Concept explainers
Stock Profit
The profit from the sale of a stock can be calculated as follows:
- where NS is the number of shares,
- SP is the sale price per share,
- SC is the sale commission paid,
- PP is the purchase price per share,
- and PC is the purchase commission paid.
If the calculation yields a positive value, then the sale of the stock resulted in a profit. If the calculation yields a negative number, then the sale resulted in a loss.
Write a function that accepts as arguments the number of shares, the purchase price per share, the purchase commission paid, the sale price per share, and the sale commission paid. The function should return the profit (or loss) from the sale of stock.
Demonstrate the function in a

- After the FCC licensing freeze was lifted, sitcoms featuring urban settings and working class characters became far less common. Question 14 options: True Falsearrow_forwardsolve this questions for me .arrow_forwarda) first player is the minimizing player. What move should be chosen?b) What nodes would not need to be examined using the alpha-beta pruning procedure?arrow_forward
- Consider the problem of finding a path in the grid shown below from the position S to theposition G. The agent can move on the grid horizontally and vertically, one square at atime (each step has a cost of one). No step may be made into a forbidden crossed area. Inthe case of ties, break it using up, left, right, and down.(a) Draw the search tree in a greedy search. Manhattan distance should be used as theheuristic function. That is, h(n) for any node n is the Manhattan distance from nto G. The Manhattan distance between two points is the distance in the x-directionplus the distance in the y-direction. It corresponds to the distance traveled along citystreets arranged in a grid. For example, the Manhattan distance between G and S is4. What is the path that is found by the greedy search?(b) Draw the search tree in an A∗search. Manhattan distance should be used as thearrow_forwardwhats for dinner? pleasearrow_forwardConsider the follow program that prints a page number on the left or right side of a page. Define and use a new function, isEven, that returns a Boolean to make the condition in the if statement easier to understand. ef main() : page = int(input("Enter page number: ")) if page % 2 == 0 : print(page) else : print("%60d" % page) main()arrow_forward
- What is the correct python code for the function def countWords(string) that will return a count of all the words in the string string of workds that are separated by spaces.arrow_forwardConsider the following program that counts the number of spaces in a user-supplied string. Modify the program to define and use a function, countSpaces, instead. def main() : userInput = input("Enter a string: ") spaces = 0 for char in userInput : if char == " " : spaces = spaces + 1 print(spaces) main()arrow_forwardWhat is the python code for the function def readFloat(prompt) that displays the prompt string, followed by a space, reads a floating-point number in, and returns it. Here is a typical usage: salary = readFloat("Please enter your salary:") percentageRaise = readFloat("What percentage raise would you like?")arrow_forward
- assume python does not define count method that can be applied to a string to determine the number of occurances of a character within a string. Implement the function numChars that takes a string and a character as arguments and determined and returns how many occurances of the given character occur withing the given stringarrow_forwardConsider the ER diagram of online sales system above. Based on the diagram answer the questions below, a) Based on the ER Diagram, determine the Foreign Key in the Product Table. Just mention the name of the attribute that could be the Foreign Key. b) Mention the relationship between the Order and Customer Entities. You can use the following: 1:1, 1:M, M:1, 0:1, 1:0, M:0, 0:M c) Is there a direct relationship that exists between Store and Customer entities? Answer Yes/No? d) Which of the 4 Entities mention in the diagram can have a recursive relationship? e) If a new entity Order_Details is introduced, will it be a strong entity or weak entity? If it is a weak entity, then mention its type?arrow_forwardNo aiarrow_forward
