- Declare the necessary variables.
- Condition to validate whether the given length of string is “1” to return the given string is a palindrome.
- Use condition statement to validate whether the length of the string is greater than one.
- If the condition becomes true, then the given string is reversed to find whether the given string is a palindrome or not.

Exercise Objectives
Problem Description
Write a program that reads a string and mirrors it around the middle character.
Examples:
abcd becomes cdab.
abcde becomes deCab
AhmadAlami becomes AlamiAhmad
Page 1 of 2
Your program must:
• Implement function void reflect (char* str) which receives a string (array of characters) and
mirrors it. This function does not print anything.
•
Read from the user (in main()) a string and then print the string after calling function reflect().
•
Use pointers and pointer arithmetic only. The use of array notation and/or functions from the string.h
library is not allowed.
Make a function is_palindrome that takes a string as an argument that returns True if the given string is a palindrome, and False otherwise. A string is a
palindrome if it is the same if you reverse it. For example:
"racecar"
"kаyak"
"otto"
"redivider"
"wontloversrevoltnow"

- (Numerical) Write a program that tests the effectiveness of the rand() library function. Start by initializing 10 counters to 0, and then generate a large number of pseudorandom integers between 0 and 9. Each time a 0 occurs, increment the variable you have designated as the zero counter; when a 1 occurs, increment the counter variable that’s keeping count of the 1s that occur; and so on. Finally, display the number of 0s, 1s, 2s, and so on that occurred and the percentage of the time they occurred.arrow_forward(Numerical) Write and test a function that returns the position of the largest and smallest values in an array of double-precision numbers.arrow_forwardC++ Coding: ArraysTrue and False Code function definitions for eoNum() and output(): Both eoNum() and output() are recursive functions. output() stores the even/odd value in an array.

- Function Name: compliments Parameters: answer1 - a boolean (True or False) representing whether the user is "smart" answer2 - a boolean (True or False) representing whether the user is "awesome" answer3 - a boolean (True or False) representing whether the user is "fun" Description: Write a function that outputs a string of compliments based on the adjectives selected by the inputs. Use the inputs True and False. The function should return the string “You are” concatenated with the compliments that are true. The three compliments should be: "smart" "awesome" and "fun". If none of the compliments are true, print the string “Goodbye.” instead. Test Cases: >>>compliments(True, True, True) You are smart awesome fun. >>>compliments(False, True, False) You are awesome. >>>compliments(False, False, False) Goodbye.arrow_forwardC programming The field of astronomy has been significantly advanced through the use of computer technology. Algorithms can automatically survey digital images of the night sky, looking for new patterns. For this problem, you should write such an analysis program which counts the number of stars visible in an bitmap image. An image consists of pixels, and each pixel is either black or white (represented by the characters # and -, respectively). All black pixels are considered to be part of the sky, and each white pixel is considered to be part of a star. White pixels that are adjacent vertically or horizontally are part of the same star. Input Each test case begins with a line containing a pair of integers 1≤m, n≤100. This is followed by mm lines, each of which contains exactly nn pixels. Input contains at least one and at most 50 test cases, and input ends at the end of file. Output For each case, display the case number followed by the number of stars that are visible in the…arrow_forwardPalindromes - “A palindrome” is a string that reads the same from both directions. For example: the word "mom" is a palindrome. Also, the string "Murder for a jar of red rum" is a palindrome. - So, you need to implement a Boolean function that takes as input a string and its return is true (1) in case the string is a palindrome and false (0) otherwise. - There are many ways to detect if a phrase is a palindrome. The method that you will implement in this task is by using two stacks. This works as follows. Push the left half of the characters to one stack (from left to right) and push the second half of the characters (from right to left) to another stack. Pop from both stacks and return false if at any time the two popped characters are different. Otherwise, you return true after comparing all the elements. Phrases of odd length have to be treated by skipping the middle element like the word "mom", your halves are "m" and "m". - Hint: (without using STL)arrow_forward

This function should move every instance of the given character in the string to the end of the string, and then return (do NOT print) the final string. NOTE: Only write code within the function. You do not need to utilize the "input()" function. The autograder passes inputs directly to the function as arguments, and the checked output is the returned value from the function.

The message is encrypted by exchanging pairs of characters. Description: This function gets a text (string) and creates a new text by swapping each pair of characters, and returns a string with the modified text. For example, suppose the text has 6 characters, then it swaps the first with the second, the third with the fourth and the fifth with the sixth character. Parameters: text is a string (its length could be 0)Return value: A string that is generated by swapping pairs of characters. Note that if the Examples: swap_text ("hello") swap_text ("Party for Zoro!") swap_text ("") def which_day(numbers): → 'ehllo'→ 'aPtr yof roZor!' → '' length of the text is odd, the last character remains in the same position.arrow_forwardvowelIndex Write a function vowelIndex that accepts a word (a str) as an argument and returns the index of the first vowel in the word. If there is no vowel, -1 is returned. For this problem, both upper and lower case vowels count, and 'y' is not considered to be a vowel. Sample usage: >>> vowelIndex('hello') 1 >>> vowelIndex('string') 3 >>> vowelIndex('string') 3 >>> vowelIndex('BUY') 1 >>> vowelIndex('APPLE') 0 >>> vowelIndex('nymphly') -1 >>> vowelIndex('string')==3 True >>> vowel Index ('nymphly')==-1 Truearrow_forward
