Write a program that implements a tip calculator. Your program should ask the user for the bill amount and the percentage of the tip, and then output the dollar amount of the tip and the final bill in three different formats. (see sample below)
Example:
Enter the bill amount: 27.95
Enter tip percentage: 17
A 17.0% tip on $27.95 equals $4.7515.
The total bill is: 32.701499999999996
The total bill is $32.7.
The total bill is $32.70.
Write a program that asks the user to enter 10 numbers, that range from 0-100. Make sure that you do not accept any numbers less than 0, if a user enters a number that is less than 0 then ask him again. Once the user enters all 10 numbers, find and print out the median.
How to calculate the Median
The median is the middle score of a distribution. To calculate the median
Arrange your numbers in numerical order.
Count how many numbers you have.
If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number.
If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.
Consider this set of numbers: 5, 7, 9, 9, 11. Since you have an odd number of scores, the median would be 9. You have five numbers, so you divide 5 by 2 to get 2.5, and round up to 3 (to round numbers in C#, use Math.Round()). The number in the third position is the median.
In this case, the mean…
Write a program that invites the user to enter two numbers: a dividend (the top number in a division) and a divisor (the bottom number). It then calculates quotient and remainder using / and % operator and displays the result. After one iteration it asks user whether he/she wants to do more (Y/N).

- Create a program that uses Python's random number generator to simulate flipping a coin several times. The simulated coin should be fair, meaning that the probability of heads is equal to the probability of tails. Your program should flip simulated coins until either 3 consecutive heads of 3 consecutive tails occur. Display an H each time the outcome is heads, and a T each time the outcome is tails, with all of the outcomes shown on the same line. Then display the number of flips needed to reach 3 consecutive flips with the same outcome . When your program is run it should perform the simulation 10 times and report the average number of flips needed.arrow_forwardWrite a program that calculates and prints the total bill at a restaurant.

The program should ask the user to enter a number from 1-6 and the corresponding hangman should be printed. The value the user inputs corresponds to the number of incorrect guesses in a real hangman game and so the completeness of the hangman will correspond to the number of ‘incorrect guesses’ inputted by the user (e.g., if the user enters 1, then only the head of the hangman will be printed; full example below). Example:Enter a number from 1-6: 1O Enter a number from 1-6: 2O|Enter a number from 1-6: 3O\||Enter a number from 1-6: 4O\|/|Enter a number from 1-6: 5O\|/|/Enter a number from 1-6: 6O\|/|/ \Feelarrow_forwardWrite a python program: Let the user specify S (the number of sides on a die) and N (the number of tosses of two S -sided dice). Assume ((S << N) and (3 <= S <= 20)). Since each die side is labeled with a unique integer taken from the range [ 1,S ], the sum of each dice toss is in the range [ (2=1+1),(2*S=S+S) ] . For example, when S = 6 , then the sum of each dice toss is in the range [ 2,12 ]. Make N dice tosses and count how frequently each sum occurs. Output a horizontal histogram that depicts the frequency distribution of the sums of the N dice tosses. Every sum in the range [ 2,2*S ] and its frequency of occurrence should be output using the format XXX (XXXXXXXX) | ****** where XXX is the sum, (XXXXXXXX) is the frequency, and each '*' represents 1% of the 100% of frequency distribution. The number of '*' output for each sum is computed by rounding the quotient (counts[sum]/N) up to the nearest integer. The entire histogram will contain (2*S-2+1) lines 2…arrow_forward

If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high, try again” If user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low, try again”. If the user guesses the number, the program should congratulate the user and then generate a NEW random number so the game can start over.
