=======================
One variation on the game of nim is described in Luger. The game begins with a single pile of stones. The move by a player consists of dividing a pile into two piles that contain an unequal number of stones. For example, if one pile contains six stones, it could be subdivided into piles of five and one, or four and two, but not three and three. The first player who cannot make a move loses the game.(6.1) Draw the complete game tree for this version of Nim if the start state consists of six stones.(6.2) Perform a minimax evaluation for this game. Let 1 denote a win and 0 a loss.
Knight's Tour: The Knight's Tour is a mathematical problem involving a knight on a chessboard. The knight is placed on the empty board and, moving according to the rules of chess, must visit each square exactly once. There are several billion solutions to the problem, of which about 122,000,000 have the knight finishing on the same square on which it begins. When this occurs the tour is said to be closed. Your assignment is to write a program that gives a solution to the Knight's Tour problem recursively. You must hand in a solution in C++ AND Java. The name of the C++ file should be "main.cc" and the name of the Java file should be "Main.java". Write C++ only with a file name of main.cc Please run in IDE and check to ensure that there are no errors occuring
Output should look similar to:

The classic Eight Queens puzzle is to place eight queens on a chessboard such that no two queens can attack each other (i.e., no two queens are in the same row, same column, or same diagonal). There are many possible solutions. Write a program that displays one such solution.

- Can you help me with this code because i am struggling and I don't know what to do with this part: he Eight Puzzle consists of a 3 x 3 board of sliding tiles with a single empty space. For each configuration, the only possible moves are to swap the empty tile with one of its neighboring tiles. The goal state for the puzzle consists of tiles 1-3 in the top row, tiles 4-6 in the middle row, and tiles 7 and 8 in the bottom row, with the empty space in the lower-right corner. In this section, you will develop two solvers for a generalized version of the Eight Puzzle, in which the board can have any number of rows and columns. We have suggested an approach similar to the one used to create a Lights Out solver in Homework 2, and indeed, you may find that this pattern can be abstracted to cover a wide range of puzzles. If you wish to use the provided GUI for testing, described in more detail at the end of the section, then your implementation must adhere to the recommended interface. However,…arrow_forwardChildren often play a memory game in which a deck of cards containing matching pairs is used. The cards are shuffled and placed face down on a table. The players then take turns and select two cards at a time. If both cards match, they are left face up; otherwise, the cards are placed face down at the same positions. Once the players see the selected pair of cards and if the cards do not match, then they can memorize the cards and use their memory to select the next pair of cards. The game continues until all the cards are face up. Write a program to play the memory game. Use a two dimensional array of 4 rows and 4 columns to use a deck of 16 cards with 8 matching pairs and you can use numbers 1 to 8 to mark the cards. (If you use a 6 by 6 array, then you will need 18 matching pairs, and so on.) Use random number generators to randomly store the pairs in the array. Use appropriate functions in your program, and the main program should be merely a call to functions. Extra credit:…arrow_forwardplease code in python You place a pawn at the top left corner of an n-by-n chess board, labeled (0,0). For each move, you have a choice: move the pawn down a single space, or move the pawn down one space and right one space. That is, if the pawn is at position (i,j), you can move the pawn to (i+1,j) or (i+1, j+1). Ask the user for the size of a chessboard, n (integer). Find the number of different paths starting from (0,0) that the pawn could take to reach each position on the chess board. For example, there are two different paths the pawn can take to reach (2,1). Look at the diagrams below to convince yourself of this. You can see the four paths that you can take by move 2. Start -> Move 1 -> Move 2 (0,0) -> (1,0) -> (2,1) (0,0) -> (1,0) -> (2,0) (0,0) -> (1,1) -> (2,1) (0,0) -> (1,1) -> (2,2) Print the board with the number of ways to reach each square labeled as shown below.

- A popular word game involves finding words from a grid of randomly generatedletters. Words must be at least three letters long and formed from adjoining letters.Letters may not be reused and it is valid to move across diagonals. As an example,consider the following 4 * 4 grid of letters: A B C DE F G HI J K LM N O P The word “FAB” is valid (letters in the upper left corner) and the word “KNIFE”is valid. The word “BABE” is not valid because the “B” may not be reused. Theword “MINE” is not valid because the “E” is not adjacent to the “N”. Write a program that uses a 4 * 4 two-dimensional array to represent the gameboard. The program should randomly select letters for the board. You may wishto select vowels with a higher probability than consonants. You may also wish toalways place a “U” next to a “Q” or to treat “QU” as a single letter. The programshould read the words from the text file words.txt (included on the website withthis book) and then use a recursive algorithm to…arrow_forwardTASK 3 In number theory, a happy number is a number which eventually reaches 1 when replaced by the sum of the square of each digit. For instance, 13 is a happy number because 12 + 3? = 10 and 12 + 0² = 1. On the other hand, 4 is not a happy number because the sequence starting with 4? = 16 and 12 + 6? = 37 and eventually reaches to 4 that is the number that started the sequence, and so the process continues in an infinite cycle without ever reaching 1. Write, Compile and Execute a Java method that computes whether a given number is happy or sad.arrow_forwardCredit card numbers follow certain patterns: It must have between 13 and 16 digits, and the number must start with:■ 4 for Visa cards■ 5 for MasterCard credit cards■ 37 for American Express cards■ 6 for Discover cards In 1954, Hans Luhn of IBM proposed an algorithm for validating credit card numbers. The algorithm is useful to determine whether a card number is entered correctly or whether a credit card is scanned correctly by a scanner. Credit card numbers are generated following this validity check, commonly known as the Luhn check or the Mod 10 check, which can be described as follows (for illustration, consider the card number 4388576018402626): 1. Double every second digit from right to left. If doubling of a digit results in a two-digit number, add up the two digits to get a single-digit number. 2. Now add all single-digit numbers from Step 1. 3. Add all digits in the odd places from right to left in the card number. 4. Sum the results from Steps 2 and 3. 5. If the result from…arrow_forward
- Problem Description Learn Clojure In this problem, each person in the social network takes a specific time to send the message(time is an integer). A specific newbie in react(let's call him NB) wants to post a question to a ninja(let's call him NJ) on the network. Find out how long a specific message takes to reach NJ from NB. The social network is given as the input as follows. The first line is a number which is the number of people in the social network. The next following lines are the actual members of the social network whose names are written in separate lines. Following that is the number of connections, followed by a new line separated list of connections given as . Then on the next line is the person who wants to send the message(NB's id in our case) and on the next line is the person who is the intended recipient(NJ's id). The output should be a single line consisting of the time it takes to send the message through or -1 if the message can't be sent.
