20. Random Number Guessing GameWrite a program that generates a random number in the range of 1 through 100, and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high, try again.” If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low, try again.” If the user guesses the number, the application should congratulate the user and generate a new random number so the game can start over.Optional Enhancement: Enhance the game so it keeps count of the number of guesses that the user makes. When the user correctly guesses the random number, the program should display the number of guesses.
USE RAPTOR PROGRAM
Population Tracker
Learning Objective: Using Python Repetition and Loop Statements
Problem Description
Write a Python program (Console and GUI) that predicts the approximate size of a population of organisms.
The application should use text boxes to allow the user to enter the following information:
starting number of organisms,
the average daily population increase (as a percentage), and
the number of days the organisms will be left to multiply.
For example, assume the user enters the following values:
Starting number of organisms: 2
Average daily increase: 30%
Number of days to multiply: 10
The program should display the following table of data
Retail price calculator
Write a program that asks the user to enter an item’s wholesale cost and its markup percentage. It should then display the item’s retail price. For example:
• If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 100 percent, then the item’s retail price is 10.00.• If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 50 percent, then the item’s retail price is 7.50.
The program should have a method named calculateRetail that receives the wholesale cost and the markup percentage as arguments and returns the retail price of the item.

- GPA Calculator Students are concerned about their GPA. They need to calculate it accurately every semester to monitor their progress. Develop a GPA calculator that follows the AOU regulations (AOU-OU Grade Scale) using C# programming language. The application asks the student to enter his numeric grade of each course and the course's credit hours. Accordingly, the application calculates the student's GPA after converting the numeric grade to letter grade. The GPA calculation should produce floating-point results. Display the results rounded to the nearest hundredth. You should store the letter grades of all student's courses in an array. The final grade of the student should be also calculated. Sample I/O Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 93 Enter the course credit hours: 3 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 74 Enter the course credit hours: 2 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 60 Enter the course credit hours: 3 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): -1 The grades of your courses…arrow_forwardTime CalculatorWrite a program that asks the user to enter a number of seconds.-There are 60 seconds in a minute.

If the number of seconds entered by the user is greater than or equal to 3,600, the program should display the number of hours, minutes, and leftover seconds in that many seconds.-There are 86,400 seconds in a day. If the number of seconds entered by the user is greater than or equal to 86,400, the program should display the number of days, hours, minutes, and leftover seconds in that many seconds.arrow_forwardC# Account numbers sometimes contain a check digit that is the result of a mathematical calculation. The inclusion of the digit in an account number helps ascertain whether the number is a valid one. Write an application named CheckDigit that asks a user to enter a four-digit account number and determines whether it is a valid number. The number is valid if the fourth digit is the remainder when the number represented by the first three digits of the four-digit number is divided by 7. For example, 7770 is valid, because 0 is the remainder when 777 is divided by 7. If the account number is valid, output The account number is valid. If the account number is invalid output Invalid. If the account number is too short or too long output Account number invalid - it must have 4 digits.arrow_forward
