- The cost of a new car
- The estimated miles driven per year
- The estimated gas price
- The efficiency in miles per gallon
- The estimated resale value after 5 years
Compute the total cost of owning the car for five years. (For simplicity, we will not take the cost of financing into account.) Obtain realistic prices for a new and used hybrid and a comparable car from the Web. Run your program twice, using today’s gas price and 15,000 miles per year. Include pseudocode and the program runs with your assignment.

Write a program to simulate a bank transaction. As the banker, create a single pin number for all customer that enter the bank (a constant variable). You are now ready for customer transactions. Prompt the customer for their name and pin number. If the pin number does not match your banker pin number, then they are not a valid customer. Send them away.
If the customer is a valid customer, there are two bank accounts: checking and savings. First, ask for the initial balances of the bank accounts; reject negative balances. Then ask for the transactions; options are deposit, withdrawal, and transfer. Then ask for the account; options are checking and savings. Then ask for the amount; reject transactions that overdraw an account. At the end, display the balances of both accounts (using printf) to two decimal places and with a leading dollar sign.
In this lab work, you will implement a coffee shop example. In this coffee shop, everything must
progress as if it does in real life. It means that the program should ask a person for body
temperature in Celsius, and grant or reject access to a coffee shop. When a customer orders a
coffee, they have to choose a size such as Small, Medium, and Large then, depending on the
order, the price has to change. The price also has to change depending on the type of coffee.
For example, for coffees that are similar to espresso, you also need to take every shot of
espresso into account. The actual prices of the coffees depend on your imagination however,
they should be realistic.
Some hints:
• Focus on dividing your program into multiple functions.
• You can also return double or integer types of values from your functions, so use them if
you can.
• Don't just code a function every possible type of, and try to make it generic as much as
possible.
• Be creative. Fill the gaps using your…
Write a program that plays a game with a single die (or dice). Each number on the die is worth a certain number of points. If the person rolls a six, then that roll is worth 4 points. If the person rolls a five, then that roll is worth 3 points. If the person rolls a three, then that roll is worth 2 points. All the other rolls (four, two or one), that roll is worth 1 point. The rules of the game is that the player rolls the die five times, and adds them up. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 15, then the player gets a rating of excellent. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 12 but less than 15, then the player gets a rating of above average. If the total adds up to a number greater than or equal to 7 but less than 12, then the player gets a rating of good. If the total adds up to a number less than 7, then the player gets a rating of poor. After the game is over, the program should ask the user if they want to play again.

- Suppose you have a knapsack that can carry up to 17 pounds. You can only put certain items, and each item has a weight and a value. You want to put the items that will give you the highest possible value, but you can only carry up to 15 pounds. Here are the items you can put and their weights and values: I Weight value Value/Weight 1 2 10 5 2 4 30 7.5 3 6 50 8.33 4 9 70 7.78 5 10 80 8 Table 1: Caption Your task is to solve the Knapsack Problem using a greedy approach.Hints:- Sort the items by their value-to-weight ratio in descending order. Start with the item with the highest value-to-weight ratio and add it to the knapsack. - Continue adding items to the knapsack in descending order of their value-to-weight ratio until the knapsack is full or there are no more items left. - Your solution should output the total value of the items in the knapsack and the list of items that you have put. -This…arrow_forwardWrite a program that deals a number of cards (their numerical values) to a player's hand. To begin, the program asks the player for the values of the deck of cards. Then, the program deals the first two cards of the deck to a player's hand, and asks him if he wants another card. If he does not want a card, the program ends. If he wants a card, the program deals the next available card in the deck, adds it to the player's hand, and asks the player if he wants another card. The dealing process repeats as long as the user continues to accept cards, or until the cards in the deck run out. Card dealing involves copying the available card from the deck vector to another vector, which stores the player's hand, at the next available position. Assume that the deck of cards consists of only 10 cards with numerical values from 1 to 10, which the player will enter by keyboard before the program deals. The following functions must be implemented/used: enterDeckValues. - This…arrow_forwardWelcome to the era of Aladdin and the great magic lamp. This is 1st of January and Aladdin will be in jail for one year. He was recently caught for helping forty thieves. Now he has nothing to do. But he knows that Jasmine is waiting for him. At some point he got an idea to give Jasmine a magical program that can find intervals of months from a year. This allows her to easily determine how long it will take for Aladdin to get out. Then Aladdin rubs the magic lamp and The Genie appears. Then he asked The Genie to make such a magical program. Unfortunately the Genie doesn't know programming and he wants your help to create that magical program. Genie will give you N as the day of the year and you have to print in which month that day is.

Create a program that will play the “cows and bulls” game with the user. The game works like this: Randomly generate a 4-digit number. Ask the user to guess a 4-digit number. For every digit the user guessed correctly in the correct place, they have a “cow”. For every digit the user guessed correctly in the wrong place is a “bull.” Every time the user makes a guess, tell them how many “cows” and “bulls” they have. Once the user guesses the correct number, the game is over. Keep track of the number of guesses the user makes throughout the game and tell the user at the end.arrow_forward

A standard science experiment is to drop a ball and see how high it bounces. Once the “bounciness” of the ball has been determined, the ratio gives a bounciness index. For example, if a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6, and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10 ft + 6 ft +6 ft + 3.6 ft = 25.6 ft. Note that the distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up. Write a program that lets the user enter the initial height from which the ball is dropped, the bounciness index, and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball. Below is an example of the program input and output: Enter the height from which the ball is dropped: 25 Enter the bounciness index of the ball: .5 Enter the…arrow_forwardIn Java, is there a simple way of doing this without having to use so many If statements? please explain A client wants to purchase drinks for an event they are arranging.

If the user enters an invalid or negative value for their budget or an invalid response for whether alcohol is allowed, it should indicate an error and let the user try again.
