Write a program that displays the classic BINGO game, displays a BINGO card (5x5 square), and tests the bingo card for a winner via 2 users
Steps:
1- Ask user 1 to enter 24 numbers between 10-40 no duplicates / check for range and repetition
2- Ask user 2 to enter 24 numbers between 10-40 no duplicates / check for range and repetition
3- Design 2 BINGO cards as you see below
4- Distribute the numbers onto the 2 cards with each user input with 0 in the middle
5- Display the 2 cards in 1 screen as you see below
6- Generate a random number between 10-40 no duplicates / check for range and repetition
7- Compare the random number with the numbers on the 2 cards
8- If the random number matches any number on each card, change the number on the card to 0
9- Check for winning cards
5 numbers in a row or column = 0
5 numbers in a diagonal = 0
all 4 corners of the card = 0
if any of the players won, display who is the winner and exit the program
if the 2 players won, display both are the…
Write a Java program that displays a temperature conversion table for degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit. The table should include rows for all temperatures between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius that are multiples of 10 degrees Celsius.
Write a program that inputs a number and checks whether it is a perfect number or not. A perfect number is the number that is numerically equal to the sum of its divisors. For example, 6 is a perfect number because the divisors of 6 are 1, 2, 3 and 1+2+3=6
