Markup
Write a
• If an item’s wholesale cost is $5.00 and its markup percentage is 100 percent, then the item’s retail price is $10.00.
• If an item’s wholesale cost is $5.00 and its markup percentage is 50 percent, then the item’s retail price is $7.50.
The program should have a function named calculateRetail that receives the wholesale cost and the markup percentage as arguments and returns the retail price of the item.

Problem: Feed Nibble Monster Till Full
Write a program that generates a number in [0, 500] at the beginning -- this corresponds to how hungry the monster is -- and keeps asking the user to feed the monster until that number falls to zero.
Each time the user feeds the monster a nibble, hunger decreases by the decimal value of the character (i.e. if the user feeds 'A' hunger decreases by 65). But when the user feeds the monster some character that isn't a nibble, the hunger increases by the decimal value of the character (since puking depletes energy).
Use while loop.
Sample runs:
Notice the loop exits after one iteration, because hunger was very low and one nibble made the monster full:
Notice hunger increasing after non-nibble (pink highlight):
Notice that the program just keeps going when the user feeds the monster only non-nibbles. Do you think the program will keep running forever if the user never gives the monster nibbles?
Computer Fundamentals and Programming 2
Write a program that determines a student’s grade. The program will accept 3 scores and computes the average score. Determine the grade based on the following rules:
- If the average score is equal or greater than 90, the grade is A.
- If the average score is greater than or equal to 70 and less than 90, the grade is B.
- If the average score is greater than or equal to 50 and less than 70, the grade is C.
- If the average score is less than 50, the grade is F.
Source Codes and Print Screen of the Output
Nice Number Programming: Nice program ask user to enter three integers from keyboard (java console), the three integers represent left bound, right bound and arbitrary digit 'm', where left bound is less than right bound. Program should print all nice numbers in the given range that doesn't contain digit 'm'. The number is nice if its every digit is larger than the sum of digits which are on the right side of that digit. For example 741 is a nice number since 4> 1, and 7> 4+1. with digit m=2.
Write a complete program in Java that Call only One method (niceNumbers method) that will print all nice numbers excluding a given digit 'm' that also entered by user?

- Guess The Number Game: write a program that will ask the user to guess a secret numberrandomly generated by your program between 1-10. Player have 3 trials to guess the number.After each trial, you have to inform the user, either he/she has guessed it correctly or not, andthe remaining trials to guess the number. In each trial your program should generate a newrandom number. If user guess at least twice correctly, then shows the message, “you won by 2-1” and vice versa for losing.When game is over, ask the user to play again: If the user types "yes", the game start again.else stop the game.arrow_forwardAnagram words Write a C code that asks users to enter two words, one after the other and checks if these words are anagrams (permutations of the same letters). For instance, the words “smartest” and “mattress” are anagrams. Examplea Run 1: Please enter first word: lookplease enter the second word: coolSorry! “cool” and “look” are not anagrams. Run 2: Please enter first word: masters please enter the second word: smartes Yes! “masters” and “smartes” are anagrams. Hint: If you sort the two words that are anagrams, they will become identical! For instance, “smartest” and “masters” both sort to “aemrsstt” You can use all functions in <string.h> Sorting a string is exactly similar to sorting an array. You just need to know the length of the string and make sure you do not touch the terminating null.arrow_forwardAssignment Description This program will simulate part of the game of Yahtzee!

A Yahtzee score card has two portions: The upper portion has spaces for six scores, obtained by adding up all of the 1's, 2's, 3's, etc. The lower portion has special scores for various combinations: Three of a kind -- at least 3 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Four of a kind -- at least 4 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Small straight -- four consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 2345;the score is 25 points Large straight -- five consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 23456;the score is 30 points Full House -- three of one kind, two of another; the score is 30 points Yahtzee! -- five of a kind; the…arrow_forward
- Number guessing Game Write a C program that implements the “guess my number” game. The computer chooses a random number using the following random generator function srand(time(NULL)); int r = rand() % 100 + 1; that creates a random number between 1 and 100 and puts it in the variable r. (Note that you have to include <time.h>) Then it asks the user to make a guess. Each time the user makes a guess, the program tells the user if the entered number is larger or smaller than its number. The user then keeps guessing till he/she finds the number. If the user doesn’t find the number after 10 guesses, a proper game over message will be shown and the actual guess is revealed. If the user makes a correct guess in its allowed 10 guesses, then a proper message will be shown and the number of guesses the user made to get the correct answer is also printed. After each correct guess or game over, the user decides to play again or quit and based on the user choice, the computer will make…arrow_forwardNeed help coding in Java Morgan’s Department Store distributes bonuses to its salespeople after the holiday rush.

For example, using letters, the telephone number 438-5626 can be shown as GET LOAN. In some cases, to make a telephone number meaningful, companies might use more than seven letters. For example, 255-5466 can be displayed as CALL HOME, which uses eight letters. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a telephone number expressed in letters and outputs the corresponding telephone number in digits. If the user enters more than seven letters, then process only the first seven letters. Also output the hyphen after the third digit. Allow the user to use both uppercase and lowercase letters as well as spaces between words. Moreover, your program should process as many telephone numbers as the user wants.arrow_forward

Trivia Game In this programming exercise, you will create a simple trivia game for two players. The program will work like this: Starting with player 1, each player gets a turn at answering 5 trivia questions. (There should be a total of 10 questions.) When a question is displayed, 4 possible answers are also displayed. Only one of the answers is correct, and if the player selects the correct answer, he or she earns a point. After answers have been selected for all the questions, the program displays the number of points earned by each player and declares the player with the highest number of points the winner. To create this program, write a Question class to hold the data for a trivia question.
