UAB - 2005 - Problem 4 - Push Ups With Blaze - Solved Programming Problems

This document describes a programming problem to calculate the number of pushups Blaze does after football games based on the final score. It prompts the user to enter a final score, and then calculates how many pushups Blaze would have done by adding 7 pushups for each touchdown, up to the total score. It provides sample inputs and outputs, the C++ code to solve it using a for loop, and discussions on solutions in other languages like Ruby and Golang.

UAB – 2005: Problem 4: Push


Ups with Blaze

JULY 27, 2009AUGUST 8, 2013 / SHAHAB

At UAB football games, Blaze does push ups after each Blazer score.
After the first Blazer touchdown (and point after), Blaze does 7
push ups. After the second touchdown and point after, the score is
now 14 and Blaze does 14 push ups.

Write a program that calculates how many total push ups Blaze
does during the whole game. Assume that only 7 point touchdowns
(including the point after) occur. Prompt for the final score and
print out how many push ups Blaze has done.

Example 1:
Enter final score: 21
Push ups: 42

Example 2:
Enter final score: 7
Push ups: 7

this a typical beginner’s program for this problem:

#include
int main()
{
int score,i,pushup=0;
printf(“please enter the final score: “);
scanf(“%d”,&score);
printf(“\n”);
if(score%7==0){
for(i=1;i<=score/7;i++){
pushup=pushup+7*i;
}
}
else{
printf(" please enter a multiple of 7.\n");
}
printf("\n");
printf("the total number of push-ups is %d",pushup);
printf("\n");
return 0;
}

I think I have this working in Golang:

package main

import (
“fmt”
)

func main() {
score := 21
tally := tally(score)
fmt.Println(tally)
}

func tally(score int) int {

func tally(score int) int {


div := score / 7
var hm int
for div > 0 {
hm += 7 * div
div -= 1
}
return hm
}

This is my Ruby solution:

print “Final score: ”


score = gets.to_i
touchdowns = score / 7
pushups = 0

(1..touchdowns).each do |i|
i +=
pushups = pushups + 7*i
end
print “Number of push-ups: “, pushups
