Chapter 4, Problem 15PP
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 test

Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where
the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following function:
getScore
This function ask the user for a test score, store
it in a
reference parameter variable, and validate it. For input validation, do
not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100. This
function
should be called by main() once for each of the five scores
to be
entered.
calcAverage
This function calculates and display the average of
the four highest score. This function should be called just once by
main(), by should be passed the five scores.
• findLowest
This function finds and returns the lowest of the five
scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage function,
which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop.
In python, write a function that receives three parameters: name, weight, and height. The default value for name is James. The function calculates the BMI and returns it. BMI is: weight/(height^2). Weight should be in kg and height should be in meters. For instance, if the weight is 60 kg and the height is 1.7 m, then the BMI should be 20.76. The function should print the name and BMI. The function should return 'BMI is greater than 22' if the MBI is greater than or equal to 22. Otherwise, the function should return 'BMI is less than 22'. Call the function and print its output.

- Write a function count_evens() that has four integer parameters, and returns the count of parameters where the value is an even number (i.e. evenly divisible by 2). Ex: If the four parameters are: 1 22 11 40 then the returned count will be: 2 Hint: Use the modulo operator % to determine if each number is even or odd. Your program must define the function:count_evens(num1, num2, num3, num4) python # Define your function here if __name__ == '__main__': num1 = int(input()) num2 = int(input()) num3 = int(input()) num4 = int(input()) result = count_evens(num1, num2, num3, num4) print('Total evens:', result)arrow_forwardWrite a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores.

- thello is a board game and you are expected to implement the move function for this game. Arguments passed to the function are - a symbol of the player making the move and x y coordinates of the cell at which the player wishes to make the move. The move function will be returning a boolean, false - if the move isn't feasible and true - if the move is feasible and this function will also make the move then i.e. make the required changes in the board. Input Format: Line 1: Integer n (Total number of moves) Line 2: Player 1 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Line 3: Player 2 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Note 1: Number of moves (i.e. n) is always even and Player 1 always starts the game. Note 2: If any player's coordinates are not valid, enter again till the right move. Main function is given for you reference.

This function has parameters for the players number (which will be either 1 or 2), and the number of sticks remaining on the board. For this function you will need to do the following: Use the input function to get the player to type in their selection. Validate the user’s input, printing out a message if they enter an invalid number and continually prompting them until they do enter a valid number. The user may enter any number between 1 and 3, unless there are fewer than 3 sticks remaining, in which case they can only enter between 1 and the number of sticks remaining. As in the example, the input prompt should list the valid range of numbers. Return the (validated) number as an integer (not a string). You should test that this function works by running it in the REPL. Make sure you try different scenarios, like the user entering an invalid number multiple times in a row. After you are done testing and fixing any errors you find,…arrow_forwardA prime number is an integer value that is only divisible by 1 and itself. 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11 are examples of prime numbers. You have been provided with two function definitions: The is_prime () function takes an integer parameter number, and returns True if number is prime and False otherwise. The get_next_prime () function also takes a single integer parameter number, and returns the first prime number larger than it. You must not change the implementation of these 2 functions. Complete the get_primes_list() function that takes a single list of integers called numbers as parameter. You can assume that the integer items in this list will be non-negative. The function must update this list so that items that are not prime numbers are updated to the first prime number larger than them. To implement this function you must call both the is_prime () and get_next_prime () functions. Some examples of the function being called are shown below. Note: the get_primes_list() function does not…arrow_forward
- Write a function called numberCompare. This function takes in two parameters (both numbers). If the first parameter is greater than the second, this function returns "First is Greater". If the second parameter is greater than the first, this function returns "Second is Greater" Else the function returns "Numbers are Equal".

If there is no uppercase letter in the string, then the function will return -1.Example: Function call findFirstUpper("best course is CS104!") will return 15 (index of the 'C').Example: Function call findFirstUpper("good morning!") will return -1 CODEE:PYTHONarrow_forwardWrite a C++ prorgam with a function named getRandomMidpoint. This function should accept two arguments just like getMidpoint (getMidpoint. This function takes two int parameters, and returns the midpoint of the two integers. It has the following signature: int getMidpoint(int low, int high). But it should return a random number in between the low and high arguments. You can swap this function with the getMidpoint function to change the nature of how the program makes its guesses. Make sure to show output of your program using both getMidpoint and getRandomMidpoint showing different behaviors. Don't forget to add a call to srand() at the beginning of your program in main() to make sure each run of the program generates new "random" numbers.arrow_forward
- Some of the earliest computer games developed were Interactive Fiction games, in which the user’s environment is described in text, and the user makes choices using text commands. In this problem and the next one, we’ll be developing a very simple text-based adventure game. Every choice in this game will have exactly three options, so we can write a function that works for any of them. Write a function selection(text, optionA, optionB, optionC), that takes in four string values. text is a string representing a prompt in a text adventure game, and optionA, optionB, and optionC are strings representing the three possible options. The function should print out the text, and then print out the options (label them with A., B., and C.). Next, the input() function should be used to prompt the user to choose A, B, or C. Then the function should return (not print) the one character string that represents the user’s choice: 'A', 'B', or 'C'. If the user does not choose one of those…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.
