Program Plan Intro
Sentinel:
Sentinel is used to hold special values to indicate that no additional values can be entered by the user. It means when a sentinel value is entered by the user, the program or loop control will be terminated. It is a value to indicate the user that the last grade of values has been entered.

def is_left_handed(pips):
Even though this has no effect on fairness, pips from one to six are not painted on dice just any which way, but so that pips on the opposite faces always add up to seven. (This convention makes it easier to tell when someone tries to use crooked dice with certain undesirable pip values replaced with values that are more desirable for the cheater.) In each of the 23 = 8 corners of the cube, exactly one value from each pair of forbidden opposites 1-6, 2-5 and 3-4 meets two values chosen from the other two pairs of opposites. You can twist and turn any corner of the die to face you, and yet two opposite sides never spread into simultaneous view.
This discipline still allows for two distinct ways to paint the pips. If the numbers in the corner shared by the faces 1, 2, and 3 read out clockwise as 1-2-3, that die is left-handed, whereas if they read out as 1-3-2, that die is right-handed. Analogous to a pair of shoes made separately for the left and…

In the game, players may choose to place bets on single numbers or various groupings which will determine their payout. To determine the winning number a ball is spun in the opposite direction of a spinning wheel. As the ball loses momentum it comes to rest in one of the slots of the wheel. Winnings are then paid to anyone who places a successful bet. n 00 2. 1ST12 2ND12 3RD12 1T018 EVEN ODD |19то36 Figure 1: Layout of a European roulette table Numbers can be classified in several ways: 1.

- (Numerical) Write an assignment statement to calculate the nth term in an arithmetic sequence. This is the formula for calculating the value, v, of the nth term: v=a+(n1)d a is the first number in the sequence. d is the difference between any two numbers in the sequence.arrow_forwardProblem Description The hailstone sequence is defined as the integer sequence that results from manipulating a positive integer value n as follows: If n is even, divide it by 2 (using floor division) • If n is odd, multiply it by 3 and then add 1 Repeat this process until you reach 1. For example, starting with n = 5, we get the sequence 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1. If n is 6, we get the sequence 6, 3, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1. If n is 7, we get 7, 22, 11, 34, 17, 52, 26, 13, 40, 20, 10, 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1. If n is 8, we get the sequence 8, 4, 2, 1. As far as anyone can tell, this process will eventually reach 1 for any starting value, although mathematicians have been unable to formally prove this property as of yet. a.

Example: Input size of array: 5 Array elements: 1 2 3 4 5 After creating the array, you need to prompt the user again to pick m number of elements to remove. If the input is invalid, prompt the user to try again. An input is invalid if it meets either one of these criteria: Greater than size n of the array Negative number Example: Number of elements to remove: -2 Invalid number. Try again: 3 After a valid input, prompt the user for the valid indices to remove. An index is valid if it is within the range of the array size. Output the array elements after a valid index input and consider the new size of the array after. Example: Index (1): 2 Array elements: 1 2 4 5 Index (2): 4 Invalid index! Try again. Index (2): 0 Array elements: 2 4 5 Index (3): 2 Array elements: 2 4 After everything, print FINISHED! Input 1. Size of array 2.…arrow_forward
