Credit Card Number Check. The last digit of a credit card number is the check digit, which protects against transcription errors such as an error in a single digit or switching two digits. The following method is used to verify actual credit card numbers but, for simplicity, we will describe it for numbers with 8 digits instead of 16:
- Starting from the rightmost digit, form the sum of every other digit. For example, if the credit card number is 4358 9795, then you form the sum 5 + 7 + 8 + 3 = 23.
- Double each of the digits that were not included in the preceding step. Add all digits of the resulting numbers. For example, with the number given above, doubling the digits, starting with the next-to-last one, yields 18 18 10 8. Adding all digits in these values yields 1 + 8 + 1 + 8 + 1 + 0 + 8 = 27.
- Add the sums of the two preceding steps. If the last digit of the result is 0, the number is valid. In our case, 23 + 27 = 50, so the number is valid.

The program gets the name of the employee, number of hours worked and rate per hour. It computes the salary by multiplying the number of hours worked with rate per hour.

Every ingredient has its beauty value that does not depend on its taste, but on the way it looks, which is expressed as a positive integer. To order a dish, the customer asks Ramsay to use all the ingredients from L to R (L is strictly less than R). Ramsay knows that the dish will be tasty and not only beautiful if the sum of its ingredients' beauty values is divisible by K. Ramsay does not want to use all the ingredients, so he always excludes one of them. Which one? - The least beautiful one! (in other words - which has the minimal beauty value). Now he wonders - how many segments (L,R) are there such that the sum of their beauty values will be divisible by K after excluding the least beautiful ingredient. Your assignment is to develop a python code that prints the answer for the problem. Sample test case are given below:Input:3 51 2 3Output:1arrow_forwardInput a number value for LEFT, RIGHT and X. If LEFT is greater than RIGHT, display the first ten numbers in descending order starting from X. If RIGHT is greater than LEFT display the first ten numbers in ascending order starting from X. If RIGHT and LEFT are equal, display “Equal Value” Use the UML diagram below as a guide. The following methods are as follows. setValues(int,int,int) – accepts the value for X, LEFT and RIGHT as parameters and returns the following: 0 if LEFT and RIGHT are equal 1 if LEFT is greater than RIGHT 2 if RIGHT is greater than LEFT. displayCount(int) – accepts the integer that represents the status of RIGHT and LEFT, and then display the expected result.arrow_forwardPYTHON PROGRAMMING Reza Enterprises sells tickets for buses, tours, and other travel services. Because Reza frequently mistypes long ticket numbers, Reza Enterprises has asked his students to write an application that shows if a ticket is invalid. Your application/program tells the ticket agent to enter a six-digit ticket number. Ticket numbers are designed so that if you lose the last digit of the number, then divide by 7, the remainder of the division is exactly the same to the last dropped digit. This process is shown below: Step 1: Enter the ticket number; for example 123454 Step 2: Remove the last digit, leaving 12345 Step 3: Determine the remainder when the ticket number from step 2 is divided by 7. In this case, 12345 divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 4. Step 4: Display a message to the ticket agent indicating whether the ticket number is valid or not. If the ticket number is valid, save the number to a .txt file called “tickets.txt” and continue to loop your program…arrow_forwardBrute force equation solver this is python program. Numerous engineering and scientific applications require finding solutions to a set of equations. Ex: 8x + 7y = 38 and 3x - 5y = -1 have a solution x = 3, y = 2. Given integer coefficients of two linear equations with variables x and y, use brute force to find an integer solution for x and y in the range -10 to 10. Ex: If the input is: 8 7 38 3 -5 -1 Then the output is: 3 2 Use this brute force approach: For every value of x from -10 to 10 For every value of y from -10 to 10 Check if the current x and y satisfy both equations. If so, output the solution, and finish. Ex: If no solution is found, output: No solution You can assume the two equations have no more than one solution. Note: Elegant mathematical techniques exist to solve such linear equations. However, for other kinds of equations or situations, brute force can be handy.

Program should print all nice numbers in the given range that doesn't contain digit 'm'. The number is nice if its every digit is larger than the sum of digits which are on the right side of that digit. For example 741 is a nice number since 4> 1, and 7> 4+1. with digit m=2.

The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters squared. Calculate a persons Body Mass index using their weight in pounds. This means you must first convert pounds to kilograms (kg) then apply the formula above. In converting pounds to kg, 1 pound = 0.453592 kg. So to convert pounds to kg, either multiply the pound value by 0.45359237 or divide by 2.2046226218. Then you must convert their height in inches to meters. The length in meters is equal to the inches multiplied by 0.0254. Write a program that accepts a users height as an integer in inches and their weight in pounds. Convert those inputs to their metric equivalents outlined above and determine their body mass index. Display what the conversions from and to their metric equivalents are.
