Distance Traveled
The distance a vehicle travels can be calculated as follows:
For example, if a train travels 40 miles-per-hour for three hours, the distance traveled is 120 miles. Write a
| Hour | Distance Traveled |
| 1 | 40 |
| 2 | 80 |
| 3 | 120 |
Input Validation: Do not accept a negative number for speed and do not accept any value less than 1 for time traveled.

a. 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".

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.)
The distance a vehicle travels can be calculated as follows: Distance = Speed X TimeDesign a program that asks a user for the speed of a vehicle in miles per hour and how many hours it has travelled (Assume the two values are integers). Your program should then use a loop to display the distance the vehicle has traveled for each hour of that time period. (For example, entering 50 mph and 4 hours should produce output like: Hour 1: 50 miles, Hour 2: 100 miles, Hour 3: 150 miles, Hour 4: 200 miles. )
Celsius 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.

- Python Coding-While Loops (In PyCharm Community edition) Create a while loop that SUMS up ALL the numbers given from an initial number and an ending number. Example would be : Input1 : What is the first number? 0 Input2 : What is the last number? 3 DO NOT SHOW but these are the computations inside the code : 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 This is the Output : The sum of all the number from 0 to 3, is 6 In the code you are going to use a total variable and add each additional time it runs through the loop to that total. REMEMBER the assignment from the first unit of programming where we used this formula : BUT you are going to create your own method using a while loop to emulate what formula accomplishes WITHOUT using this formula. The user will put in the first number and the last to be SUMMED - you will use the while loop to calculate all of the additions leading to the final number.arrow_forward[Calculate grades’ average for a student] write a program that calculates the student grades’ average for a semester for the number of courses taken in that semester. Your program should do the following: 1.Read from user the number of courses (n) 2. Then, read the courses’ grades for n times (Hint: use a loop) 3.If a grade is grater than 100 or less than 0, ask the user to enter the grade again. 4.Calculate the average of grades using the following formula: average = (sum of grades) / n 5.Print out the average grade on the screen. Note: Always use appropriate data types.arrow_forwardWrite a while loop that will let the user enter a series of integer values and compute the total values and number of values entered. An odd number will stop the loop.

- 1. In the first loop, the low number will be the starting point for the loop and thehigh will be the ending point. The loop should display the iterator number andthat number x 10 on the same line, separated by a tab. See example on p. 177.2. The second loop should accumulate all the numbers between the starting pointand ending point. You will need to create and initialize an accumulator such astotal before you start the loop.arrow_forwardThe distance a vehicle travels can be calculated asfollows: distance = speed time. For example, if a traintravels 40 miles per hour for 3 hours, the distancetraveled is 120 miles. Write a program that asks the userfor the speed of a vehicle (in miles per hour) and howmany hours it has traveled. The program should then usea loop to display the distance the vehicle has traveledfor each hour of that time period.arrow_forwardBudget 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_forward
- 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.

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.

In each iteration, the loop should ask the user for the number of rooms on the floor and how many of them are occupied. After all the iterations, the program should display how many rooms the hotel has, how many of them are occupied, howmany are unoccupied, and the percentage of rooms that are occupied. The percentage may be calculated by dividing the number of rooms occupied by the number of rooms.
