Chapter 3, Problem 23C
Suppose you are designing a multiplayer game that has n ≥ 1000 players, numbered 1 to n, interacting in an enchanted forest. The winner of this game is the first player who can meet all the other players at least once (ties are allowed). Assuming that there is a method meet(i, j), which is called each time a player i meets a player j (with i ≠ j), describe a way to keep track of the pairs of meeting players and who is the winner.

Which best describes this axiom:
( aList ( ) ) . replace ( i, item ) ) . getEntry ( i ) = item
When an item is replaced, it always goes in the position specified in the method call
When an item is replaced, space is made by moving all of the items starting at the position specified down toward the bottom of the list by one to make room
When an item is replaced, it always goes in the first available unused position
None of these
: Given a list of people with their birth and death years, implement a method tocompute the year with the most number of people alive. You may assume that all people were bornbetween 1900 and 2000 (inclusive). If a person was alive during any portion of that year, they shouldbe included in that year's count. For example, Person (birth= 1908, death= 1909) is included in thecounts for both 1908 and 1909.

For each digit between 1 to 9, there is one card with that digit on it. Alice and Bob each draw two cards after shuffling the cards, and see the digits on their own cards without revealing the digits to each other. Then Alice gives her two cards to Bob. Bob sees the digits on Alice’s cards and lays all the four cards on the table in increasing order by the digits. Cards are laid facing down. Bob tells Alice the positions of her two cards. The goal of Alice is to guess the digits on Bob’s two cards. Can Alice uniquely determine these two digits and guess them correctly? Input The input has two integers p,q (1≤p<q≤9) on the first line, giving the digits on Alice’s cards. The next line has a string containing two ‘A’s and two ‘B’s, giving the positions of Alice’s and Bob’s cards on the table. It is guaranteed that Bob correctly sorts the cards and gives the correct positions of Alice’s cards. Output If Alice can…arrow_forwardThe Fibonacci sequence begins with 0 and then 1 follows.

As the ball rolls down, it strikes a spike and bursts open to release a number of smaller balls (in our simulated game, the number of smaller balls is a randomly generated integer between 2 and 6, inclusive). As the smaller balls further roll down, when one strikes a spike, that ball and all its sibling balls burst and each generates another set of smaller balls (using the same random number already generated for the first roll). The balls keep rolling downhill and striking spikes and bursting into smaller balls until a golden ball is released by one of the bursts. At this time, the game is over and the player is told how many balls were generated during the last burst (including the golden ball). The game is played by two players at a time and the player who had the lowest number of balls generated on the…arrow_forwardA pet shop wants to give a discount to its clients if they buy one or more pets and at least five other items.

For the ith item, prices[i] is the price before any discount, and isPet[i] is true if the item is a pet.

- Write the value_equality method.Given the two expressions ? and ?, first compute the set of variables ? that appear in either ? or ?. Then, the idea consists in performing num_sample times the following test for equality: First, produce a variable assignment (a dictionary) mapping each variable in ? to a random value. Choose these random values from the gaussian distribution centered around 0 and with standard deviation 10 (for instance; any continuous distribution with infinite domain would work). You can obtain such numbers using random.gauss(0, 10). Then, compute the values of ? and ? with respect to that variable evaluation. If the values are closer than a specified tolerance tolerance, you consider ? and ? equal (for that variable valuation). Otherwise, you can stop and return that ? and ? are different. If you can repeat the process num_sample times, and ? and ? are considered equal every time, then you declare them equal.
