Pick a number, any number (actually, make it a positive integer). Now, let's play a game. If your number is even, divide it by 2. If it is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1. Repeat this process with your new number. Repeat over and over again. Lothar Collatz in 1937 guessed that this process will always eventually end at the number 1. Write a Matlab function file that takes an input n (assume the user enters a positive integer) and runs through the Collatz process until a 1 is reached. The function should output count, the number of iterations necessary to reach 1. As a test, your code should report that 63 iterations are necessary if we start with the number 2020.

Given an input string, delete recursively all the duplicate adjacent characters and return a string where all those adjacent characters that are the same have been reduced to just a single character. Do not use any loops. Do not use any regular expressions and methods such as matches, split, replaceAlI. Test case 1: delDuplicate("aaabbc") "abc" Test case 2: delDuplicate("aaaaa") "a"
Write a function that does the following for the given values: add, subtract, divide and multiply. These are simply referred to as the basic arithmetic operations. The variables have to be defined, but in this challenge they will be defined for you. All you have to do is check the variables, do some string to integer conversions, use some if conditions, and apply the arithmetic operation. Examples operation ("1", "2", operation ("4", "5", operation ("6", "3", "add" ) → 3 "subtract") → -1 "divide") → 2

Write a program that defines n to be a random positive integer between 1and 100 (use randi). If n is even, the script file defines the variable S to beS = 2 + 4 + 6 + · · · + notherwise the script file defines the variable S to beS = 1 + 3 + 5 + · · · + n.Do not use the MATLAB built-in function sum. Instead calculate S using a loop (Matlab)
Write a python program. Add a function called reverse() that outputs a DNA strand in reverse. Example: reverse(AATC) returns CTAA Note: you should not use the built-in reverse method.
Perform error checking for the data point entries. If any of the following errors occurs, output the appropriate error message and prompt again for a valid data point. If entry has no comma Output: Error: No comma in string. If entry has more than one comma Output: Error: Too many commas in input. If entry after the comma is not an integer Output: Error: Comma not followed by an integer. Ex: Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway 9 Error: No comma in string. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest, Hemingway, 9 Error: Too many commas in input. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway, nine Error: Comma not followed by an integer. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway, 9 Data string: Ernest Hemingway Data integer: 9
Write a Python program that will generate 1000 random numbers between 1 and 100 inclusive from the random generator. For each value returned from the random generator, keep a count of the number of even numbers generated and the number of odd numbers generated. Use the following functions within this program: - getRandom(): this function will call the random generator and return the generated integer value. - isOdd(): this function will return true or false depending on whether the number generated is odd or even. - update(): this function will update the counters for odd or even. - display(): once the program has completed 1000 random numbers, the counters for the number of odd and even will be displayed. REQUIREMENTS: - Add a beginning statement when the program starts to execute. - Add an ending statement when the program is complete. - Call the random generator 1000 times for a randomly generated number between…

We can assign a value to each character in a word, based on their position in the alphabet (a = 1, b = 2, ..., z = 26). A balanced word is one where the sum of values on the left-hand side of the word equals the sum of values on the right-hand side. For odd length words, the middle character (balance point) is ignored. Write a function that returns true if the word is balanced, and false if it's not. Examples balanced ("zips") → true // "zips" = "zi|ps" = 26+9|16+19 = 35|35 = true balanced ("brake") // "brake" = "br|ke" false = 2+18 | 11+5 = 20 16 = false
