Chapter 8, Problem 3E
Write a function e that takes as its arguments two t structures and returns a t structure that represents the elapsed time (in hours, minutes, and seconds) between the two times. So the call
e
where t represents 3:45:15 and t represents 9:44:03, should return a t structure that represents 5 hours, 58 minutes, and 48 seconds. Be careful with times that cross midnight.

Write a function in C progarmming language that gets a string str, changes all lower case letters to * (asterisk), and all upper case letters to $ (dollar sign). All other characters remain unchanged. The function returns the total number of letters modified.
int hide_letters(char* str);
For example:
- If str is "12ab0", then the function changes it to "12**0", and returns 2.
- If str is "aBCDe*", then the function changes it to "*$$$**", and returns 5.
- If str is "0123&***", then the function keeps the string as is, and returns 0.
- An empty string is also a string.
Write a function in C language that takes the time as three integer arguments (for hours, minutes, and seconds) and returns the number of seconds since the last time the clock “struck 12.” Use this function to calculate the amount of time in seconds between two times, both of which are within one 12-hour cycle of the clock.
In C, write a function that gets two ints a and b. If a>b the function returns a^3 + b^2, and otherwise it returns a^2 + b^3.
int square_cube (int a, int b);
For example:
square_cube (1,2) should return 1 + 8 = 9.
square_cube (10, 3) should return 1000 + 9 = 1009.
square_cube (2, -1) should return 8 + 1 = 9.
square_cube (-2, -1) should return 4 - 1 = 3.

- Write a program in c++ that calculates the area and perimeter of an upright rectangle.Create a struct Point that has two double values, x and y. Write a function that asks the user for a Point. Call that function twice, once to get the bottom left corner of a rectangle, and once to get the top right corner. Write another function that takes two Points and returns area and perimeter. Print out the area and perimeter. Given two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the formulas to compute perimeter and area are as follows P erimeter = 2 ∗ (abs(x1 − x2) + abs(y1 − y2))Area = abs(x1 − x2) ∗ abs(y1 − y2)arrow_forwardWrite a c++ program: Write a function named convertToLowestTerms that inputs two integer parameters by reference named numerator and denominator. The function should treat these variables as a fraction and reduce them to lowest terms. For example, if numerator is 20 and denominator is 60, then the function should change the variables to 1 and 3, respectively. This will require finding the greatest common divisor for the numerator and denominator then dividing both variables by that number. If the denominator is zero, the function should return false, otherwise the function should return true. Write a driver program that uses convertToLowestTerms to reduce and output several fractions.arrow_forwardWrite a function rps in Python that returns the result of a game of "Rock,Paper, Scissors". The function accepts two arguments, each one of 'R','P','S' , that represents the symbol played by each of the two players.

- Write a function str_replace that takes three strings, str1, str2 and str3; and replaces the first occurence (if any) of str2 in str1 with str3, and returns the newly formed string. For example, str_replace("Nuclear Energy Engineering", "Nuclear Energy", "Mechanical") returns "Mechanical Engineering"arrow_forwardWrite a function that receives 3 assignment grades, a1, a2, a3, and a final grade, f, for a student and returns the corresponding letter grade of the student. The weights for the assignments and the final are 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, and 0.4, respectively. You can use the following table for matching grades to letters: 95-100 -> A1 90-94 -> A2 85-89 -> A3 80-84 -> B1 75-79 -> B2 70-74 -> B3 65-69 -> C1 60-64 -> C2 55-59 -> C3 40-54 -> D 0-39 -> F For example, compute_letter(80, 60, 40, 70) returns "C2" because 80 * 0.2 + 50 * 0.2 + 40 * 0.2 + 70 * 0.4 = 62 and 62 corresponds to C2. Note that, you are expected to do rounding. For example, 39.4 is F, whereas 39.5 is D. You can use the builtin round() function for this. Please google this function and learn how to use it.

Write another function ResTCKT that reserves thetickets by saving the Passport ID and seat number for the customers. Seat numbers must beassigned randomly between 1 and 150 with no repeating random number. Write a third functionPrintTCKT that shows the complete name of customers and their seat number as tabular formatshown below.
