Estimated Completion Time: 2 minutes You are now working for Prof. Midas on a research project. You are given this piece of code to review which is intended to be a better and faster implementation of a function that checks whether a given key is in a dictionary (i.e., key lookup). You have to present your findings to Prof. Midas. Select all the findings which you will NOT present (i.e., select all answers which are FALSE). def key_in_dict(d, k): for item in d: if k -- item: return True return False This code would always be slower than the builtin key lookup Python provides. O A key lookup in a dictionary in Python is generally faster than determining whether a value is in a list. This code is way faster and will be included in the next version of Python (version 4.1). The code is incorrect from a functional perspective, the True and False should be switched. This code could be replaced with one line: return k in d The code is correct and would always perform faster than the builtin key lookup provided by Python.

Interesting, intersecting def squares_intersect(s1, s2): A square on the two-dimensional plane can be defined as a tuple (x, y, r) where (x, y) are the coordinates of its bottom left corner and r is the length of the side of the square. Given two squares as tuples (x1, y1, r1) and (x2, y2, r2), this function should determine whether these two squares intersect, that is, their areas have at least one point in common, even if that one point is merely the shared corner point when these two squares are placed kitty corner. This function should not contain any loops or list comprehensions of any kind, but should compute the result using only integer comparisons and conditional statements. This problem showcases an idea that comes up with some problems of this nature; it is actually far easier to determine that the two squares do not intersect, and negate that answer. Two squares do not intersect if one of them ends in the horizontal direction before the other one begins, or if the same…
Creating Functions Who's Return Shouldn't Be IgnoredThe Problem: Some functions return a value that never should be ignored. For example, there is no reason that anyone would want to call malloc and ignore the results. Is there any way to force people to use the return value of a function?
(This if for mindtap on cengage but if not possible, you can use dev c++ 5.11) Consider the provided function main in main.cpp: Write the definition of the function inputArray that prompts the user to input 20 numbers and stores the numbers into alpha. Write the definition of the function doubleArray that initializes the elements of beta to two times the corresponding elements in alpha. Make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha. Write the definition of the function copyAlphaBeta that stores alpha into the first five rows of matrix and beta into the last five rows of matrix. Make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha and beta. Write the definition of the function printArray that prints any one-dimensional array of type int. Print 15 elements per line. Write a C++ program that tests the function main and the functions discussed in the parts above. (Add additional functions, such as printing a two-dimensional array,…

For this c++ hw 1) Make a function that reads in 2 integers from the user. (call it Get2Ints) 2) Make a function that swaps 2 integers (call it swap) 3) Make a function swapAndMult that takes two ints as parameters, and one more int parameter which will be a multiplier swapAndMult should take the two parameters and multiply them by the multiplier. The parameters should return from the function with new values. swapAndMult should NOT print out the values. 4) Make a function that prints 2 integers. Call it Print2Ints Main function should: a) declare two integers and a multiplier b) read 2 integers from the user (use your function) c) print the values of the integers (use the function) d) swap the integers e) print the values of the integers f) read an additional integer (the multplier) from the user g) print the multiplier from the user (sometimes called 'echoing the input') h) call swapAndMult i) print the values of the integers
For this assignment you will be replicating the game of Roshambo (aka rock, paper, scissors). Please answer both parts a and b of the following question below. Show the R code in your answer and annotate all parts of the code. a.) First, you need to come up with a strategy to win the game. Write a function in R that takes in a vector of past plays for your opponent (each play should be represented as "R", "P", or "S") and outputs the next move ("R", "P", or "S"). Your strategy should at least depend on the last two moves used, but you should return a random move if there is not enough past history to use the strategy. b.) Now, play your strategy against a random player who uses rock, paper, or scissors with 1/3 probability each. Who wins the most rounds after 100 rounds of play? Write a function in R.
Computer Science For each of the obfuscated functions below, state what it does and, in no more than three sentences, explain how it works. Assume that any requisite libraries have been included (elsewhere). You’re welcome to copy/paste the code into VS Code in order to style and experiment with it. int f(float x){return(int)(x+0.5);} int f(char *s){char*t=s;while(*t!='\0'){t++;}return t-s;}

Exercise 5 The greatest common divisor (GCD) of a and b is the largest number that divides both of them with no remainder. One way to find the GCD of two numbers is based on the observation that if r is the remainder when a is divided by b, then gcd(a, b) = gcd(b, r). As a base case, we can use gcd(a, 0) = a. Write a function called gcd that takes parameters a and b and returns their greatest common divisor.

You are tasked with writing a small part of a museum's ticketing system. The museum calculates ticket prices using the following rules: $20.00 per admission. Children under 15 get a 50% discount. Seniors (60 years and older) get a 25% discount. Write a Python function that takes a list of customers' ages and returns the total cost for the group. Your function must match the docstring below. You do not need to include the docstring in your solution. '''Function -- get_ticket_costCalculates the cost of museum admission for a group.Parameter:group_ages -- A list of integers representing customer ages.Returns:The total cost for the group, a float. The return value is not rounded.''' Example get_ticket_cost([10, 39, 40]) returns 50.0
