Fishing Game Simulation
For this assignment, you will write a
Here are some suggestions for the game’s design:
- Each round of the game is performed as an iteration of a loop that repeats as long as the player wants to fish for more items.
- At the beginning of each round, the program will ask the user whether he or she wants to continue fishing.
- The program simulates the rolling of a six-sided die (use the Die class that was demonstrated in this chapter).
- Each item that can be caught is represented by a number generated from the die. For example, 1 for “a huge fish,” 2 for “an old shoe,” 3 for “a little fish,” and so on.
- Each item the user catches is worth a different amount of points.
- The loop keeps a running total of the user’s fishing points.
- After the loop has finished, the total number of fishing points is displayed, along with a message that varies depending on the number of points earned.

- 9. Trivia Game In this programming exercise, you will create a simple trivia game for two players. The program will work like this: Starting with player 1, each player gets a turn at answering 5 trivia questions. (There should be a total of 10 questions.) When a question is displayed, 4 possible answers are also displayed. Only one of the answers is correct, and if the player selects the correct answer, he or she earns a point. After answers have been selected for all the questions, the program displays the number of points earned by each player and declares the player with the highest number of points the winner. To create this program, write a Question class to hold the data for a trivia question. The Question class should have attributes for the following data: A trivia question Possible answer 1 Possible answer 2 Possible answer 3 Possible answer 4 The number of the correct answer (1, 2, 3, or 4) The Question class also should have an appropriate _…arrow_forward9.

Here is how it works: • First, it is randomly determined if the user starts the game or the computer and this information is shown to the user. The player who starts always starts as "X". • The players (computer and the user) will then take turns in playing. The computer will choose a random empty spot on its turn. The user enters its choice in the console. • Each of the empty spots have a corresponding number that the players choose on their turn. If the user enters anything other than the number of an empty spot (not yet filled with "X" or "O"), it will not be accepted, and they will be prompted to enter a correct number. 2 4 7 8 • After each turn, two things need to be done: 1) displaying the updated board 2) checking if anyone has won (it should be printed who has won – the user or the computer). The game goes on until someone wins or until all the 9 empty spots are filled and no…arrow_forward
- VBA - EXCEL Engine – optional – this indicates the solving method that needs to be used to get to a solution. 1 for the Simplex LP method, 2 for the GRG Nonlinear method, or 3 for the Evolutionary method. This corresponds to the Select a Solving Method dropdown list in the Solver Parameters dialog box EngineDesc – optional -this is an alternate way of selecting the solving method – here you would type the strings “Simplex LP”, “GRG Nonlinear” or “Evolutionary”. This also corresponds to the Select a Solving Method dropdown list in the Solver Parameters dialog box What happens when the code demonstrates: Engine:=1, EngineDesc:="GRG Nonlinear" ?arrow_forwardIn C# language using Microsoft Visual Studio in Windows Forms App (.NET Framework) A slot machine is a gambling device that the user inserts money into and then pulls a lever (or presses a button). The slot machine then displays a set of random images. If two or more of the images match, the user wins an amount of money, which the slot machine dispenses back to the user. Design a program that simulates a slot machine. When the program runs, it should do the following: Ask the user to enter the amount of money he or she wants to insert into the slot machine. Create an application that simulates a slot machine. The application should let the user enter into a TextBox the amount of money he or she is inserting into the machine. When the user clicks the Spin button, the application should display three randomly selected symbols. (Slot machines traditionally display fruit symbols.arrow_forwardNumber of electoral votes: 200Number of popular votes: 300arrow_forward
- Java - Golf Scoresarrow_forwardFour in a row is a game in which players take turns adding tokens to the columns on the game board. Tokens fall to the lowest position in the chosen column that does not already have a token in it. Once one of the players has placed four of their tokens in a straight line (either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally), they win the game If the board is full and no player has won, then the game ends in a draw. TASK Using the following class descriptions, create a UML diagram and a version of Four in a row game The game must allow for a minimum of two and maximum of four players The game must allow each player to enter their name(duplicate names should not be accepted) The game should give the players the ability to choose how many rows (between four and ten), and how many columns (between four and ten) the game board should have. The code uses several classes, including "Player", "Board","Game" and exceptions for handling errors such as invalid moves and full columns.…arrow_forwardChallenge Activity 1: Turtle Graphics (PYTHON): Hit the Target Modification Enhance the hit_the_target game program shown in the computer lab activity above, so that, when the projectile misses the target, it displays hints to the user indicating whether the angle and/or the force value should be increased or decreased. For example, the program should display messages such as 'Try a greater angle' and 'Use less force.'arrow_forward
- Java Programming Travel Tickets Company sells tickets for airlines, tours, and other travel-related services. Because ticket agents frequently mistype long ticket numbers, Travel Tickets has asked you to write an application that indicates invalid ticket number entries. The class prompts a ticket agent to enter a six-digit ticket number. Ticket numbers are designed so that if you drop the last digit of the number, then divide the number by 7, the remainder of the division will be identical to the last dropped digit. This process is illustrated in the following example: Step 1. Enter the ticket number; for example, 123454. Step 2. Remove the last digit, leaving 12345. Step 3. Determine the remainder when the ticket number is divided by 7. In this case, 12345 divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 4. Step 4. Assign the Boolean value of the comparison between the remainder and the digit dropped from the ticket number. Step 5. Display the result—true or false—in a message box.
