Sailboat Race Ranking
- 1. All input values must be valid integers.
- 2. In any column (a single race), the three integers must add up to 6 (1 + 2 + 3, in any order). We assume there are no tie scores.
When one of these input validations fails, display an appropriate message in the status bar. You do not need to customize the message for each input field, but you must explain the nature of the error (nonnumeric, or duplicate values for a single race). Figure 4-37 shows a sample of the program as the user is entering values, and has incorrectly entered the rankings for Race #1. If all inputs are correct, display the rankings, as shown in the sample in Figure 4-38. It is possible for two or more boats to have the same total race score. In that case, display the word "TIE" on the status bar, and turn the font color for all three scores to the color Red. An example of tie scores is shown in Figure 4-39.
NOTE: There are six ways of arranging the rankings of three sailboats, so your nested IF statement must be able to create these arrangements. The arrangements are: (1, 2, 3), (1, 3, 2), (2, 1, 3), (2, 3, 1), (3, 1, 2), and (3, 2, 1).

- Open the Calories Solution.sln file contained in the VB2017\Chap08\Calories Solution folder. Open the Code Editor window and locate the btnDisplay_Click procedure. The procedure declares and initializes a one-dimensional array named intCalories. The array stores the numbers of daily calories consumed. The procedure should calculate and display the average number of calories consumed; use the Math.Round method to round the average to an integer. (You learned about the Math.Round method in Chapter 6.) The procedure should also display the number of days in which the daily calories were greater than the average, the number of days in which the daily calories were the same as the average, and the number of days in which the daily calories were less than the average. Code the procedure. Save the solution and then start and test the application.arrow_forwardThe intSales array is declared as follows: Dim intSales() As Integer = {10000, 12000, 900, 500, 20000}. The statement intSales (2) += 10 will _____. replace the 900 amount with 10 replace the 900 amount with 910 replace the 12000 amount with 10 replace the 12000 amount with 12010arrow_forwardText-based adventure game: Pretend you are creating a text-based adventure game. At different points in the game, you want the user to select to fight, run, or hide from certain enemies. Modify the application below (week3.py) so that the selection variable is sent as an argument into the choice() function. The user should enter 1 to fight, 2 to run, or 3 to hide in the main(). The choice() function should print one of the three options. You will need to add an if statement in the choice() function to make the correct selection.arrow_forward
- 99 question Reza Enterprises sells tickets for buses, tours, and other travel services. Because Reza frequently mistypes long ticket numbers, Reza Enterprises has asked his students to write an application that shows if a ticket is invalid. Your application/program tells the ticket agent to enter a six-digit ticket number. Ticket numbers are designed so that if you lose the last digit of the number, then divide by 7, the remainder of the division is exactly the same to the last dropped digit. This process is shown below: Step 1: Enter the ticket number; for example 123454 Step 2: Remove the last digit, leaving 12345 Step 3: Determine the remainder when the ticket number from step 2 is divided by 7. In this case, 12345 divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 4. Step 4: Display a message to the ticket agent indicating whether the ticket number is valid or not. If the ticket number is valid, save the number to a .txt file called “tickets.txt” and.arrow_forwardPopulationCreate an application that predicts the approximate size of a population of organisms. The application should use text boxes to allow the user to enter the startingnumber of organisms, the average daily population increase (as a percentage), andthe number of days the organisms will be left to multiply. For example, assume theuser enters the following values:Starting number of organisms: 2Average daily increase: 30%Number of days to multiply: 10The application should display the following table of data in a ListBox control:Day Approximate Population1 22 2.63 3.384 4.3945 5.71226 7.425867 9.6536198 12.54979 16.3146210 21.209arrow_forwardQuestion:- 3 DropLowGrade() – allows a user to drop their lowest grade This function will determine the lowest grade of the student and remove that grade from the list of grades. After dropping the grade from the list of grades a message will be displayed informing the user of the grade, and its letter grade, that has been dropped. (Ex. “The following grade has been dropped: 70/C”)arrow_forward
- MPI Lab Directions Write an MPI program, countprimes which will count the number of prime numbers in the numbers from 1 to n inclusive where n is a long integer. The value for n which should be set in the program using a constant should be 50,000. Each process will test its share of the cases. Each process should not print out any primes that it finds, but it should keep a running total. Before the process finishes, it should print out its ID number and its count of primes that it found. The master process should end with printing a total for the count of the number of primes and the total amount of time taken to find all the primes. Take a screenshot of the output for running this with 5 processes. Before submission, make sure you clean up the directories so that no miscellaneous files are kept around in the submission. (Grade would be deducted if useless files are found in the homework directories.) Include the source code, screenshot, and the Makefile in the submission.

The slot machine then displays a set of random images. If two or more of the images match, the user wins an amount of money that the slot machine dispenses back to the user. Create an application that simulates a slot machine. Figure 8-23 (on page 539 of your book) shows an example of how the form should look. The application should let the user enter into a TextBox the amount of money he or she is inserting into the machine. When the user clicks the Spin button, the application should display three randomly selected symbols. (Slot machines traditionally display fruit symbols. You will find a set of fruit symbols attached to this dropbox for your use - from the Student Sample Programs provided by the book author.) If none of the randomly displayed images match, the program should inform the user that he or she has won…arrow_forwardName Formatter Create an application that lets the user enter the following pieces of data: • The user’s first name • The user’s middle name • The user’s last name • The user’s preferred title (Mr., Mrs., Ms., Dr., etc.) Assume the user has entered the following data: • First name: Kelly • Middle name: Jane • Last name: Smith • Title: Ms. The application should have buttons that display the user’s name formatted in the following ways: Ms. Kelly Jane Smith Kelly Jane Smith Kelly Smith Smith, Kelly Jane, Ms. Smith, Kelly Jane Smith, Kellyarrow_forward

Declare the variable balance as type Decimal.2. Assign the value 100 to the variable balance.3. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value. (Write 5% as 0.05D.)4. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value.5. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value.6. Display the value of balance (rounded to two decimal places) in a list box.arrow_forwardSports exercise advisor algorithm. In this algorithm you will start out with a temperature value in Celsius, so you do not need to ask the user for it. First, convert the temperature to Fahrenheit. Then display a recommended sports exercise based on the Fahrenheit temperature as follows: for temperatures between 65 and 80° display tennis, for colder temperatures display ping pong, and for warmer temperatures display canoeing. thanks in advancearrow_forwardPendant Publishing edits multi-volume manuscripts for many authors. For each volume, they want a label that contains the author’s name, the title of the work, and a volume number in the form Volume 9 of 9. For example, a set of three volumes requires three labels: Volume 1 of 3, Volume 2 of 3, and Volume 3 of 3. Design an application that reads records that contain an author’s name, the title of the work, and the number of volumes. The application must read the records until eof is encountered and produce enough labels for each work. The flowchart must include a call symbol, at the beginning, to redirect the input to the external data file. create a solution algorithm using pseudocode create a flowchart using RAPTORarrow_forward
