Problem Description:
The bird of paradise called the Helipixsal is renowned for its magnificent tail feathers which range in number from five to
nine ornate feathers each of a different length. Their "magnificence" is quantified by the rather simple process of
counting the exact number of tail feathers and multiplying this by the difference in the length of the minimum and
maximum lengths of tail feather.
You are to write a simple program that will allow the user to enter the length of each tail feather individually and keep on
entering feathers until a -1 is entered. The program will then return the quantified "magnificence" factor.

During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forward
- Write a wholly creative quiz program that consists of three original questions that you make up according to these specifications: One question should require user input of type int One question should require user input of type float One should require a string input The quiz should be scored by using a counter variable that has an initial value of zero and is incremented by one for every correct answer. Provide feedback to the user for each question, and report the total score when the quiz has finished. Example runs not shown. It's a creative exercise. def main():points = 0states = int(input('How many states in the USA? '))if states == 50:points +=1print('Correct.

The payroll clerk will initially input the data, and given the input data, an employee's wage for the week should be displayed on the screen for the payroll check. The data for the employee includes the employee's hourly pay rate and the number of hours worked that week. Wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked (up to 40 hours). If the employee worked more than 40 hours, wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times 40 hours plus 1½ times the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked above 40. Instructions: Match the action at the left-side with the correct step number at the right-side (the attached picture). Note that it may be possible to group more than one related actions in the same logical step / process without altering the essence of the algorithm. In the program flow, input and checking of hourly pay rate should come before that of the number…arrow_forwardusing c++ Write a program that computes and displays the charges for a patient's hospital stay. First, the program should ask if the patient was admitted as an in-patient or an out-patient. If the patient was an in-patient, the following data should be entered: The number of days spent in the hospital The daily rate Hospital medication charges Charges for hospital services (lab test, etc.) The program should ask for the following data if the patient was an out-patient: Charges for the hospital services (lab test, etc.) Hospital medication charges The program should use two functions to calculate the total charges. One of the functions should accept arguments for the in-patient data, while the other function accepts arguments for out-patient information. Both functions should return the total charges.arrow_forward
- IN PYTHON PLEASE AND FLOWCHART DRAWING COMPUTERIZED PLEASE!! In many businesses across the country, people are buying food and goods using cash. Whenever a purchase is made with cash, it is usual that change must be back to the customer. Business point of sales software help to ensure that the correct change is return to a customer by providing detailed information of the change that should be returned to the customer. using the fewest number of bills and coins. In this assignment, you are asked to design and implement a program that writes out what bills (ones, fives, tens, twenties) and coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters) that should be returned to the customer given two inputs from the user: A total cost of a sale. The amount that was paid by the customer. Ensure that your output is grammatically correct. If the customer does not provide adequate payment, you should print the following statement, the program should end. Did not receive enough cash from the customer.…arrow_forwardIn CORAL LANGUAGE please and thank you! Summary: Given integer values for red, green, and blue, subtract the gray from each value. Computers represent color by combining the sub-colors red, green, and blue (rgb). Each sub-color's value can range from 0 to 255. Thus (255, 0, 0) is bright red, (130, 0, 130) is a medium purple, (0, 0, 0) is black, (255, 255, 255) is white, and (40, 40, 40) is a dark gray. (130, 50, 130) is a faded purple, due to the (50, 50, 50) gray part. (In other words, equal amounts of red, green, blue yield gray). Given values for red, green, and blue, remove the gray part. Ex: If the input is: 130 50 130 the output is: 80 0 80 Hint: Find the smallest value, and then subtract it from all three values, thus removing the gray.arrow_forwardPart 4: For circle, square and annulus write a program to find the area, perimeter (or circumference) for a range of parametric values given by the user and plot the corresponding shapes in the range given. User needs to identify lower and upper values of each parameter. The identified range for the parameters should be then divided into 10 monotonic steps inside your program. Accordingly, you need to calculate the values and plot the shapes corresponding to all 10 values in the range identified by the user. The program should plot the geometries in the first quadrant.arrow_forward
- A Fibonacci Number sequence is the series of numbers: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ... The next number is calculated by adding up the two numbers before it. Write a program called fib.cpp. The program will print out the n" Fibonacci Numbers using a function called: void FibonacciNumber (int n, int& fib_no) This function will calculate the n term in the Fibonacci Numbers and return in fib_no. By definition, the function returns 0 for n=1, and returns 1 for n = 2. For the subsequence number: nth = (n - 2)th + (n - 1)th You need to verify the input n > 0. Task 2 Sample Output Please enter the nth term Fibonacci number to compute: -1 Please enter a number greater than 0! Please enter the nth term Fibonacci number to compute: 12 The Fibonacci series is: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89 The 12th. term is: 89arrow_forwardneed help!arrow_forwardQUESTION 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 10arrow_forward
