Chapter 8.3, Problem 16CP
Program Plan Intro
String modification methods:
- • In Python, the method “lower()” would return a copy of a string with its entire letters converted to lowercase.
- • The method “upper()” would return a copy of a string with its entire letters converted to uppercase.
Syntax:
The syntax for “upper()” method is shown below:
string_variable = ‘string_value’
string_variable.upper()
Explanation:
In the above syntax,
- • The “string_value” denotes string.
- • The “string_variable” denotes variable that references a string.
- • The “string_variable.upper()” converts the entire string alphabets to upper case characters.

At different points in the game, you want the user to select to fight, run, or hide from certain enemies. Modify the application below (week3.py) so that the selection variable is sent as an argument into the choice() function. The user should enter 1 to fight, 2 to run, or 3 to hide in the main(). The choice() function should print one of the three options. You will need to add an if statement in the choice() function to make the correct selection.arrow_forwardThe following function has errors.

- Usage: mortgagepmt [-s] -r rate [-d downpayment] price In this assignment, you are asked to do a mortgage payment calculation. All information needed for this will be passed to the program on the command line. There will be no user input during the execution of the program. You will need a few pieces of information. The price of the home and the amount of the down payment. You will also need to know the interest rate and the term of the mortgage. To figure your mortgage payment, start by converting your annual interest rate to a monthly interest rate by dividing by 12. Next, add 1 to the monthly rate. Third, multiply the number of years in the term of the mortgage by 12 to calculate the number of monthly payments you’ll make. Fourth, raise the result of 1 plus the monthly rate to the negative power of the number of monthly payments you’ll make. Fifth, subtract that result from 1. Sixth, divide the monthly rate by the result. Last, multiply the result by the amount you want to borrow.…arrow_forwardLAB 2 - Arithmetic Expression %3 Given a quadratic equation in the form: ax² + bx + c = 0 where a, b and c are coefficients.

Complete the print_jacobsthal_numbers () function that takes an integer parameter number_of_terms specifying the number of Jacobsthal numbers the function needs to print. You can assume that number_of_terms will always be an integer that is 1 or more. The function should print the specified number of Jacobsthal numbers on a single line with each Jacobsthal number separated by a ", ". Some examples of the function being called are shown below. For example: Test Result print_jacobsthal_numbers (3) 0, 1, 1 print_jacobsthal_numbers (5) 0, 1, 1, 3, 5 Answer: (penalty regime: 0, 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 %) Reset answer 1 def print_jacobsthal_numbers(number_of_terms): ▼arrow_forward
