Write a program that asks for the names of three runners and the time it took each of them to ﬁnish a race. The program should display who came in ﬁrst, second, and third place. Think about how many test cases are needed to verify that your problem works correctly. (That is, how many different ﬁnish orders are possible?) Input Validation: Only allow the program to accept positive numbers for the times.

The cost of renting a room at a hotel is, say $100.00 per night. For special occasions, such as a wedding or conference, the hotel offers a special discount as follows: If the number of rooms booked at least 10, the discount is 10%; at least 20, the discount is 20%; and at least 30, the discount is 30%. Also if rooms are booked for at least three days, then there is an additional 5% discount. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the cost of renting one room, the number of rooms booked, the number of days the rooms are booked, and the sales tax (as a percent). The program outputs the cost of renting one room, the discount on each room as a percent, the number of rooms booked, the number of days the rooms are booked, the total cost of the rooms, the sales tax, and the total billing amount. Your program must use appropriate named constants to store special values such as various discounts.
Indicate whether the argument is valid or invalid. For valid arguments, prove that the argument is valid using a truth table. For invalid arguments, give truth values for the variables showing that the argument is not valid.
Assignment Write a program that tracks how much steps the user walks in total in a day and reports if the daily target is reached or not. The program will keep reading double values, each representing steps walked during an individual activity within a day (stepsWalked) until either the user enters a negative value or the daily target of 5000 steps is met. If the user enters a negative number, the program should print total steps walked as a double. Otherwise, if the target is exactly reached, the program should simply print "Target is reached", finally if the target is surpassed the program should print the text "Target is surpassed by", followed by the excess amount above the target as a double, and finally printing the text "steps". NOTE: You MUST use a repetitive statement in this question. NOTE: Each stepsWalked value will be given as a non-negative value. You do NOT need to check this. Input Output Answer assignment 3000 1300 500 2305.2 Target is surpassed by 2105.2 steps 450…
Ask the user for a name and for a list of test scores. Show the number of tests taken and the average. Allow the user to enter any number of scores and make the program end when a negative value is entered. Use test case 1 & 2 for result
QUICK-BASIC64 In a 50-person class, students with grades below 70 are considered unsuccessful. Write an algorithm that calculates students who fail the exam. (Please explain everything the program in details and please check whether the program runs or not by using q- basic64. Thank you so much)
Exercise II Write a program that finds the positive integer solutions of the following equation ax³ + bx² + cx' + d = 0. The user enters the values of coefficients a, b, c and d. The program should test each integer starting from -50 to 50, and each time the equation is equal to zero, it prints its value as well as "is a solution". At the end, it displays the total number of positive integers found. Note that if the equation has more than one solution, the plural word “solutions" is used in the output. Sample run 1: Enter the coefficient of a, b, c, d: 1 -8.5 21 -13.5 1 is a solution 3 is a solution The equation has 2 integers as solutions Sample run 2: Enter the coefficient of a, b, c, d: 6 48 103.5 67.5 The equation has no integer solutions Sample run 3: Enter the coefficient of a, b, c, d: 1 -1 -12 0 4 is a solution The equation has 1 integer solution
QUESTION 5 This is a MULTIPLE ANSWER question, which means you are able to select one or more answers as being correct. Note that this does not necessarily mean that there are multiple correct answers. In any case, select all the answers you believe are correct. (NB: There are no part marks awarded for multiple answer questions.) Consider the following Python code, where the variables level and threshold have integer values: alarm = 3 if level = threshold: if level < 100: alarm = 1 alarm = 2 What initial values for variables level and threshold guarantee that variable alarm ends up with the value of 2 after the code has executed? When level is 200 and threshold is 99 When level is 4 and threshold is 5 ☐ When level is 200 and threshold is 100 When level is 400 and threshold is 300 When level is 5 and threshold is 4 When level is 3 and threshold is 4 When level is 1 and threshold is 2 O When level is 10 and threshold is 10
Problem Description: In the Whimsical Library, each book is enchanted with a magical code to ensure the protection of knowledge. The validation process for these magical codes involves a combination of mathematical spells. The validation process is described as follows: Take the sum of the digits at odd positions from left to right. Take the sum of the squared digits at even positions from left to right. If the absolute difference between the results from step 1 and step 2 is a prime number, the book code is considered valid; otherwise, it is invalid. Example 1: Consider the magical book code 86420137. Step 1. Take the sum of the digits at odd positions from left to right. 8+4+0+3=15 Step 2. Take the sum of the squared digits at even positions from left to right. 6^2+2^2+1^2+7^2=36+4+1+49 = 90 Step 3. If the absolute difference between the results from step 1 and step 2 is a prime number. 115-901 75 (not a prime number) Book code 86420137 is invalid. Example 2: Now, let's examine the…
4) Roll the dice 2 Make a program that tests the probability of a certain score when rolling x dice. The user should be able to choose to roll eg 4 dice and test the probability of a selected score eg 11. The program should then do a number of simulations and answer how big the probability is for the selected score with as many dice selected. There must be error checks so that you cannot enter incorrect sums, for example, it is not possible to get the sum 3 if you roll 4 dice. TarningsKast2 How many dices do you want to throw? 11 Which number do you want the probability for? The probability the get the number 11 with 4 dices is 7.19% Calculate
