Create a python program called code.py.
Write a function named pi_multiples() that takes an integer parameter num. This
function repeatedly asks the user to enter an integer between 2 and 50. Assume the
user will always enter an integer, but if the number is outside this range, the loop
must end. So, for any integer x entered within the range, your function must do the
following; if x is divisible by num (the parameter), it must multiply x by the value of pi
(call it result) and maintain a sum of these results. In every iteration of the loop your
function must print x and the result. And when the loop terminates your function
should return the sum.
To test your function, call pi_multiples() function using any integer number of your
choice (for num) and print the returned value.
Hint: to use the pi value do the following
import math and use math.pi for the value of pi.

Slot Machine Simulation
A slot machine is a gambling device into which the user inserts money and then pulls a lever (or presses a button). The slot machine then displays a set of random images. If two or more of the images match, the user wins an amount of money that the slot machine dispenses back to the user.
Create an application that simulates a slot machine. Figure 8-23 (on page 539 of your book) shows an example of how the form should look. The application should let the user enter into a TextBox the amount of money he or she is inserting into the machine. When the user clicks the Spin button, the application should display three randomly selected symbols. (Slot machines traditionally display fruit symbols. You will find a set of fruit symbols attached to this dropbox for your use - from the Student Sample Programs provided by the book author.)
If none of the randomly displayed images match, the program should inform the user that he or she has won…

They want to know some statistics about the temperature in Sahara, but sometimes their thermometer fails to record the proper temperature. Help them to find which temperature is from correct recordings and which is broken and calculate statistics on given data. During the night, the temperature in Sahara varies from -4 to -10 С. During the day, the temperature varies from 20 to 50 C. Create a function check_input(temperature) that will return True if the temperature given as input can be from Sahara and False if it is from a broken thermometer (i.e., outside of the expected range).

- Open the Calories Solution.sln file contained in the VB2017\Chap08\Calories Solution folder. Open the Code Editor window and locate the btnDisplay_Click procedure. The procedure declares and initializes a one-dimensional array named intCalories. The array stores the numbers of daily calories consumed. The procedure should calculate and display the average number of calories consumed; use the Math.Round method to round the average to an integer. (You learned about the Math.Round method in Chapter 6.) The procedure should also display the number of days in which the daily calories were greater than the average, the number of days in which the daily calories were the same as the average, and the number of days in which the daily calories were less than the average. Code the procedure. Save the solution and then start and test the application.arrow_forwardIn this exercise, you modify the Grade Calculator application from this chapter’s Apply lesson. Use Windows to make a copy of the Grade Solution folder. Rename the copy Grade Solution-Intermediate. Open the Grade Solution.sln file contained in the Grade Solution-Intermediate folder. Open the CourseGrade.vb file. The DetermineGrade method should accept an integer that represents the total number of points that can be earned in the course. (Currently, the total number of points is 200: 100 points per test.) For an A grade, the student must earn at least 90% of the total points. For a B, C, and D grade, the student must earn at least 80%, 70%, and 60%, respectively. If the student earns less than 60% of the total points, the grade is F. Make the appropriate modifications to the DetermineGrade method and then save the solution. Unlock the controls on the form. Add a label control and a text box to the form. Change the label control’s Text property to “&Maximum points:” (without the quotation marks). Change the text box’s name to txtMax. Lock the controls and then reset the tab order. Open the form’s Code Editor window. The txtMax control should accept only numbers and the Backspace key. Code the appropriate procedure. The grade should be cleared when the user makes a change to the contents of the txtMax control. Code the appropriate procedure. Modify the frmMain_Load procedure so that each list box displays numbers from 0 through 200. Locate the btnDisplay_Click procedure. If the txtMax control does not contain a value, display an appropriate message. The maximum number allowed in the txtMax control should be 400; if the control contains a number that is more than 400, display an appropriate message. The statement that calculates the grade should pass the maximum number of points to the studentGrade object’s DetermineGrade method. Make the necessary modifications to the procedure. Save the solution and then start and test the application.arrow_forwardLap Timer Tool Write a Python (GUI program) that asks the user to enter the number of times that they have run around a racetrack, and then uses a loop to prompt them to enter the lap time for each of their laps.

There will be four acceptable user-password combinations: • alpha-alpha1 • beta-beta1 • gamma-gamma1 • delta - delta1 If the user types in one of the correct username-password combinations, then the program will output: "Login successful."

(The Premium CompanionWebsite can be found at www.pearsonglobaleditions.com/gaddis.) The steps.txt filecontains the number of steps a person has taken each day for a year. There are 365 linesin the file, and each line contains the number of steps taken during a day. (The first line isthe number of steps taken on January 1st, the second line is the number of steps taken onJanuary 2nd, and so forth.)
