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.
Input Validation: Do not accept negative values for either the wholesale cost of the item or the markup percentage.

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?
Time CalculatorWrite a program that asks the user to enter a number of seconds.-There are 60 seconds in a minute. If the number of seconds entered by the user is greater than or equal to 60, the program should display the number of minutes and leftover seconds in that many seconds.-There are 3,600 seconds in an hour. If the number of seconds entered by the user is greater than or equal to 3,600, the program should display the number of hours, minutes, and leftover seconds in that many seconds.-There are 86,400 seconds in a day. If the number of seconds entered by the user is greater than or equal to 86,400, the program should display the number of days, hours, minutes, and leftover seconds in that many seconds.
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_forwardAssignment Description This program will simulate part of the game of Yahtzee! This is a dice game that involves rolling five dice and scoring points based on what show up on those five dice. The players would record their scores on a score card, and then total them up, and the player with the larger total wins the game. 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_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_forward
- USING C++ PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE A mobile phone service has three different data plans for its customers: PLAN A: For $19.99 per month, 2 gigabytes are provided. Additional usage costs $8.00 per gigabyte. PLAN B: For $59.99 per month, 8 gigabytes are provided. Additional usage costs $8.00 per gigabyte. PLAN C: For $79.99 per month, Unlimited data is provided. Write a program that calculates a customer’s monthly bill. It should input the customer name, which plan was purchased, and how many gigabytes were used. It should then create a bill that includes the input information and the total amount due. It should also display how much money plan A customers would save if they purchased plan B or C, and how much money plan B customers would save if they purchased plan C. If there would be no savings, no message should be printed. Wherever possible, use named constants instead of numbers.arrow_forwardThe following code intends to input a user’s first name, last name, and age.However, it has an error.

Note that employees may work for fractions of an hour, e.g. 1 and a half hours (1.5 hours). Use the following formulas: Less than or equal to 40 hours worked hourly wage * hours worked Over 40, but less than or equal to 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hours worked - 40) * (hourly wage * 1.5) Over 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hourly wage * 1.5) * 25 + (hours worked - 65) * hourly wage * 2 Also make sure that the hourly wage and hours worked are positive. Otherwise, display the error message: "Invalid input". Please see the sample outputs below to guide the design of your program. main.cc file #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main() { // TODO: accept user input to store the hourly wage and hours worked. // Then, include the header file at the top of this file so you can // call your function that computes a…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_forward(Rounding Numbers) Function floor can be used to round a number to a specific decimal place.

The statementy = floor(x * 100 + 0.5) / 100;rounds x to the hundredths position (the second position to the right of the decimal point). Write a program that defines fourfunctions to round a number x in various ways:A. roundToInteger(number)B. roundToTenths(number)C. roundToHundredths(number)D. roundToThousandths(number)For each value read, your program should print the original value, the number rounded to the nearest integer, the number rounded to the nearest tenth, the number rounded to the nearest hundredth and the number rounded to the nearest thousandth.arrow_forwardWidgets and Gizmos An online retailer sells two products: widgets and gizmos.
