The template code defines a Time struct. Given main() that reads two Times and computes the difference between the two, complete the
following two functions:
main() provides ReadTime() to read input from a user and use the input to create a new Time by calling Create Time(). PrintTime() is
provided to output Time in 24 hour format (hh:mm:ss).
Ex: If the input is:

The Fibonacci sequence begins with 0 and then 1 follows. All subsequent values are the sum of the previous two, ex: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13.
Complete the fibonacci() function, which has an index n as parameter and returns the nth value in the sequence. Any negative index values
should return -1.
Ex: If the input is:
7
the output is:
fibonacci (7) is 13
Note: Use a for loop and DO NOT use recursion.

The capture of the students’ marks must be a sentinel-controlled mark that is below zero for either the continuous assessment (term) mark or the final mark. Use a sentinel-controlled loop that will exit when the user types in the word ’Done’ instead of a student’s name. For each mark, use a function: int validateData(string,int) that receives a message to be displayed to the user in case the mark is not acceptable, and also the captured mark. Marks can only be between 0 and 100. 5.2 The program should be menu driven, with the options: Capture Student Marks, Sort the Class List, Display the Class List, Exit. 5.3 Use any sort algorithm to sort the data such that the best student by Final Mark is at the top of the list. The Display option should display the values of the array whether sorted or not yet sorted, neatly formatting the columns of data.arrow_forwardWrite these in Pseudocode #1a – In pseudocode, write a call to a function that passes 1 Integer variable and 1 Integer array, and saves a Boolean value in return. #1b – In pseudocode, write the function that accepts 1 Integer and 1 Integer array and returns a Boolean.

Each red number is preceded by the letter r, each black number is preceded by the letter b and each white number is preceded by the letter w. The number 0 indicates the end of data. If a number is preceded by any character other than r, b or w, the number is ignored. For instance, if the input to the program is: r 23 b 15 b 11 w 17 c 13 r 19 b 0, then we have two red numbers, 23 and 19, two black numbers 15 and 11, and one white number, 17. The number 13 is ignored. (The terminating 0 is also a black number but it is not processed.) The program produces the following output: The sum of red numbers is 42The sum of black numbers is 26The sum of white numbers is 17 Assume that input is from the keyboard and is in the prescribed format.

- The Fibonacci sequence begins with O and then 1 follows. All subsequent values are the sum of the previous two, for example: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13. Complete the Fibonacci() function, which has an index n as a parameter and returns the nth value in the sequence. Any negative index values should return -1. Ex: If the input is: 7 the output is: Fibonacci (7) is 13 Note: Use a for loop and DO NOT use recursion. 1 #include NM in N 2 3 int Fibonacci(int n) { 4 /* Type your code here. */ 5} 6 7 int main(void) { 8 int startNum; 9 scanf("%d", &startNum); main.c 10 11 printf("Fibonacci (%d) is %d", startNum, Fibonacci (startNum)); return 0; 12 13 14arrow_forwardWrite a function, Decode() that can analyse a list of card numbers. The function is constructed as follows:The function receives the string list (as in Question 3.1) as parameter and returns no value to the calling statement.When this function executes the following should happen:Each card number in the list should be analysed in turn to extract the encoded information in the following format:0318241215528881: Was issued by Diner’s club in 2018. The card expires on 24/12. The card is linked to a Credit account with account number: 15528881.It may be assumed that any year (YY) refers to the years 2000+.The information for each card number must be stored in one string variable. The variable must then be sent to the WriteFile() function (see Question 3.3 below) so that the result can be saved. The process repeats until each card number in the list is sent to the WriteFile() function.arrow_forwardDefine a function named check_game_finished (encrypted_list) which takes a list of characters as a parameter. The function returns True if the game is over, and False otherwise. The game is over when there is no longer any "*" characters in the parameter list.
