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.

- (Mathematical functions) Write a program that calculates and displays values for y when y=xz/(xz) Your program should calculate y for values of x ranging between 1 and 5 and values of z ranging between 2 and 6. The x variable should control the outer loop and be incremented in steps of 1, and z should be incremented in steps of 1. Your program should also display the message Function Undefined when the x and z values are equal.arrow_forwardCOSC 1336 –Programming Fundamentals IProgram 6 – Repetition Structures An answer should be in Python Programing Write a program that calculates the occupancy rate for a hotel. The program should start by asking the user how many floors the hotel has. A loop should then iterate once for each floor. 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. Run your program twice with the following data: Run 1 Floors on the hotel: 5Rooms on floor 1: 10Rooms occupied: 5Rooms on floor 2: 12Rooms occupied: 11Rooms on floor 3: 8Rooms occupied: 4Rooms on floor 4: 10Rooms occupied: 0Rooms on floor 5: 12Rooms occupied: 8 Run 2Floors on the hotel: 6Rooms…arrow_forward2. Class Exam Results Create a python program that allows a professor to input test results, and calculate the average and high score. The professor is not sure how many students took the exam that day, so you'll need to use a loop that iterates until the professor indicates there are no more students to enter. Include field validation logic to ensure the professor has entered valid test scores. You'll need an accumulator and counter variable to calculate the average. To determine the high, you'll need a variable that stores the current high score as you're iterating thru all the students' results. If a given student's score is higher than the current high score, that becomes the new high score. Initialize the high score to a 0 so the first student's score is automatically higher. Once the loop has ended, you've got all the information you need to print the class average, number of students and the high exam score.arrow_forward
- 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…arrow_forwardCelsius to Fahrenheit TableWrite a program that displays a table of the Celsius temperatures 0 through 20 and their Fahrenheit equivalents.

- Lottery Analysis: You can use a loop to see how hard it might be to win the kind of lottery you just modeled. Starting with your program in 9-14, write a loop that keeps pulling numbers until your ticket wins. Print a message reporting how many times the loop had to run to give you a winning ticket. Also print the winning ticket number so you can confirm it is on the winning ticket list. You may want to reduce the number of digits in your winning ticket for test purposes. Your output may look something like this: winning ticket list: ['2114AZAD', '8621ZDDA', '53310AABA', '11032DABD', '21071ADAZ', '6184AZZB', '10469DZDZ', '7436ZDBD', '10657DDDZ', '4944DDDA'] number_of_tries to win: 315416 possible winner: 7436ZDBDarrow_forward1. 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_forwardMUST BE IN PYTHON PROGRAMMING CODE!!!!! NO C++ or Java!! Directions: Design a program with a loop that lets the user enter a series of names (in no particular order). After the final person’s name has been entered, the program should display the name that is first alphabetically and the name that is last alphabetically. For example, if the user enters the names Kristin, Joel, Adam, Beth, Zeb, and Chris, the program would display Adam and Zeb. Additional requirements: Note that the possible set of input values can include negative, 0, or positive values, but not the sentinel value of -99. DESIGN HINT: • When determining the largest (or smallest) value in a set of numbers, remember to use variables to keep track of the current largest (or smallest) number found thus far. These variables can then be used as a comparison to each subsequent input number to see if the new number is larger (or smaller) than the current largest (or smallest) number and updated appropriately. At the end of all…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.”arrow_forwardPython 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_forwardUsing 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_forward
