Chapter 7, Problem 4E

Write a program in a class FlowerCounter that computes the cost of flowers sold at a flower stand. Five kinds of flowers—petunia, pansy, rose, violet, and carnation—are stocked and cost, respectively, 50¢ 75¢, $1.50, 50¢, and 80¢ per flower. Create an array of strings that holds the names of these flowers. Create another array that holds the cost of each corresponding flower. Your program should read the name of a flower and the quantity desired by a customer. Locate the flower in the name array and use that index to find the cost per stem in the cost array. Compute and print the total cost of the sale.

In this project you will generate a poker hand containing five cards randomly selected from a deck of cards. The names of the cards are stored in a text string will be converted into an array. The array will be randomly sorted to "shuffle" the deck.  Each time the user clicks a Deal button, the last five cards of the array will be removed, reducing the size of the deck size. When the size of the deck drops to zero, a new randomly sorted deck will be generated. A preview of the completed project with a randomly generated hand is shown in Figure 7-50.
in C#, Visual Basic Write an app for Boston Airlines that allows a customer to reserve a seat on the airline’s only plane (capacity: 10 seats). Radio buttons should allow the choice between First Class and Economy. The app should then assign a seat in the first-class section (seats 1–5) or the economy section (seats 6–10). Use a one-dimensional array of type bool to represent the seating chart of the plane. Initialize all the elements of the array to false to indicate that all the seats are empty. As each seat is assigned, set the corresponding element of the array to true to indicate that the seat is no longer available. Your app should never assign a seat that has already been assigned. When the economy section is full, your app should ask the person if it is acceptable to be placed in the first-class section (and vice versa). If yes, make the appropriate seat assignment. If no, display the message “Next flight leaves in 3 hours."
You have been hired at an open-air mine. You are to write a program to control a digger. For your task, you have been given a 'map' of all the underground resources in the mine. This map comes as a two-dimensional integer array. The array has n rows and k columns. Each integer is between zero and one hundred (inclusive). This array represents a grid map of the mine – with each row representing a different height level. Each square in the grid can contain valuable resources. The value of these resources can go from zero (no resources) to 100 (max resources). The grid maps the resources just below the surface, and down to the lowest diggable depths. The digger starts at the surface (so, just on top of the topmost row in the grid)—at any horizontal position between 1 and k. The digger cannot dig directly downwards, but it can dig diagonally in either direction, left-down, or right-down. In its first time-step, it will dig onto the first row of the grid. In its second time-step, it'll hit…
