Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 32CRP
Suppose a lottery is based on correctly picking four integer values, each in the range from 1 to 50. Moreover, suppose that the jackpot grows so large that it becomes profitable to buy a separate lottery ticket for each possible combination. If it takes one second to buy a single ticket, how long would it take to buy one ticket for each combination? How would the time requirement change if the lottery required picking five numbers instead of four? What does this problem have to do with the material from this chapter?

There are N people numbered from 1 to N around a round table. Everyone has a different number in their hands between 1 and N. We start with the first person and count the number in his hand and ask the related person to leave the table. If the number in the card odd, we count clockwise. if it is even, we count counterclockwise. Ensure that all people leave the table. The first person to leave the table is the first person.
In the sample scenario, the first integer value in the table_in.txt file indicates the number of people around the table, it is 5. The value of the card in the first person’s hand is written on the next line, it is 3. The value of the second person’s card is written on the next line, it is 1.
In the table_out.txt file, print the order of people leaving the table.

Recall that to solve this puzzle,•move the top n −1 discs from the source to the scratch peg,•move disc n from the source to the destination peg, and•move the top n −1 discs from the scratch to the destination peg.The first step takes T (n −1) moves, the second step takes one move, andthe third step takes T (n −1) moves again. In other words,T (n) = 2T (n −1) + 1.This applies when n > 0. At zero, we have T (0) = 0, because with zerodiscs the start and final states are identical; there are no moves to make.Your task is to find a closed-form expression for T (n) (i.e., one that doesnot use recursion), and prove that it’s correct using induction.arrow_forwardCasinos have devised different automated mechanical methods for shuffling the cards.One such method divides the deck into to seven piles by placing each card randomlyeither on the top or at the bottom of one pile (i.e. each card has 14 possible placesto choose from).

To build such a house you at-least require 8 cards. To increase the level (or height) of that house, you would require four sides and a base for each level. Therefore, for the top level, you would require 8 cards and for each of the rest of the levels below you would require 5 extra cards. If you were asked to build level one only, you would require just 8 cards. Of course, the input can be zero; in that case, you do not build a house at all. Complete the recursive method below to calculate the number of cards required to build a ‘house of cards’ of specific height given by the parameter. public int hocBuilder (int height){ // TO DO } OR def hocBuilder(height):arrow_forward
