Lab questions:

QUESTION 1 (20 marks)

This question is to compute the membership price for a person based on the type of purchase (one time entry or
multiple entry) and their age group (Kid, Youth, and Senior).

1. Your program should first ask the person which type of purchase they want: (1) one time entry or (2)
multiple entry.
2. Your program should then ask the person to select the correct again group: (1) Kid; (2) Youth; or (3)
Senior.
3. You then should compute the fare as follows:

One time entry is $25.50; Multiple entry is $35.00.

If the person is a kid or senior, the fair should be discounted by 40%.

4. After the input, print out the computed fare in the following format:

Total amount due: $25.50 [one time entry (full fee)]

Total amount due: $35.00 [multiple entry (full fee)]

Total amount due: $15.30 [one time entry (reduced fee)]

Total amount due: $21.00 [multiple entry (reduced fee])]

------------------------ Example output 1 ------------------------

(User inputs shown in red)

(1) One time entry or (2) Multiple entry

Enter 1 or 2: 2
Select Age Range:
(1) Kid
(2) Youth
(3) Senior
Enter 1, 2, or 3: 1
Total amount due: $21.00 [multiple entry (reduced fee)]

------------------------ Example output 2 ------------------------

(User inputs shown in red)

(1) One time entry or (2) Multiple entry

Enter 1 or 2: 1
Select Age Range:
(1) Kid

Enter 1 or 2: 1
Select Age Range:
(1) Kid
(2) Youth
(3) Senior
Enter 1, 2, or 3: 3
Total amount due: $15.30 [one time entry (reduced fee)]

QUESTION 2 (20 marks)

The goal is to find the maximum odd number from a sequence of positive numbers entered by the user.

Stop prompting the user for numbers after they enter a negative number.

1.Repeatedly prompt the user to enter positives numbers.

2. Keep track of the largest odd number entered by the user?

Hint: How do you know if a number is odd? Any number modulus two that results in a 1 is an odd
number.

For example: 5 % 2 = 1 (odd), 4 % 2 = 0 (even), 12 %2 = 0 (even), 101%2=1 (odd)

3. When the user enters a negative number, stop and print out the largest odd number entered.

4. If the user does not enter an odd number, output 0 as the output and print “No odd number was
provided”.

------------------------ Example output 1 ------------------------

(User inputs shown in red)

Keep entering positive integer

To quit, input a negative integer
Enter a number : 10

Enter a number : 11
Enter a number : 103
Enter a number : 99
Enter a number : 88
Enter a number : -1
Largest odd number: 103

------------------------ Example output 2 ------------------------

(User inputs shown in red)

Keep entering positive integer

To quit, input a negative integer
Enter a number : 99
Enter a number : 109

Enter a number : 44
Enter a number : 8008
Enter a number : 9387
Enter a number : 33
Enter a number : 99
Enter a number : 806
Enter a number : -1
Largest odd number: 9387

------------------------ Example output 3 ------------------------

(User inputs shown in red)

Keep entering positive integer

To quit, input a negative integer
Enter a number : -1
Largest odd number: 0 <- No odd number was provided.

QUESTION 3 (30 marks)

Draw a triangle based on a number between 5-20 that the user provides.
1. Ask the user to input a number between 5 and 20
If the number they input is not between 5 and 20, ask again until it is.

2. Draw a triangle as shown below.

------------------------ Example output 1 ------------------------
(User inputs shown in red)

Enter size between 5 and 20: 2

Enter size between 5 and 20: 21
Enter size between 5 and 20: 5
\ <- 1 a single '\'
-\ <- 2 1 '-' followed by a '\'
--\ <- 3 2 '-' followed by a '\'
---\ <- 4 .
----\ <- 5 .
-----| <- 6 5 '-' followed by a '|'
----/ <- 7 4 '-' followed by a '/'
---/ <- 8 3 '-' followed by a '/'
--/ <- 9 .
-/ <- 10 1 '-' followed by a '/'

QUESTION 4 (30marks)

This task is to help you with while-loops, for-loops, and summing values.

Rolling dice is a random process – the values for each dice can be 1 to 6. However, the expected value of the

sum of two dice is 7. This can be observed by rolling two dice many times and computing the average of the

results. As the number of dice rolls approaches "infinity," the average will converge to the "expected value."

Task 3 is to code this up.

Your task should do the following:

1. Ask the user to enter the number of times they would like to roll the two dice (let's call this N).

2. Loop N times – at each loop, select two random numbers between 1-6 to simulate dice rolls.

3. Print out the two dice values, their sum, and the current roll iteration (starting from 1).

4. When the loop completes, print the average value (with precision 2) of all the dice (i.e., add up all the

rolls and divide by N).

5. Ask the user if they'd like to do this again. If they input 'Y' or 'y', go back to step 1.
