- Write a program that generates a random number in the range from 1 through 100 After generating the random number, the user is to guess the number. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high, try again” If user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low, try again”. If the user guesses the number, the program should congratulate the user and then generate a NEW random number so the game can start over.

- When Jacob Steinberg began his trip from California to Vermont, he filled his car’s tank with gas and reset its trip meter to 0. After traveling 324 miles, Jacob stopped at a gas station to refuel; the gas tank required 17 gallons. Jacob wants a program that calculates and displays his car’s gas mileage at any time during the trip. The gas mileage is the number of miles his car can be driven per gallon of gas. Desk-check your solution’s algorithm using 324 as the number of miles driven and 17 as the number of gallons used; then desk-check it using 280 and 15.arrow_forwardA small company needs an interactive program to compute an employee’s paycheck. 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. Instruction: Rank the given pseudocodes according to their order of action: If employee’s number of hours worked is less than 0, go to 5 Set employee’s hourly pay rate to 0 Set employee’s number of hours worked to 0 Print “Employee’s wage is ”, employee’s wage Else, employee’s wage = employee’s hourly pay rate x hours Else, go to 5 Else, go to 8 Get employee’s hourly pay…arrow_forwardSlove by pythonarrow_forward
- You require an algorithm that will receive the dimensions of a fish tank from the screen (length, width, height), calculate the volume, and display the volume in gallons to the screen.arrow_forwardCreate a guessing game where two players will attempt to guess the sum of the values of two dice (Your program will mimic two dice roll). Each player will be prompted to guess the sum. If a player guesses the sum correctly, the player wins the round. If no player guesses the sum correctly, the program will display a message indicating there was no winner for the round. Each correct guess earns a player 10 points. The first player to reach 100 points wins. If both players reach 100 points, the game is a tie. If no player reaches 100 points after 25 rounds, the program displays messages (See details below) and terminatesarrow_forwardIn the Raptor program Write a program that lets the user play the game of Rock, Paper, Scissors against the computer. The program should work as follows:1. When the program begins, a random number in the range of 1 through 3 is generated. If the number is 1, then the computer has chosen rock. If the number is 2, then the computer has chosen paper. If the number is 3, then the computer has chosen scissors. (Don’t display the computer’s choice yet.)2. The user enters his or her choice of “rock,” “paper,” or “scissors” at the keyboard.3. The computer’s choice is displayed.4. A winner is selected according to the following rules:• If one player chooses rock and the other player chooses scissors, then rock wins. (Rock smashes scissors.)• If one player chooses scissors and the other player chooses paper, then scissors wins. (Scissors cuts paper.)• If one player chooses paper and the other player chooses rock, then paper wins. (Paper wraps rock.)• If both players make the same choice, the…arrow_forward
