Tree Age
Counting the growth rings of a tree is a good way to tell the age of a tree. Each growth ring counts as one year. Use either the Circle or Ellipse classes to draw how the growth rings of a 5-year-old tree might look. Then, using the Text shape class, number each growth ring starting from the center and working outward with the age in years associated with that ring.

Magic 8 Ball Lab
Introduction For this lab, you are going to build a simple magic eight-ball, so you no longer have to make any choices. On that note, if you haven’t, you should watch Interstate 60. All joking aside, you will build a 15 sided magic 8-ball, just for simplicity (an actual one has 20 sides for choices). If you are curious about all the choices, you can read up more on them here. Also, if you need a refresher on if statements, go here. Step 1 - Reading the code First take a look at the provided code. You should change the comments to include your name at the top of the file. Furthermore, you will notice all the functions are ‘stubbed’ out for you. This means we have provided the function signature, and a dummy return value that you will replace completely. We have also provided one function in its entirety, so you can use it as a sample/template to look at.

Road Trip
Programming challenge description:
You've decided to make a road trip across the country in a straight line. You have chosen the direction you'd like to travel and made a list of cities in that direction that have gas stations to stop at and fill up your tank. To make sure that this route is viable, you need to know the distances between the adjacent cities in order to be able to travel this distance on a single tank of gasoline, (No one likes running out of gas.) but you only know distances to each city from your starting point.
Input:
Your program should read lines from standard input. Each line contains the list of cities and distances to them, comma delimited, from the starting point of your trip. You start your trip at point 0. The cities with their distances are separated by semicolon.
Output:
Print out the distance from the starting point to the nearest city, and the distances between two nearest cities separated by comma, in order they appear on the route.

Tic-Tac-Toe
For this question, you will be implementing a simple Tic-Tac-Toe game without the graphics.
Here is how it works:
• First, it is randomly determined if the user starts the game or the computer and this
information is shown to the user. The player who starts always starts as "X".
• The players (computer and the user) will then take turns in playing. The computer will
choose a random empty spot on its turn. The user enters its choice in the console.
• Each of the empty spots have a corresponding number that the players choose on their
turn. If the user enters anything other than the number of an empty spot (not yet filled
with "X" or "O"), it will not be accepted, and they will be prompted to enter a correct
number.

• After each turn, two things need to be done: 1) displaying the updated board 2) checking
if anyone has won (it should be printed who has won – the user or the computer).
The game goes on until someone wins or until all the 9 empty spots are filled and no…

- Transcribed Image Text JAVA Programming Problem: In the game of "Assassin's Creed", you control a ship with a cannon which is attacking a large enemy Assassin's Creed, armed with many guns. Your goal is to destroy as many of the guns as possible. The battle field is a 2D Cartesian grid, where your cannon is located at the origin. The enemy Assassin's Creed is a horizontal line segment located from the coordinates (X1, Y) to (X2, Y). There are exactly (X2 - X1 + 1) guns on the ship, located at the integer points (X1, Y), (X1+1, Y), ..., (X2, Y). However, the problem is, you cannot always fire at a gun. There are supernatural rocks located at all points of the battlefield whose X and Y coordinates are both integers. In order to fire successfully at an enemy's gun, the line connecting your cannon and that gun must not go through any rocks. Develop a JAVA code to output the number of the enemy battleship's guns that your cannon can destroy.

You can use as many piles and as many stones in each pile as you want, but in order to better understand the game, we'll start off with just a few small piles of stones (see figure 1 below). Pile 1 Pile 1 Pile 2 The two players take turns removing stones from the game. On each turn, the player removing stones can only take stones from one pile, but they can remove as many stones from that pile as they want (please note, a player must remove atleast 1 stone from a pile during his/her turn). If they want, they can even remove the entire pile from the game! The winner is the player who removes the final stone (avoid taking the last stone - see figure 2 below). Pile 2 Pile 3 Pile 3 Let's say its Max (player 1) turn to play. Then Max can win by simply removing a stone from Pile 2 or Pile 3 Draw a game tree (upto depth level 2) for the given version of the Nim game.

The difference of both the time is the travel distance from one sensor to the other. We get the time in which car travels a distance of 10 meters so we can calculate the speed of the car. 10 metersarrow_forward
- Correct answer will be upvoted else downvoted. Computer science. After painting the white cells of the board, you want to place the maximum number of dominoes on it, according to the following rules: each domino covers two adjacent cells; each cell is covered by at most one domino; if a domino is placed horizontally (it covers two adjacent cells in one of the rows), it should cover only red cells; if a domino is placed vertically (it covers two adjacent cells in one of the columns), it should cover only blue cells. Let the value of the board be the maximum number of dominoes you can place. Calculate the sum of values of the board over all 2w possible ways to paint it. Since it can be huge, print it modulo 998244353. Input The first line contains two integers n and m (1≤n,m≤3⋅105; nm≤3⋅105) — the number of rows and columns, respectively. Then n lines follow, each line contains a string of m characters.

Each step, you may only walk into one of the four neighbouring squares (up, down, left, right) and you cannot walk into obstacles or walk into a square more than once. When you finish, you can get a number by writing down the digits you encounter in the same order as you meet them. For example, you can get numbers 9784, 4832145, etc. The biggest number you can get is 791452384, shown in the picture above. Your task is to find the biggest mumber you can get. Input There will be at most 25 test cases. Each test begins with two integers R and C (2 < R,C < 15, R+C < 30), the number of rows and columns of the maze. The next R rows represent the maze.

- Monty Hall Problem – Coding Lab In this lab, you will write a code that simulates the Monty Hall Game Show. Thegame host gives the participant the choice of selecting one of three doors. Twodoors has a goat behind them and one door has a prize. The set of choices arerandomized each round. The participant needs to select the door with the prizebehind it. When the participant selects a door, the game host reveals a door with agoat behind it. The game host opens a door (different from the one selected by theparticipant) that has a goat behind it. The participant is then given the option tochange their choice. When you run your code, the code would display a message prompting the user toinput their door choice, labelled as 1, 2, and 3. Then the code will display a doornumber (different from the one the user picked) with a goat behind it and ask theuser if they would like to change their choice.

Incorrect downvote also.arrow_forwardGame Description: Pig is a game that has two players (in our case one human and one computer) that alternate turns. Each player’s goal is to get 100 points rolled on a normal six-sided die first. Each turn consists of the rolling the die repeatedly until you get a 1 or decide to stop. As long as you roll a 2-6, you will add this amount to your total for that turn. But if you roll a 1 during your turn, your turn ends and you receive zero points for that entire turn (erasing all of the progress you made since you last agreed to stop). If you decide to stop rolling at any point in your turn, your points for that turn are then added to the overall score. The overall score is then safe from future rolls. The trick is knowing how long to push it before we should stop and save our gains. See end of this document for an example of a game of pig we should write coding as below In order to explore what is the best strategy for the computer player (i.e. at what score do we stop each computer…arrow_forward
