A laborant in a laboratory does a number of antigen tests in one day. Write a program that
simulates the number of antigen tests done in a day in a laboratory, displays the number of
positives and negatives, and calculates the % of positives in one day. Your program needs
to first generate a random number that will show the number of tests done in a day. One
laboratory in a day cannot do more than 100 tests and less than 1 (they do at least one).
Then for each of the tests, your program needs to generate a random number to show
whether they are positive or negative. In order to write this program, you need to have the
following three functions used by the main function:
test result (void): This function generates a test result. It should randomly
return either one or zero. 1 means positive test result and 0 means negative test result.
float positive percentage (int,int) : This function takes the total number of
positives and the total number of tests and returns the % of positives.…

- Airline companies apply baggage restrictions for their passengers. An airline company has decided to apply a 10kg limitation for passengers' hand luggage and 20kg for their normal baggage. When passengers arrive, they enter their hand and normal luggage weight from the keyboard. If passengers exceed their normal baggage allowance of 10 dollars per gram, they pay 12 dollars per kg. Accordingly, write the program that calculates the baggage price of the airline they will go to according to the baggage values entered by the arriving passenger and keeps this from closing the program for each passenger. Note: If hand and normal baggage allowances are stretched below the maximum value, the payment amount will be considered not negative. An example printout is given on the right. Geri bildirim gönderarrow_forwardIn CORAL LANGUAGE please and thank you! Summary: Given integer values for red, green, and blue, subtract the gray from each value. Computers represent color by combining the sub-colors red, green, and blue (rgb). Each sub-color's value can range from 0 to 255. Thus (255, 0, 0) is bright red, (130, 0, 130) is a medium purple, (0, 0, 0) is black, (255, 255, 255) is white, and (40, 40, 40) is a dark gray. (130, 50, 130) is a faded purple, due to the (50, 50, 50) gray part. (In other words, equal amounts of red, green, blue yield gray). Given values for red, green, and blue, remove the gray part. Ex: If the input is: 130 50 130 the output is: 80 0 80 Hint: Find the smallest value, and then subtract it from all three values, thus removing the gray.arrow_forwardWrite a program that reads from the user a character ('q' or 'c').

We assume the quadrilateral is either a square or rectangle. You should print if the quadrilateral is square or rectangle. • Otherwise, it prints "Wrong character" PS: Use the following formulas: area of circle=3.14*r Sample Run1: Enter a character (q or c): q Enter the Length and Width: 80 150 |It is a rectangle Sample Run2: Enter a character (q or c): q Enter the Length and Width: 80 80 It is a square Sample Run3: Enter a character (q or c): c Enter the radius: 2 The area of the circle is 12.56 Sample Run4: Enter a character (q or c): d Wrong characterarrow_forward

The formula for computing the area of a regular polygon is Area = ( n * s2 ) / (4 * tan( π/n) Here, s is the length of a side. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the number of sides and their length of a regular polygon and displays its area.arrow_forward
- in C# Sometimes figuring letter grades is hard. Write a program that asks for, and reads from the user, a midterm exam grade and a final exam grade. Compute the average of those two grades and ouput a letter grade based on the scale shown below. CHALLENGE PROBLEM: One of my graduate school classes modified the above calculation. This professor said that the final grade would be determined by the simple average of the midterm and the final, however, if the student scored better on the final than they did on the midterm, the professor would weight the midterm exam at 25%, and the final exam at 75% when computing the final grade. Modify your code to use this professors modification in determining letter grade. Here is the grading scale:arrow_forwardWrite a program that reads from the user a character (*q' or 'c').

They are exhibiting this amoeba in a national. conference. They want to know the size of the amoeba at a particular time instant. If a particular month's index is given, write a program to display the amoeba's size. For Example, the size of the amoeba on month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,... will be 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8.... respectively.arrow_forward
- Part 1: Complete the survey. Part 2: Peek-a-boo is a fun game that little kids like to play. To simulate this game on the computer, write a program that will generate a random number between 1 and 4. Then, will print to the screen the animal name associated to that number. The animal names used will be: pig when a 1 is generated cow when a 2 is generated chicken when a 3 is generated horse when a 4 is generated If your program generates a 3, the output will be: chicken The player will then enter a 1 if they would like to play again or anything else to exit the program. If the player enters "1 1 1 0", the output will be: horse chicken cow horse For coding simplicity, follow each output animal by a space, even the last one.

Their equivalent resistance Reg is related to the values R1, R2, ..., Rn by: 1 1 1 1 + +...+ R R R, R. "eq Write a program that prompts the user to enter the resistance of n resistors. The user should be prompted continuously by using a while loop until a zero or negative value is entered (the program should count the number of resistors n entered by the user and store the values in an array). Use another separate loop to print the resistance values entered by the user and the equivalent resistance Reg.

Consider the power series +00 g(x) = 2 n=0 (by definition co = 1) called the generating function of the sequence (en). Justify that cn < 4" for each n, and deduce that the radius of convergence of g is at least 1/4. 3.
