Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 19PC
Trivia Game
In this
- Starting with player 1, each player gets a turn at answering 5 trivia questions. (There are 10 questions, 5 for each player.) When a question is displayed, four possible answers are also displayed. Only one of the answers is correct, and if the player selects the correct answer, he or she earns a point.
- After answers have been selected for all of the questions, the program displays the number of points earned by each player and declares the player with the highest number of points the winner.
You are to design a Question class to hold the data for a trivia question. The Question class should have String fields for the following data:
- A trivia question
- Possible answer 1
- Possible answer 2
- Possible answer 3
- Possible answer 4
- The number of the correct answer (1, 2, 3, or 4)
The Question class should have appropriate constructor(s), accessor, and mutator methods.
The program should create an array of 10 Question objects, one for each trivia question. (If you prefer, you can use an ArrayList instead of an array.) Make up your own trivia questions on the subject or subjects of your choice for the objects.

Four in a row is a game in which players take turns adding tokens to the columns on the game board.
Tokens fall to the lowest position in the chosen column that does not already have a token in it. Once one of the players has placed four of their tokens in a straight line (either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally), they win the game
If the board is full and no player has won, then the game ends in a draw.
TASK
Using the following class descriptions, create a UML diagram and a version of Four in a row game
The game must allow for a minimum of two and maximum of four players
The game must allow each player to enter their name(duplicate names should not be accepted)
The game should give the players the ability to choose how many rows (between four and ten), and how many columns (between four and ten) the game board should have.
The code uses several classes, including "Player", "Board","Game" and exceptions for handling errors such as invalid moves and full columns.…
Road Trip
Programming challenge description:
You've decided to make a road trip across the country in a straight line. You have chosen the direction you'd like to travel and made a list of cities in that direction that have gas stations to stop at and fill up your tank. To make sure that this route is viable, you need to know the distances between the adjacent cities in order to be able to travel this distance on a single tank of gasoline, (No one likes running out of gas.) but you only know distances to each city from your starting point.
Input:
Your program should read lines from standard input. Each line contains the list of cities and distances to them, comma delimited, from the starting point of your trip. You start your trip at point 0. The cities with their distances are separated by semicolon.
Output:
Print out the distance from the starting point to the nearest city, and the distances between two nearest cities separated by comma, in order they appear on the route.
Test 1…
You have a maze with obstacles and non-zero digits in it:
9+ 7
8 + 4
1
2
3
4
5
You can start from any square, walk in the maze, and finally stop at some square. Each step, you
may only walk into one of the four neighbouring squares (up, down, left, right) and you cannot
walk into obstacles or walk into a square more than once. When you finish, you can get a number by
writing down the digits you encounter in the same order as you meet them. For example, you can get
numbers 9784, 4832145, etc. The biggest number you can get is 791452384, shown in the picture above.
Your task is to find the biggest mumber you can get.
Input
There will be at most 25 test cases. Each test begins with two integers R and C (2 < R,C < 15,
R+C < 30), the number of rows and columns of the maze. The next R rows represent the maze. Each
line contains exactly C characters (without leading or trailing spaces), each of them will be either #
or one of the nine non-zero digits. There will be at least one non-obstacle…

- Nim is a two-player game played with several piles of stones. You can use as many piles and as many stones in each pile as you want, but in order to better understand the game, we'll start off with just a few small piles of stones (see figure 1 below). Pile 1 Pile 1 Pile 2 The two players take turns removing stones from the game. On each turn, the player removing stones can only take stones from one pile, but they can remove as many stones from that pile as they want (please note, a player must remove atleast 1 stone from a pile during his/her turn). If they want, they can even remove the entire pile from the game! The winner is the player who removes the final stone (avoid taking the last stone - see figure 2 below). Pile 2 Pile 3 Pile 3 Let's say its Max (player 1) turn to play. Then Max can win by simply removing a stone from Pile 2 or Pile 3 Draw a game tree (upto depth level 2) for the given version of the Nim game.

- Scenario You work for a small company that creates text-based games. You have been asked to pitch an idea to your team for a text-based adventure game with a theme and environment of your choice. Your game must include different rooms, items, and a villain. The basic gameplay will require the player to move between different rooms to gather all of the items. A player wins the game by collecting all the items before encountering the villain. The player will have two options for commands in the game: moving to a different room, and getting an item from the room they are in. Movement between rooms happens in four simple directions: North, South, East, and West. Directions In this project, you will break the problem down into a set of requirements for your game program. Then you will design your game by creating a storyboard and pseudocode or flowcharts. Remember, in Project One, you are only designing the game. You will actually develop the code for your game in Project Two. Review the…arrow_forwardTHIS MUST BE DONE IN CORAL: Cracked Egg Game: There are a dozen eggs in a basket; some are hard boiled and some are raw. The object of this game is for the user to guess the number of hard-boiled eggs prior to playing the game. The computer then simulates cracking all 12 eggs, using a random number 0 or 1 to simulate raw or hard boiled. The number 0 should represent raw eggs and the number 1 should represent hard boiled. The computer must keep track of the number of hard-boiled eggs. At the conclusion of cracking all 12 eggs, the actual number of hard boiled is compared to the user’s guess, and whether the user won or lost is given as output. The goal of this milestone is to use Coral to program one of the loops you will need for your finalized program in Project Two. This will help you define the logic, flow, and sequence of the game. For this work, you will write code in Coral for your selected programming game by accessing the activity in the zyBook.

One machine contains 69 white balls (labeled 1 through 69) and the other machine contains 26 red balls (labeled 1 through 26). To determine the winning numbers, the gamemaster draws five white balls from the first machine and one red ball (the "Powerball") from the second machine (assume all outcomes are equally likely). A player in the Powerball lottery picks five different numbers between 1 and 69 (inclusive) and a sixth number between 1 and 26 (inclusive), which may duplicate one of the first five numbers. For each of the following questions, you should write your answer as an expression. Do not give the final numeric value. For example, you should write C(4, 2)/24) instead of 0.375.arrow_forward

- Prompt: Create a virtual pet care game where players can choose a cute pet and then feed, train, or play-with it. The game is based on a simple game loop, where at the beginning of each loop, the game notifies the player of the current pet status (hungry, sleepy, bored, etc.) The player should then select the corresponding actions to improve the status of the pet. After each action, the game loop is repeated and the pet values are updated. The status should be displayed along with the corresponding messages as well as the menu of actions. Design Requirements: Implement the Pet class Create the base Pet class. It should manage variables that keep track of the pet's state, such as how hungry/sleepy/bored/happy the pet is currently. Include a function that updates the pet's state values to reflect the passage of time. If any of the variables are above some threshold (such as 40 out of 100), the function should output the corresponding message such as "<Pet name> is hungry!"

The game has a ton of quests, and for a player to win, the player must finish all the quests. There are a total of N quests in the game. Here is how the game works: the player can arbitrarily pick one of the N quests to start from. Once the player completes a quest, they unlock some other quests. The player can then choose one of the unlocked quests and complete it, and so on. For instance, let’s say that this game had only 4 quests: A, B, C, and D. Let’s say that after you complete • quest A, you unlock quests [B, D]. • quest B, you unlock quests [C, D]. • quest C, you unlock nothing [ ]. • quest D, you unlock quest [C]. Is this game winnable? Yes, because of the following scenario: The player picks quest A to start with. At the end of the quest A, the unlocked list contains [B, D].
