MPI Lab Directions
Write an MPI program, countprimes which will count the number of prime numbers in the numbers from 1 to n inclusive where n is a long integer. The value for n which should be set in the program using a constant should be 50,000.
Each process will test its share of the cases.
Each process should not print out any primes that it finds, but it should keep a running total. Before the process finishes, it should print out its ID number and its count of primes that it found.
The master process should end with printing a total for the count of the number of primes and the total amount of time taken to find all the primes.
Take a screenshot of the output for running this with 5 processes.
Before submission, make sure you clean up the directories so that no miscellaneous files are kept around in the submission. (Grade would be deducted if useless files are found in the homework directories.) Include the source code, screenshot, and the Makefile in the submission. Your…

Lap Timer Tool
Write a program ON PYTHON that asks the user to enter the number of times that they have run around a racetrack, and then uses a loop to prompt them to enter the lap time for each of their laps. When the loop finishes, the program should display the time of their fastest lap, the time of their slowest lap, and their average lap time.

- Warm-up: Integer Operations Write a program that asks the user to enter two integers and prints the Difference, Product, Area of an Ellipse, and Average of these numbers. Here is an example of the execution of the program:arrow_forwardProgram Description:in C language The project is a student management system which maintains student records in a simple text file. Your task is to write a program to save a list of students records in a FILE and then perform several operations on this FILE. Your program will ask user to choose the option from a menu. The 3 major function in menu are: ADD STUDENT FIND STUDENT PRINT LIST Exit How it Works The menu is handled by do while and switch statement. Sample output The Methods to be implemented are as follows: 1. ADDSTUDENT This method will add a new student to the file. It takes 3 parameters ( student name, id, and GPA). Your program must ask the user to enter the details of new students: Name, ID and GPA 2. FINDSTUDENT This method will search for a student with his/her id in the file.

Once user enters 'Q' or anything other than a number, the program will print out “Have a nice day" and then exit the program. After reading the user's input the positive number, the program will print out the multiplication table of the inputted number. For example, if user enters 5, the table should be: Multiplication table for 5 is: 2 3 4 5 4 6 8 10 9 12 15 8 12 16 20 5 10 15 20 25 Your program needs continuously ask the user to enter the a positive number until the user enters Q or q to exit the program.
