- Design a program that simulates the slot machine game. When the program starts, it should greet user and then start the game. For each game, the program asks user for the bet amount, and then randomly picks three words/images. If all the three words/images are same, user won three times of the bet amount, if any two of them are same, user won twice of the bet amount, otherwise, user won 0. The program should allow user to play as many games as wanted at one run. The program should display number of games user played, total amount bet and won at the end the program. It should also display each game's information, including game number, bet amount, the three words/images, and won amount. Here is the list of words you may use: Cherries, Oranges, Plums, Bells, Melons, and Bars. i need to do this in raptor flowchartarrow_forwardCan u solve this ?arrow_forward1. Write a pyrhon program that prints out a classic hangman stick figure. The program should ask the user to enter a number from 1-6 and the corresponding hangman should be printed. The value the user inputs corresponds to the number of incorrect guesses in a real hangman game and so the completeness of the hangman will correspond to the number of ‘incorrect guesses’ inputted by the user (e.g., if the user enters 1, then only the head of the hangman will be printed; full example below). Example:Enter a number from 1-6: 1O Enter a number from 1-6: 2O|Enter a number from 1-6: 3O\||Enter a number from 1-6: 4O\|/|Enter a number from 1-6: 5O\|/|/Enter a number from 1-6: 6O\|/|/ \ 2. Modify your program from problem 1 so that the user input is checked to be a validsingle digit (1-6) before printing the corresponding hangman. If the input is not valid, theninstead of a hangman the following message should be printed “Invalid input: you must enter asingle number from 1-6.” Example:Enter a…arrow_forward

That means the airline has booked too many passengers hoping some of them would not show up on time, but passengers are on board and the aircraft doesn't have enough seats available for all these passengers. Your program chooses the passenger who must leave the flight. Passengers will be ranked based on the fare they have paid for booking (a double number called fare), and their number of loyalty points (an integer number called points). Fare and points are equally important, that means, in order to decide the position of each passenger in the list, fare and points each have 50% importance. A Person with minimum priority (combination of fare and points) will leave the flight. You need to define a class called Passenger with these member variables: passenger's name • fare points. Passenger class must have 3 accessors, 3 mutators, a constructor with three…arrow_forward
- Assume you are playing a card game using a standard 52-card deck. You are dealt a hand of cards that are all the same suit, hearts. You are dealt first a 5, then a 3, then 8, and finally 4. You first grab the 8. Next you grab the 5 and place it in front of the 8. Then you take the 4 and place it in front of the 5. Finally, you take the 3 and place it in front of the 4.

The game of Pig The game of Pig is a dice game with simple rules: Two players race to reach 100 points. Each turn, a player repeatedly rolls a die until either a 1 ("pig") is rolled or the player holds and scores the sum of the rolls (i.e. the turn total). At any time during a player's turn, the player is faced with two decisions: roll - if the player rolls 1: the player scores nothing and it becomes the opponents turn. 2 - 6: the number is added to the player's turn total and the player's turn continues. hold - The turn total is added to the player's score and it becomes the opponent's turn. This game is a game of probability. Players can use their knowledge of probabilities to make an educated game decision. Assignment specifications Hold-at-20 means that the player will choose to roll continually roll a die until they reach 20 or more or until they are forced to quit because they rolled a pig.
