Chapter 9, Problem 8PC
Mode Function
In statistics, the mode of a set of values is the value that occurs most often or with the greatest frequency. Write a function that accepts as arguments the following:
A) An array of integers
B) An integer that indicates the number of elements in the array
The function should determine the mode of the array. That is, it should determine which value in the array occurs most often. The mode is the value the function should return. If the array has no mode (none of the values occur more than once), the function should return −1. (Assume the array will always contain nonnegative values.)
Demonstrate your pointer prowess by using pointer notation instead of array notation in this function.

C Program Functions with 1D Arrays
Create a program that asks the user for the size of an integer array and the elements of the array.
Then, create a function with the following details:
Parameters:
An integer array
The size of the integer array
Return type - int
Return value - the maximum value of the integer array
Call the function you created in the main and pass the integer array and its size to it. Make sure to store the return value in a variable so you could print it afterwards.
Input
1. First line contains the size of the array
2. Succeeding lines are the elements of an array
Output
Enter size of array: 5
Enter element 1: 1
Enter element 2: 2
Enter element 3: 3
Enter element 4: 4
Enter element 5: 5
Maximum element: 5
Array Expander - Use Pointer Notation for the function and within the function. Use a main function and return the pointer from the ArrayExpander function to main
To receive an array argument, a function's parameter list must specify that the function expects to receive an array. The size of the array is not required between the array brackets. Select one:
True
False

- (Statistics) Write a program that includes two functions named calcavg() and variance(). The calcavg() function should calculate and return the average of values stored in an array named testvals. The array should be declared in main() and include the values 89, 95, 72, 83, 99, 54, 86, 75, 92, 73, 79, 75, 82, and 73. The variance() function should calculate and return the variance of the data. The variance is obtained by subtracting the average from each value in testvals, squaring the values obtained, adding them, and dividing by the number of elements in testvals. The values returned from calcavg() and variance() should be displayed by using cout statements in main().arrow_forward(List maintenance) The following letters are stored in an alphabet array: B, J, K, M, S, and Z.

Create the file by entering five customer records, with each record consisting of an integer account number (starting with account number 1000), a first name (maximum of 10 characters), a last name (maximum of 15 characters), and a double-precision number for the account balance. After the file is created, write a C++ program that requests a user-input account number and displays the corresponding name and account balance from the file.arrow_forward
- (Electrical eng.) Write a program that specifies three one-dimensional arrays named current, resistance, and volts. Each array should be capable of holding 10 elements. Using a for loop, input values for the current and resistance arrays. The entries in the volts array should be the product of the corresponding values in the current and resistance arrays (sovolts[i]=current[i]resistance[i]). After all the data has been entered, display the following output, with the appropriate value under each column heading: CurrentResistance Voltsarrow_forward(Data processing) The answers to a true-false test are as follows: T T F F T. Given a twodimensional answer array, in which each row corresponds to the answers provided on one test, write a function that accepts the two-dimensional array and number of tests as parameters and returns a one-dimensional array containing the grades for each test. (Each question is worth 5 points, so the maximum possible grade is 25.) Test your function with the following data:arrow_forward(Electrical eng.) Write a program that declares three one-dimensional arrays named volts, current, and resistance. Each array should be declared in main() and be capable of holding 10 double-precision numbers.

Your program should pass these three arrays to a function named calc_volts(), which should calculate elements in the volts array as the product of the corresponding elements in the current and resistance arrays (for example ,volts[1]=current[1]resistance[1]). After calc_volts() has passed values to the volts array, the values in the array should be displayed from inside main().arrow_forward

The function has two parameters which are an integer array and an integer as a size of the array. The function computes the average value by adding all values from each element of an array and dividing them by the size of the array. The function returns an integer of the average value.

- Movie Data Write a program that will be used to gather statistical data about the number of movies college students see in a month. The program should ask the user how many students were surveyed and dynamically allocate an array of that size. The program then should allow the user to enter the number of movies each student has seen. It should then sort the scores and calculate the average. Modularity: Main: The main function should accept the number of students from the user and dynamically create an array large enough to contain number of movies watched for each student. Input validation: The number of students should be a positive integer. Print the average and free the allocated array when complete. Get the data: This function should get the number of movies watched by each college student. Input validation: The number of movies should be a positive integer. Sort the data: This function should sort the array in ascending order. Note you may use the Standard Template Library sort…arrow_forwardPHP Write a reduce function Write a function reduce($arr, $func) that takes an array and a function as a parameter. The reduce function should apply the parameter function to each element of the array in succession to produce a single result. Note: the current result should always be the first parameter to the function and the next element of the array should always be the second parameter. You may not use the PHP function array_reduce in your solution. For example, the result of the following should be 10. function myMax($current, $new) { return $current < $new ? $new : $current; } $arr = array(10, 5, 3, 5, 1, 2, 5, 7, 4); print("Max: " . reduce($arr, 'myMax') .arrow_forwardC languagearrow_forward
