Define a function drawCircle. This function should expect a Turtleobject, the coordinates of the circle’s center point, and the circle’s radius as arguments. The function should draw the specified circle. The algorithm should draw the circle’s circumference by turning 3 degrees and moving a given distance 120 times. Calculate the distance moved with the formula 2.0 × π × radius ÷ 120.0.
Define a function main that will draw a circle with the following parameters when the program is run:
X = 50
Y = 75
Radius = 100
(Rounding Numbers) An application of function floor is rounding a value to the nearestinteger. The statementy = floor(x + .5);will round the number x to the nearest integer and assign the result to y. Write a program that readsseveral numbers and uses the preceding statement to round each of these numbers to the nearestinteger. For each number processed, print both the original number and the rounded number.
Coin Toss
Write a function named coinToss that simulates the tossing of a coin. When you call the function, it should generate a random number in the range of 1 through 2. If the random number is 1, the function should display "heads". If the random number is 2, the function should display "tails". Demonstrate the function in a program that sks the user how many times the coin should be tossed and the coin then simulates the tossing of the coin that number of times.

- Lowest Score Drop Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following functions: void getScore() should ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five scores to be entered. void calcAverage() should calculate and display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores. int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop. Input Validation: Do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100.arrow_forwardTracking laps Learning Objectives In this lab, you will practice writing functions, passing arguments and returning results from the function printing the result of a function call writing your code as a module Instructions Main Idea An Olympic-size swimming pool is used in the Olympic Games, where the racecourse is 50 meters (164.0 ft) in length. "In swimming, a lap is the same as a length. By definition, a lap means a complete trip around a race track, in swimming, the pool is the race track. Therefore if you swim from one end to the other, you’ve completed the track and thus you’ve completed one lap or one length." (Source: What Is A Lap In Swimming? Lap Vs Length) Write the function meters_to_laps() that takes a number of meters as an argument and returns the real number of laps. Complete the program to output the number of laps with two digits after the period.

- Language: Python A particular talent competition has 5 judges, each of whom awards as score between 0 and 10 to each performer. Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer's final score is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the 3 remaining scores. Write a program that uses these rules to calculate and display a contestant's score. It should include the following functions: -getJudgeData() should ask the use for a judge's score, store in a parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main program once for each of the 5 judges. -calcScore(score1, score2, score3, score4, score5) should calculate and return the average of the 3 scores that remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received.

- Instructions Write a function create_password() expects two parameters: pet_name (a string) and fav_number (an integer). The function returns a new password generated using the following pattern: fav_number followed by the pet_name followed by the star * and fav_number again (see the example below). Create a program that gets a pet name and a favorite number as input from the user, calls the above function, and then prints the output as shown below. Example Input: Angel 3 Output: Your new password is "3Angel*3". Note that the double quotes are part of the output. The assert in the provided template is checking that this function call is returning the correct value (i.e., a correctly-formed string). assert create_password("Angel", 3) == "3Angel*3" Hints Remember that you cannot directly concatenate an integer and a string - you need to convert an integer into a string using either str() or by using f-strings.
