implement the idea gas law program where the user is prompted for andenters values for n, T, and P, and V is calculated and printed out. Be careful toimplement an accurate version of this program. Your program should include a properand useful prompt for input, and print the results in a meaningful mannerarrow_forward

Customers can purchase a Write a complete program that asks the user input for the number of gift bags need to be purchased (an integer) and outputs the total price of the purchase. a) For example, if the customer buys 14 gift bags, the customer would be charged for 1 set of (12 bags) plus another 2 individual bags. The subtotal would be 1 (17.99) + 2 (1.75) = $21.49. b) Use a constant variable to set a fixed tax rate of 8.875. c) Display correct dollar values (2 decimal places, use cout precision).

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_forwardAssume that a, b, c are numbers.Return 'increasing' if they are in increasing order, 'decreasing' if they are in decreasing order, 'both' if they are both increasing and decreasing, and 'neither' otherwise.Here, 'increasing' means that each value is at least as largeas its predecessor.
