Read the following short scenario, then answer the question that follows: Jane wants to become a doctor. If Jane obtains an average of 90% for Maths in her final exams, she will be admitted to the qualification, however, if she obtains an average of more than 85% but less than 90% for Maths and an overall average of 90% for all her subjects, she will still be able to study medicine but will have to complete a BSc degree first. Q.2.8.1. Write the pseudocode that will accurately reflect the logic contained in the above scenario.

You are given an exam with questions numbered 1, 2, 3, . . . , n. Each question i is worth pi points and has a frustration score fi . You must answer the questions in order, but you may choose to skip some questions. The reason you might choose to do this is that even though you can solve any individual question i and obtain the ???? points, some questions are so frustrating that after solving them you will be unable to solve any of the following fi questions. Suppose that you are given the pi and fi values for all the questions as input. Devise an efficient algorithm you can for choosing a set of questions to answer that maximizes your total points, and compute its asymptotic worst case running time as a function of n.
Three persons P1, P2, and P3 were invited by their friend F to make some smørbrød (sandwich made of bread, eggs, and tomato) together. To make a portion of smørbrød, three ingredients are needed: a slice of bread, a slice of tomato, and a slice of an egg. Each of these persons P1, P2, P3 has only one type of each of the ingredients: person P1 has slices of bread person P2 has slices of tomato; person P3 has slices of egg. We assume that persons P1, P2, and P3 each has an unlimited supply of these ingredients (i.e., slices of bread, slices of tomato, slices of egg), respectively. Their friend F, who invited them, also has an unlimited supply of all the ingredients. Here is what happens: the host F puts two random ingredients on the table. Then the invited person who has the third ingredient picks up these other two ingredients, and makes the smørbrød (i.e., takes a slice of bread, puts on it a slice of tomato, and puts on top a slice of egg), and then eats the smørbrød. The host of…

Computer Science Investing in stocks is a way to create assets that are supposed to provide financial security over time. In solving this problem, we assume that an investor buys several shares of stock at a certain price. These shares are going to be sold later on for a different price. Obviously, if the selling price is higher than the acquisition price, the investor makes a profit, registering capital gain. If the shares are sold at a lower price, the investor has a loss, which marks a negative capital gain. This whole process is done over a period of time, and you are required to create a scenario for buying and selling shares. The assumption is that the investor sells shares in the order in which they were purchased. The goal is to calculate the capital gain over time. Suppose that you buy n shares of stock or mutual fund for d dollars each. Later, you sell some of these shares. If the sale price exceeds the purchase price, you have made a profit—a capital gain. On the other…
Penalty kicks in soccer. Let's consider a situation where a football player has to faceoff the goalkeeper in a penalty kickoff. Standing infront of the goalpost, the Kicker (player 1) has several angle which he could kick the ball to the goalpost. Let's say he could kick the ball in the Left corner of the goalpost, Right corner of the goalpost or shoot straight through the Center. And, same as the player, the goalkeeper (player 2) also has three options to predict which direction the player would kick the ball and try to stop it. This game can be represented using the following 3 x 3 matrix: Left Center Right 63 37 94 95 Left 100' 100 100' 100 100' 100 100. 6 100' 100 91 9 94 Center 100' 100 100' 100 94 6 93 7 60 40 Right 100' 100 100' 100 100' 100 In the above matrix, the payoff of the kicker is the probability that he scores and the payoff of the goalkeeper is the probability that the kicker doesn't score. We know that the total probability of an event is 1, therefore, all the…
A group of firends Anna (A), Bjorn (B), Candice (C), David (D) and Ellen (E) want to enter a basketball contest that caters for teams of different sizes. A team with n players is called an n-team. A player can be in several different teams, including teams of the same size. There is a restriction however: players in a 2-team cannot polay together in any larger team. For example, if friends A,B,C,D form the teams AB, BCD, ACD, then they cannot also form the teams BD or ABC, among others. The five friends want to enter 8 teams including at least one 2-team and at least one 3-team and no team of any other size. Find three ways of doing this with a different number of 3-teams in each case.
Every campus has full time students who attend classes between 8h00 and 17h00 during the week. Every campus also has part time students who attend classes between 18h00 and 21h00 on weekdays. In the scenario provided at the beginning of Q.1.1, it is stated that no student should be allowed to access the campus after 12h00. The campus has decided to change this rule to state “no full-time student will be allowed to access the campus after 12h00. Part time students can access the campus as from 17h00”.Q.2.1 By making use of a class diagram, demonstrate how the concept of inheritance can be used to represent the scenario provided at the beginning of this question. Marks will be awarded as follow:Q.2.1.1 Class diagram showing inheritance; Q.2.1.2 Attributes; Q.2.1.3 Instance methods; Q.2.1.4 Access specifiers.
