Coupon collector is a classic statistic problem with many practical applications. The problem is to pick objects from a set of objects repeatedly and determine how many picks are needed for all the objects to be picked at least once. A variation of the problem is to pick cards from a shuffled deck of 52 cards repeatedly and find out how many picks are needed before you see one of each suit. Assume a picked card is placed back in the deck before picking another. Write a program to simulate the number of picks needed to get four cards from each suit and display the four cards picked (it is possible that a card may be picked twice).
Write a program that creates two rectangular shapes and then animates them. The two shapes should start on opposite ends of the screen and then move toward each other. When they meet in the middle of the screen, each shape reverses course and moves toward the edge of the screen. The two shapes keep oscillating and bouncing off of each other in the middle of the screen. The program terminates when the shapes meet each other in the middle for the tenth time.
Write a graphical program to trace a random walk (see previous two prob-lems) in two dimensions. In this simulation you should allow the step to
be taken in any direction. You can generate a random direction as an angleoff of the x axis.
angle = random() * 2 * math.pi

- Using Dart. Create a program that will play the “cows and bulls” game with the user. The game works like this: Randomly generate a 4-digit number. Ask the user to guess a 4-digit number. For every digit the user guessed correctly in the correct place, they have a “cow”. For every digit the user guessed correctly in the wrong place is a “bull.” Every time the user makes a guess, tell them how many “cows” and “bulls” they have. Once the user guesses the correct number, the game is over. Keep track of the number of guesses the user makes throughout the game and tell the user at the end.arrow_forwardIn this lab work, you will implement a coffee shop example. In this coffee shop, everything must progress as if it does in real life. It means that the program should ask a person for body temperature in Celsius, and grant or reject access to a coffee shop. When a customer orders a coffee, they have to choose a size such as Small, Medium, and Large then, depending on the order, the price has to change. The price also has to change depending on the type of coffee. For example, for coffees that are similar to espresso, you also need to take every shot of espresso into account. The actual prices of the coffees depend on your imagination however, they should be realistic. Some hints: • Focus on dividing your program into multiple functions. • You can also return double or integer types of values from your functions, so use them if you can. • Don't just code a function every possible type of, and try to make it generic as much as possible. • Be creative.

- Write a program that generates 50 random numbers such that the first number is between 1 and 2, the second is between 1 and 3, the third is between 1 and 4, . . . , and the last is between 1 and 51.arrow_forwardWrite a code in Java Programming Your task is to simulate a coffee shop using the observer pattern (do not use the deprecate one). The coffee shop serves two types of coffee: espresso and cappuccino. The shop has two baristas, EspressoBarista and CappuccinoBarista. EspressoBarista generates random espresso orders between 1 and 3 every 2 seconds, while CappuccinoBarista generates random cappuccino orders between 1 and 3 every 3 seconds. The UML design diagram is shown below.

Each number on the die is worth a certain number of points. If the person rolls a six, then that roll is worth 4 points. If the person rolls a five, then that roll is worth 3 points. If the person rolls a three, then that roll is worth 2 points. All the other rolls (four, two or one), that roll is worth 1 point. The rules of the game is that the player rolls the die five times, and adds them up. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 15, then the player gets a rating of excellent. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 12 but less than 15, then the player gets a rating of above average. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 7 but less than 12, then the player gets a rating of good. If the total adds up to a number less than 7, then the player gets a rating of poor. After the game is over, the program should ask the user if they want to play again. In…arrow_forward
