Question
PYTHON!!!
Modify the guessing-game program so that the user thinks of a number that the computer must guess.
- The computer must make no more than the minimum number of guesses, and it must prevent the user from cheating by entering misleading hints.
- Use I'm out of guesses, and you cheated and Hooray, I've got it in X tries as your final output.
Results you should get:
number is 3
Hooray, I've got it in 3 tries
number is 11
Hooray, I've got it in 5 tries
I'm out of guesses, and you cheated
Last version of the guessing game:
# Modify the code below:
import random
smaller = int(input("Enter the smaller number: "))
larger = int(input("Enter the larger number: "))
myNumber = random.randint(smaller, larger)
count = 0
while True:
count += 1
userNumber = int(input("Enter your guess: "))
if userNumber < myNumber:
print("Too small")
elif userNumber > myNumber:
print("Too large")
else:
print("You've got it in", count, "tries!")
break

- Congrats! You work for Zillow now. Your first task is to write an algorithm that recommends apartments based on a user’s preferences. Zillow offers the following three properties for rent: Apartment A – 600 square feet, pets allowed, $1400/month Apartment B – 800 square feet, no pets, $1600/month Apartment C – 1000 square feet, pets allowed, $1800/month Write an algorithm for a program that does the following: Prompt the user for the minimum square footage they will accept, how many pets they have, and the maximum price they’d pay per month, and then calculate and output the apartments that match their preferences. If there is no apartment that matches their preferences, print out "No matches, sorry!". Make sure the inputs are valid--negative square footages, prices, and pet numbers don’t make sense!arrow_forwardPython Algorithms Part 1 – Binary SearchLet's play a little game to give you an idea of how different algorithms for the same problem can have wildly different efficiencies. If I choose an integer from 1 to 16 and ask you to guess what the number is, you can keep guessing numbers until you hit on it. When you guess wrong, I tell you whether you are too high or too low. Once you've guessed the number, think about the technique you used to decide each of your next guesses.If you guessed 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, and so on, until you guessed the right number, you used an approach called “linear search,” meaning you guessed the numbers serially and sequentially, as if they were lined up in a row. This is definitely one way to find the mystery number, but it could require as many as 16 guesses. However, you could get lucky, if the number was 1, you’d only need 1 guess. Using a linear search process, on average, you'd need 8 guesses.There is an approach that is more efficient than just…arrow_forwardA digraph, G, is strongly connected, if each cycle in G has even length.

- On Thursday, November 4, 2021, Big Man Games wrote: Computer programs are great at computing mathematical formulas. Once the formula is properly encoded you can use the code as much as you want without reprogramming it and you can share it with non-programmers without any trouble. This lab is an example of such a formula. Once you program it you won’t have to worry about the area of a circle again. Write and test a program that computes the area of a circle. This program should request a number representing a radius as input from the user. Use the formula 3.14 × radius2 to compute the area. Tip: There are a couple of ways to code an exponent. Look in the Operators unit for help (and you can’t use an x for multiplication). Tip: You will need to use the float data type to compute the remainder. The output should explain the results. Don’t just print a number. Tip: For your print statement you will need to use the comma, “,”, or plus, “+” symbols to stitch your output together.

It uses depth readings to determine whether to sound an alarm. For our purposes, the fish-finder will decide that a fish is swimming past if:there are four consecutive depth readings which form a strictly increasing sequence (such as 3 4 7 9) (which we will call "Fish Rising"), orthere are four consecutive depth readings which form a strictly decreasing sequence (such as 9 6 5 2) (which we will call "Fish Diving"), orthere are four consecutive depth readings which are identical (which we will call "Constant Depth").All other readings will be considered random noise or debris, which we will call "No Fish."Create a Python program called "fishfinder_firstname_lastname" that takes 1 input of string of 4 numbers separated with comma. Your program must display "Fish Rising", "Fish Diving.", "Fish At Constant Depth" or "No Fish".Example:30,10,20,20 Must display No…arrow_forwardHow does data binding contribute to the overall user experience in software applications?arrow_forward
- Java Programming: The program will figure out a number chosen by a user. Ask user to think of a number from 1 to 100. The program will make guesses and the user will tell the program to guess higher (h) or lower (l). Sample run of the program might look like below : Guess a number from 1 to 100. (here, the user is thinking of 81) Is it 50? (h/l/c): h Is it 75? (h/l/c): h Is it 88? (h/l/c): l Is it 81? (h/l/c): c Great! Do you want to play again? (y/n): y Guess a number from 1 to 100. (here the user is thinking 37) Is it 50? (h/l/c): l Is it 25? (h/l/c): h Is it 37? (h/l/c): c Great! Do you want to play again? (y/n): n our program should implement the binary search algorithm. Every time the program makes a guess it should guess the midpoint of the remaining possible values. Consider the first example above, in which the user has chosen the number 81: On the first guess, the possible values are 1 to 100. The midpoint is 50. The user responds by saying “higher” On the second…arrow_forwardHelp me debug this exercise using Javaarrow_forwardUsing introduction to Python You have been asked to write an application that automatically grades a quiz. The quiz has 15 multiple-choice questions. The correct answers are: 1.A, 2.C, 3.A, 4.B, 5.B, 6.D, 7.D, 8.A, 9.C, 10.A, 11.B, 12.C, 13.D, 14.C, 15.B The program will start by creating a list holding the quiz answers key shown above. It will then prompt the user for the student name and their answers file and read them into a separate list. It will finally compare the key vs. answers lists to calculate & display: Number of correct answersNumber of incorrect answersQuestions incorrectly answered.Whether the student has passed or failed the quizA student must correctly answer 11 out of 15 questions to pass.The user can grade as many students as they wish.
