Chapter 1, Problem 1PP
You want to decide whether you should drive your car to work or take the train. You know the one-way distance from your home to your place of work, and the fuel efficiency of your car (in miles per gallon). You also know the one-way price of a train ticket. You assume the cost of gas at $4 per gallon, and car maintenance at 5 cents per mile. Write an

The manager of Mama Calari’s Pizza Palace wants a program that calculates and displays the number of pizza slices into which a circular pizza can be divided. The manager will enter the radius of the entire pizza. For this exercise, use 14.13 as the area of a pizza slice, and use 3.14 as the value of pi. Desk-check your solution’s algorithm using 10 as the pizza’s radius; then desk-check it using 8. (Hint: For the first desk-check, the number of pizza slices should be a little over 22.)

- Jerry Feingold wants a program that will help him calculate the amount to tip a waiter at a restaurant. The program should subtract any liquor charge from the total bill and then calculate the tip (using a percentage) on the remainder. Finally, the program should display the tip on the screen. Desk-check your solution’s algorithm using $85 as the total bill, $20 as the liquor charge, and 20% as the tip percentage. Then desk-check it using $35 as the total bill, $0 as the liquor charge, and 15% as the tip percentage.arrow_forwardWrite the algorithm and its equivalent Python program to score the “paper-rock-scissor” game. Each of two users type in ‘P’, ‘R’ or ‘S’, and the program announces the winner as well as the basis for determining the winner: “paper covers rock”, “rock breaks scissors”, ”scissor cuts paper”, or “nobody wins”. Be sure to allow the users to use lower as well as uppercase letters.arrow_forwardMax Jones belongs to a CD (compact disc) club that allows him to buy CDs at a much lower price than his local music store charges. He wants to know how much he saves by buying all of his CDs through the club rather than through the music store. The output is the savings. The input is the number of CDs purchased, the club CD price, and thestore CD price. The algorithm should use two processing items: one for the cost of buying the CDs through the club, and the other for the cost of buying the CDs through the store. Write the algorithm using pseudocode.arrow_forward
- We would like to find the minimum number of steps required to get 0 from any number, when you can only subtract a digit present in that number in a single step. For example, if you are given 25. Then you can either subtract 2 or 5 from 25. Let's subtract 5 then we will get 20. Then we can subtract 2 and get 18 and so on. The minimum number of steps to get from 25 to 0 is shown below: 25→20→18→10→9→0. Now you need to write a DP program to find the minimum number of steps to solve the problem for any input. Input range will be from 0 to 999.

- Your team was asked to program a self-driving car that reaches its destination with minimum travel time. Write an algorithm for this car to choose from two possible road trips. You will calculate the travel time of each trip based on the car current speed and the distance to the target destination. Assume that both distances and car speed are given.

- Your goal is to guess a secret integer between 1 and N. You repeatedly guess integers between 1 and N. After each guess you learn if your guess equals thesecret integer (and the game stops). Otherwise, you learn if the guess is hotter (closer to)or colder (farther from) the secret number than your previous guess. Design an algorithm that finds the secret number in at most ~2 lg N guesses. Then design an algorithmthat finds the secret number in at most ~ 1 lg N guesses.arrow_forwardGiven two variables A and B, with integer values, write an algorithm that changes the values of the variables, without creating a new variable.ex: A = 3, B = 5 -> A = 5, b = 3)arrow_forwardIn a scheduling program, we want to check whether two appointments overlap. For simplicity, appointments start at a full hour, and we use military time (with hours 0–24). The following pseudocode describes an algorithm that determines whether the appointment with start time start1 and end time end1 overlaps with the appointment with start time start2 and end time end2.If start1 > start2s = start1Elses = start2If end1 < end2e = endl Elsee = end2 If s < eThe appointments overlap.Else The appointments don’t overlap.Trace this algorithm with an appointment from 10–12 and one from 11–13, then with an appointment from 10–11 and one from 12–13.arrow_forward
