2. Multiplication Table
Print on the console the multiplication table for the numbers 1 to 10 in the format
"{first multiplier} * {second multiplier} = {result}".

Sample Input and Output

Input Output
(no input) 1 * 1 = 1
1 * 2 = 2
1 * 3 = 3
1 * 4 = 4
1 * 5 = 5
1 * 6 = 6
1 * 7 = 7
1 * 8 = 8
1 * 9 = 9
1 * 10 = 10
...
10 * 1 = 10
10 * 2 = 20
10 * 3 = 30
10 * 4 = 40
10 * 5 = 50
10 * 6 = 60
10 * 7 = 70
10 * 8 = 80
10 * 9 = 90
10 * 10 = 100

Hints and Guidelines

1. Create 2 nested for loops to iterate over each possible value of the two multipliers from 1 to 10:

2. Find the product of the two multipliers and print the result:

3. Combinations
Write a function that calculates how many solutions in natural numbers (including zero) have the equation:
x1 + x2 + x3 = n
The number n is an integer and is entered from the console.

Sample Input and Output
Input Output Comments Input Output Input Output
25 351 We generate all combinations of 3 numbers, the 20 231 5 21
first being:
0+0+0=0, but since it is not equal to 25, we
continue:
0+0+1=1 – also not 25, etc.
We come to the first valid combination:
0 + 0 + 25 = 25, we increase the number of valid
combinations by 1, the second valid combination
is:
0 + 1 + 24 = 25
The third:
0 + 2 + 23 = 25, etc.
After generating all possible combinations, the
number of valid ones is 351.

Hints and Guidelines

1. Read the input data - an integer n entered by the user, and store it in a variable;
2. Create 3 nested for loops to iterate every possible value of one of the 3 numbers in the equation:

3. Check the innermost nested loop for the values of x1, x2, and x3 in each iteration. For the equation to be
valid, its sum must be equal to n. Create a combinations_count variable to store the number of valid
combinations and add to it each time you generate one:

4. Finally, print the number of valid combinations.

4. Sum of Two Numbers

Write a function that checks all possible combinations of a pair of numbers in the interval of two given numbers.
The output prints which in order is the first combination whose sum of the numbers equals a given magic number.
If there is no combination matching the condition, a message is printed that none was found.

Input Data
The input is read from the console and consists of three lines:
 First line - beginning of the interval - an integer in the range [1...999]
 Second line - end of the interval - an integer in the range [greater than the first one...1000]
 Third line - a magic number - an integer in the range [1...10000]
Output Data
One line is printed on the console:
 If a combination is found whose sum of numbers equals the magic number:
o "Combination N:{sequence number} ({first number} + {second number} = {magic number})"
 If no combination matching the condition is found:
o "{number of all combinations} combinations - neither equals {magic number}"

5. Traveling
Annie loves to travel and wants to visit several different destinations this year. When she chooses a destination, she
will decide how much money she will need to get there and start saving. When she has saved enough, she will be
able to travel.
Each time, the console will first read the destination and the minimum budget (a floating-point number) that will
be needed for the trip.
Then several sums (floating-point numbers) will be read that Annie saves by working and when she manages to
save enough for the trip, she will leave, and it should be printed on the console:
"Going to {destination}!"
When she has visited all the destinations she wants, instead of a destination she will enter "End" and the program
will end.

6. Building
Write a function that outputs on the console the room numbers in a building (in descending order) when the
following conditions are met:
 On each even floor, there are only offices
 On each odd floor, there are only apartments
 Each apartment is marked as follows: A{floor number}{apartment number}, apartment numbers start from
0
 Each office is marked as follows: O{floor number}{office number}, office numbers also start from 0
 There are always apartments on the top floor, and they are bigger than the others, that is why they have 'L'
instead of 'A' in front of their number. If there is only one floor, there are only big apartments!
Two integers are read from the console – the number of floors and the number of rooms per floor.
