Chapter 3, Problem 4PP
Write a
The user is asked how many cards she or he has, and the user responds with one of the integers 2, 3, 4, or 5. The user is then asked for the card values. Card values are 2 through 10, jack, queen, king, and ace. A good way to handle input is to use the type char so that the card input 2, for example, is read as the character '2', rather than as the number 2. Input the values 2 through 9 as the characters '2' through '9'. Input the values 10, jack, queen, king, and ace as the characters 't', 'j', 'q', 'k', and 'a'. (Of course, the user does not type in the single quotes.) Be sure to allow upper- as well as lowercase letters as input.
After reading in the values, the program should convert them from character values to numeric card scores, taking special care for aces. The output is either a number between 2 and 21 (inclusive) or the word Busted. You are likely to have one or more long multiway branches that use a switch statement or nested if-else statement. Your program should include a loop that lets the user repeat this calculation until the user says she or he is done.

Nim is a two-player game played with several piles of stones. 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. Please consider figure
1 as your initial game configuration/state…

Write a program for a game that consists of two players. The rule of the
game is that player 1 inputs a random number from 1-100. Player 2 will
input 5 numbers. If the summation of those numbers is equal to the number
OR less than or greater than the number by 3 (+3 or -3), then player 2
wins. Otherwise, player 1 wins.
Test Case 1
Input
Player 1, enter a number: 50
Player 2, enter a number: 10
Player 2, enter a number: 10
Player 2, enter a number: 20
Player 2, enter a number: 5
Player 2, enter a number: 7
Output
Player 2 wins
Explanation: The summation of 10,10,20,5 and 7 is 52 which is greater than
50 by 2. According to the rule, player 2 wins.
Test Case 2
Input
Player 1, enter a number: 50
Player 2, enter a number: 10
Player 2, enter a number: 10
Player 2, enter a number: 20
Player 2, enter a number: 5
Player 2, enter a number: 1
Output
Player 1 wins
Explanation: The summation of 10,10,20,5 and 1 is 46 which is less than 50

Write a program that deals a number of cards (their numerical values) to a player's hand. To begin, the program asks the player for the values of the deck of cards.
Then, the program deals the first two cards of the deck to a player's hand, and asks him if he wants another card. If he does not want a card, the program ends. If he wants a card, the program deals the next available card in the deck, adds it to the player's hand, and asks the player if he wants another card. The dealing process repeats as long as the user continues to accept cards, or until the cards in the deck run out.
Card dealing involves copying the available card from the deck vector to another vector, which stores the player's hand, at the next available position.
Assume that the deck of cards consists of only 10 cards with numerical values from 1 to 10, which the player will enter by keyboard before the program deals.
The following functions must be implemented/used:

- 1. In the game of Monopoly, a pair of dice are rolled to move a player's piece around the board. If a double is rolled (the dice show the same number), the player receives another roll of the dice. If a double is rolled a second time, a third roll of the dice is received. If a double is rolled on the third occasion, the player forfeits their turn (and goes to Jail). Write a program which simulates two players having 50 turns each (a turn however many dice rolls a player has in a row before it's the other player's turn) and determines: a) the total number of spaces moved by each player; and b) how many times a player rolls a double which results in movement of a piece. Use the randi function. For fun, incorporate the rule that a player cannot leave Jail (cannot move) unless they either roll a double or three turns have passed without rolling a double.arrow_forwardThe Penny Pitch game is popular in amusement parks. Pennies are tossed onto aboard that has certain areas marked with different prizes. For example: The prizes available on this board are puzzle, game, ball, poster, and doll.

The board is made up of 25 squares (5 x 5).Each prize appears on three randomly chosen squares so that 15 squares contain prizes.Create a penny_pitch application that displays a Penny Pitch board (use [ and ] toindicate squares) with prizes randomly placed and then simulates ten pennies being randomly pitched onto the board.

- Coupon collector is a classic statistic problem with many practical applications. The problem is to pick objects from a set of objects repeatedly and determine how many picks are needed for all the objects to be picked at least once. A variation of the problem is to pick cards from a shuffled deck of 52 cards repeatedly and find out how many picks are needed before you see one of each suit. Assume a picked card is placed back in the deck before picking another. Write a program to simulate the number of picks needed to get four cards from each suit and display the four cards picked (it is possible that a card may be picked twice).arrow_forwardjava - NetBeansarrow_forwardCoin Exchange: Write a program that will determine how many coins of each denomination (50kr, 25kr, 10kr, Skr, and 1kr) are required to make up a given amount of change. For example, to make 57kr we could use 1 x 50kr, 1 x 5kr, and 2 x 1kr., It should be obvious that many combinations of coins are possible. For example, in the example above, we could make up 57kr with: (57 x 1kr) or (2 x 25kr and 7 x 1kr). However, your program must use the smallest number of coins (10 points).

- IN JAVA Alice and Bob are playing a board game with a deck of nine cards. 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_forwardA "mad-lib" is a fill-in-the blank game. One player writes a short story in which some words are replacedby blanks. For each word that is removed, the appropriate part of speech is noted: e.g. noun (person/-place/thing), adjective (word that describes a noun), verb (an action, e.g. eat), adverb (modifies a verb, e.g.quickly). Then, before reading the story, the story-writer asks the other player to write down a word of theappropriate part of speech for each blank without knowing the context in which it will be used. In this way,a humorous (sometimes) or non-sensical (usually) story is created.Write your own mad-lib. It must have at least three blanks in it.
