((Simulation: The Tortoise and the Hare) In this problem, you’ll re-create one of the truly great moments in history, namely the classic race of the tortoise and the hare. You’ll use random number generation to develop a simulation of this memorable event. Our contenders begin the race at square 1 of 70 squares. Each square represents a possible position along the race course. The finish line is at square 70. The first contender to reach or pass square 70 is rewarded with a pail of fresh carrots and lettuce. The course weaves its way up the side of a slippery mountain, so occasionally the contenders lose ground. Use variables to keep track of the positions of the animals (i.e., position numbers are 1–70). Start each animal at position 1 (i.e., the “starting gate”). If an animal slips left before square 1, move the animal back to square 1. Generate the percentages in Fig. 10.24 by producing a random integer i in the range 1 ≤i ≤10. For the tortoise, perform a “fast plod” when 1 ≤i…

How is the body of a for loop defined? A. The body of a for loop is defined by an indented block of code following the for statement, similar to the body of an if statement. B. The body of a for loop is defined by an opening curly brace, one or more lines of code and a closing curly brace. C. The body of a for loop is defined by a left parenthesis, one or more lines of code and a right parenthesis. D. For loops do not have a body. What is a for loop? A. The for loop is the new improved three loop as it was defined in Python version 2. B. The for loop enables a program to repeat a block of code multiple times. C. The for loop enables a program to repeat a block of code one time, much like the if statement. D. The for loop is a block of code included at the beginning (the for) of a program.   Which of the following is an example of a sequence that might be used in a for statement? A. An integer B. A floating point number C. A list D. A boolean variable   How is a…
