The annual snake festival is upon us and all the snakes of the kingdom have gathered to participate in the parade. The chef was tasked with reporting on the parade, so he decided to watch all the snakes first. When he sees the snake first, it will be his head, so he marks the "H". Snakes are long, and when they see the snake finally scurry away, they mark its tail with a "T". In the interim, when the snake is moving around it, or in the time between one snake and the next snake, it marks a '.'. Since the snakes come in a procession and one by one, a valid message would be something like "..H..T...HTH....T.", or "...", or "HT", while "T...H..H.T", "H..T..H", "H..H..T..T" would be invalid messages (see explanation below). Formally, a snake is represented by an 'H' followed by some (possibly null) '.' and then 'T'. A valid message is one that begins with the (probably zero-length) string '.' and then some (possibly zero) snakes, with some '.'s in between, and finally some (possibly zero) '.'s. The chef was devouring the festival food and was very sleepy. So his message may be invalid. You have to help him find out if his message is valid or not. Note: Python Programming Answer Required

Question

The annual snake festival is upon us and all the snakes of the kingdom have
gathered to participate in the parade. The chef was tasked with reporting on the
parade, so he decided to watch all the snakes first. When he sees the snake first, it
will be his head, so he marks the "H". Snakes are long, and when they see the
snake finally scurry away, they mark its tail with a "T". In the interim, when the
snake is moving around it, or in the time between one snake and the next snake, it
marks a '.'.
Since the snakes come in a procession and one by one, a valid message would be
something like "..H..T...HTH....T.", or "...", or "HT", while "T ...H..H.T", "H..T..H",
"H..H..T..T" would be invalid messages (see explanation below).
Formally, a snake is represented by an 'H' followed by some (possibly null) '.' and
then 'T'. A valid message is one that begins with the (probably zero-length) string
'.' and then some (possibly zero) snakes, with some '.'s in between, and finally
some (possibly zero) '.'s.
The chef was devouring the festival food and was very sleepy. So his message
may be invalid. You have to help him find out if his message is valid or not.

A quaker was walking down a country road when he was suddenly confronted by a robber brandishing a pistol. The robber exclaimed, "Your money or your life!" My friend replied, "I cannot deliver my money because I should be aiding thee in evildoing, but exchange is lawful, and I will give thee my purse for the pistol." The thief consented to accept the purse, then the quaker pointed the gun to the robber's head and said, "Now buddy, give me back my pocketbook or the weapon may go off fire," according to the robber.
Write an Arduino program that simulates a robot car using: • Two gear motors (DC motors) • One motor driver • A servo motor The car should move forward, stop for a one second, and then move backward (this process should be repeated continuously). When the car is moving forward the servo motor should rotate from angle 0 to angle 180 and back from angle 180 to angle 0. When the car stops or is moving backward the servo motor should stop rotating. Hello i need the solution using arduino c language as soon as possible
You are trying to build an autonomous robot that can play different card games based on the French deck. But before building the robot, you need to develop an approach to recognise all the cards in a French deck. A French deck consists of 52 cards, which can be categorised into four groups based on their suits: spades (4), hearts (♥), diamonds (+), and clubs (+). Each suit consists numbers from 1 to 10, and three court cards: jack, queen, and king. You had lay down all the cards on a white colour desktop, arranged them nicely before snapping a photo. After some pre-processing, the photo that you obtained is shown in Figure 2. A> >> . ** ← •N ve → → > > > ◆N ←N ◆ . • ► H Figure 2 Assume that you have successfully isolated each card, describe three descriptors that can be used to differentiate the cards. Your description may consist of the following: • Condition(s) that must be fulfilled before applying the descriptor. • How to find or extract the descriptor. Why the descriptor can help…

A pistol-wielding robber approached a Quaker on a rural road. "Your money or your life!" shouted the thief. "Exchange is allowed, and I will offer thee my purse for the weapon," my buddy said. The thief accepted the handbag, then the quaker held the pistol to his head and said, "Now friend, give me back my pocketbook or the weapon may go off fire," according to the robber.
