Dice Game
Write a
- Generate a random integer in the range of 1 through 6. This is the value of the computer’s die.
- Generate another random integer in the range of 1 through 6. This is the value of the user’s die.
- The die with the highest value wins. (In case of a tie, there is no winner for that particular roll of the dice.)
As the loop iterates, the program should keep count of the number of times the computer wins, and the number of times that the user wins. After the loop performs all of its iterations, the program should display who was the grand winner, the computer or the user,

GameAA.java
This program allows a user to play “Rock, paper, scissors” against the computer. Use a random number generator to generate the computer’s selection. Your code should ask the user what they choose and then report the computer’s choice and who wins.
This code should run in a loop and should end when the user chooses to end. (Make sure your random number generator chooses a new number each time the loop runs.)
ALSO, your code should keep track of the number of times you win, the number of times you lose, and the number of ties. When the user exits, these statistics should be displayed. (Consider using a different counter variable to keep track of each value.)
Make sure your code accounts for inputs that are out of the acceptable range. For example, if you ask the user to type 0 to end, 1 for Rock, 2 for Paper, and 3 for Scissors, your code should tell the user that they entered an invalid choice if they select 4. (You do not have to account for users who crash the…
Question: Average score
Write a program that uses loops to collect data and calculate the average score over a number of tests for a number of students.
The program should :
1. first ask the user to enter the number of students in the range of 1 to 10.
2. then the program asks the user to enter the number of tests (in the range of 1 to 5)
3. Then use a loop to collect the scores for those many tests for each student. The outer loop will iterate once for each student. The inner loop will iterate several times, once for each test. Each iteration of the inner loop will ask the user to enter the score for a test of a student.
3. After all iterations, the program should calculates and display the total scores and average score for each student.

- Budget Analysis (Running Total)Write a program BudgetAnalysis.py) that asks the user to enter the amount of money that he or she has available to spend on electronics this year. A loop should then prompt the user to enter each of his or her expenses for electronics and keep a running total. When the loop finishes, the program should display the total amount that the user spent, and analyse if there is still money to buy more electronics. Here are two test runs of the program: Enter your available amount for electronics in 2020: 1500 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): 340 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): 450 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): -1 So far you spent $ 790.0 You can buy more electronics. >>> ========= RESTART: C: \Users \Rita \Desktop \Lab5-1 B BudgetA Enter your available amount for electronics in 2020: 900 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): 730 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): 290 Enter your expense (-1 for stop): -1 So far you spent $ 1020.0 No more electronics in…arrow_forwardPressure Unit ConversionsWrite a program that converts a value in Torr into Kilopascal. Both of these are units used to measure pressure. Use the following formula to covert Torr to Kilopascal: 1 Torr = 132/1000 KiloPascalsYour Program must use a loop to display a table of the quantities in Torr from 1 to 10 and their KiloPascal equivalents.arrow_forwardPart A: While Loop Program - using Java. Write a program that detects Fibonacci numbers. Prompt the user to input a positive integer. Upon input, the program will determine if the number is either a Fibonacci number or not. If a Fibonacci number, then the order of the number in the sequence must be output. If not a Fibonacci number, then the Fibonacci numbers above and below it (including their order in the sequence) must be output. Once it finishes, the program will prompt the user for a new number. The program will exit if the user enters a non-integer number or string (such as “quit”) instead of an integer. Use the sample output file, fib-seq-det.txt, to view a sample session Additionally: For both the above problems, the first four numbers of the Fibonacci sequence are: 0, 1, 1, and 2. Part A must use While loops onlyarrow_forward
- Random Number Guessing Game Write a program that generates a random number between 1 and 100 and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high. Try again.” If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low. Try again.” The program should use a loop that repeats until the user correctly guesses the random number. Then the program should display “Congratulations. You figured out my number.”arrow_forwarda. A bowling team consists of five players. Each player bowls three games. Write a program that uses a nested loop to enter each player's individual scores and then computes and displays the average score for each bowler. Assume that each bowler has the following scores. Use two different loop structures for outer loop and inner loop. For example, if you use "for" as the outer loop structure, the inner loop should be "while" or "do.... while". 1st bowler: 286 2nd bowler: 212 3rd bowler: 252 232 4th bowler: 192 201 265 215 216 235 5th bowler: 186 252 186 236 272 b. Modify the program written for Exercise 3a to calculate and display the average team score. (Hint: Use a second variable to store the total of all the players' scores.)arrow_forwardP3 – Inverted Pyramid of Odd Numbers Write a program that prompts the user to enter an integer from 1 to 15 (that shows the number of lines) and displays an inverted pyramid of odd numbers starting with 1, as shown in the following sample run: Please enter the number of lines: 7 13 11 9 7 5 3 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 11 9 7 5 3 1 3 5 7 9 11 9 7 5 3 1 3 5 7 9 7 5 3 1 3 5 7 5 3 1 3 5 3 1 3 1arrow_forward

If the guess is not right, give the user the hint like “higher”, “lower”. Allow the user to retry and input the new guess. c. Likely you want to use a while loop to support the user’s multiple attempts. Stop the loop when the user guessed the number. d. Print out the number of attempts for the user for this round of game.arrow_forwardava problem: Write an application that allows a user to enter the names and birth dates of up to 10 friends. Continue to prompt the user for names and birth-dates until the user enters the sentinel value “ZZZ” for a name or has entered 10 names, whichever comes first. When the user is finished entering names, produce a count of how many names were entered, and then display the names. In a loop, continuously ask the user to type one of the names and display the corresponding birth-date or an error message if the name has not been previously entered. The loop continues until the user enters “ZZZ” for a name.arrow_forward
- Using c++Random Number Guessing Game Write a program that generates a random number between 1 and 100 and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high. Try again.” If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low. Try again.” The program should use a loop that repeats until the user correctly guesses the random number. Then the program should display “Congratulations. You figured out my number.” Enhance the program so it keeps a count of the number of guesses the user makes. When the user correctly guesses the random number, the program should display the number of guesses along with the message of congratulations.arrow_forwardCelsius to Fahrenheit TableWrite a program that displays a table of the Celsius temperatures 0 through 20 and their Fahrenheit equivalents. The formula for converting a temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit isF=9/5C+32where F is the Fahrenheit temperature, and C is the Celsius temperature. Your program must use a loop to display the table.arrow_forwardPart A: While Loop ProgramWrite a program that detects Fibonacci numbers. Prompt the user to input a positive integer.
