Given the following fragment that purports to convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, answer the following questions:double c = 20;double f;f = (9/5) * c + 32.0;a. What value is assigned to f?b. Explain what is actually happening, and what the programmer likely wanted.c. Rewrite the code as the programmer intended.
Consider the following code fragment, where the variable letter contains an uppercase letter:
if 'A' <= letter <= 'U':...print("You entered a vowel")else:...print("The letter is not a vowel")
Based on the ordering of characters in the ASCII table, which of the following statements is not true about this code?
Select one:
a. Prints You entered a vowel for all vowels
b. Prints You entered a vowel for all vowels and all consonants.
c. Prints You entered a vowel for some consonants.
d. Prints The letter is not a vowel for some consonants.
you are required to write a universal calculator that HALFs that value of the different types of data. Especially, the calculator must take the following types of input.1. a decimal number2. a float point number3. a binary number which must be prefixed with "0b" (e.g. 0b111, 0b1010 are valid. 01b1010, ob101, 01010 are invalid)4. a hexadecimal number which must be prefixed with "0x" (e.g. 0x19, 0xAA are valid. 01x1A, ox1A, 01A are invalid)
Please note that:Your program must implement function overloading. You can consider the examples below for your implementation. You are provided with the initial code which can be found. The initial code has already checked different types of input for you.
