The equation of a line in standard form is ax + by = c , wherein both aand b cannot be zero, and a, b, and c are real numbers. If b≠0, then –a/b is the slope of the line. If a = 0, then it is a horizontal line, and if b = 0, then it is a vertical line. The slope of a vertical line is undefined. Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope or both are vertical lines. Two lines are perpendicular if either one of the lines is horizontal and the other is vertical or the product of their slopes is –1. Design the class lineType to store a line. To store a line, you need to store the values of a (coefficient of x), b (coefficient of y), and c. Your class must contain the following operations:
If a line is nonvertical, then determine its slope.
Determine if two lines are equal. (Two lines a₁x + b₁y = c₁ and a₂x + b₂y = c₂ are equal if either a₁ = a₂, b₁ = b₂, and c₁ = c₂, or a₁ = ka₂, b₁ = kb₂ and c₁ = kc₂, and for some real number k.)
Determine if two lines are parallel.

In practical life, the employees get salaries and pay taxes honestly. Sometimes, the process of drawing salariesand payment of taxes may lead to some interesting situation. Suppose, a person draws salary of Rs. 10,000 permonth. A certain percentage of tax is charged on that amount, which is deducted every month. But if the salaryof the person is more than Rs. 10,000 per month, then the tax rate is different. Similarly if a person is getting Rs.20,000 per month, he/she would be charged more under a different tax rate slab. The interesting situationdevelops if there is an anomaly in the tax rates i.e. a person who is getting higher salary takes home lesser moneyas compared to the other person with less gross salary.To further elaborate it, we suppose that there is company 'C' where 100 or less than 100persons are employed. The salaries of the employees and their tax rates are known to us.We are required to list those unlucky persons, who are getting lesser take-home salary(net salary)…
Let l be a line in the x-yplane. If l is a vertical line, its equation is x = a for some real number a.
Suppose l is not a vertical line and its slope is m. Then the equation of l is y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept.
If l passes through the point (x₀, y₀), the equation of l can be written as y - y₀ = m(x - x₀).
If (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are two points in the x-y plane and x₁ ≠ x₂, the slope of line passing through these points is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).
Instructions
Write a program that prompts the user for two points in the x-y plane. Input should be entered in the following order:
Input x₁
Input y₁
Input x₂

As the walls of the well were not completely vertical, the cat could climb up the well. In one day, the cat can climb 1 unit height and the height of the well is h units. The cat starts at the bottom. Every day, a cat would divide into 2 cats. One of them would climb up 1 unit. The other would wait for help. But while waiting it would fall asleep and roll down 1 unit, unless it is already at the bottom, in which case it just remains there. When a cat would reach the top, it would run home toAmitabh. (Schrodinger doesn't know that some of the cats are in a well and so he can't rescue them). It has been d days since the cat fell into the well. How many cats would come out of the well today? You would notice that the number of cats grows very large with each passing day, so output the answer modulo 10^9+7. d = 0 means that the cat has fallen just now and so there's just one cat at the bottom of the well.

Equivalently, a perfect number is a number that is half the sum of all of its positive divisors. The first perfect number is 6, because 1, 2 and 3 are its proper positive divisors, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.
