Consider the following program that counts the number of spaces in a user-supplied string. Modify the program to define and use a function, countSpaces, instead. def main() : userInput = input("Enter a string: ") spaces = 0 for char in userInput : if char == " " : spaces = spaces + 1 print(spaces) main()

Write a program that reads in a line consisting of a students name, Social Security number, user ID, and password. The program outputs the string in which all the digits of the Social Security number and all the characters in the password are replaced by x. (The Social Security number is in the form 000-00-0000, and the user ID and the password do not contain any spaces.) Your program should not use the operator [] to access a string element. Use the appropriate functions described in Table 7-1.
(Numerical) Write a program that tests the effectiveness of the rand() library function. Start by initializing 10 counters to 0, and then generate a large number of pseudorandom integers between 0 and 9. Each time a 0 occurs, increment the variable you have designated as the zero counter; when a 1 occurs, increment the counter variable that’s keeping count of the 1s that occur; and so on. Finally, display the number of 0s, 1s, 2s, and so on that occurred and the percentage of the time they occurred.
(Numerical) Using the srand() and rand() C++ library functions, fill an array of 1000 floating-point numbers with random numbers that have been scaled to the range 1 to 100. Then determine and display the number of random numbers having values between 1 and 50 and the number having values greater than 50. What do you expect the output counts to be?
The program in the Programming Example: Fibonacci Number does not check whether the first number entered by the user is less than or equal to the second number and whether both the numbers are non-negative. Also, the program does not check whether the user entered a valid value for the position of the desired number in the Fibonacci sequence. Rewrite that program so that it checks for these things.
(Numerical) Write and test a function that returns the position of the largest and smallest values in an array of double-precision numbers.
(Program) Using the at() function, write a C++ program that reads in a string by using getline() and then displays the string in reverse order. (Hint: After the string has been entered and saved, retrieve and display characters, starting from the end of the string.)
(Numerical) Given a one-dimensional array of integer numbers, write and test a function that displays the array elements in reverse order.
A structure that allows repeated execution of a block of statements is a(n) _____________. sequence selection array loop
(Numerical) a. The following is an extremely useful programming algorithm for rounding a real number to n decimal places: Step 1: Multiply the number by 10n Step 2: Add 0.5 Step 3: Delete the fractional part of the result Step 4: Divide by 10n For example, using this algorithm to round the number 78.374625 to three decimal places yields: Step1:78.374625103=78374.625 Step2:78374.625+0.5=78375.125 Step3:Retainingtheintegerpart=78375Step4:78375dividedby103=78.375 Using this algorithm, write a C++ function that accepts a user-entered value and returns the result rounded to two decimal places. b. Enter, compile, and run the program written for Exercise 11a.
(Data processing) A bank’s customer records are to be stored in a file and read into a set of arrays so that a customer’s record can be accessed randomly by account number. Create the file by entering five customer records, with each record consisting of an integer account number (starting with account number 1000), a first name (maximum of 10 characters), a last name (maximum of 15 characters), and a double-precision number for the account balance. After the file is created, write a C++ program that requests a user-input account number and displays the corresponding name and account balance from the file.
(Statistical) In many statistical analysis programs, data values considerably outside the range of the majority of values are simply dropped from consideration. Using this information, write a C++ program that accepts up to 10 floating-point values from a user and determines and displays the average and standard deviation of the input values. All values more than four standard deviations away from the computed average are to be displayed and dropped from any further calculation, and a new average and standard deviation should be computed and displayed.
