Q. 1 BITS Pilani Dubai wants to develop a frequency distribution for the given marks of 5M
students obtained in the compre examination. Assuming the data contains 100
positive integers in the range of 1 to 50, write a function to print the number of times
each integer marks occurs in the data.

Q. 2 BITS Pilani wants to develop a software to calculate total salary for each employee. 5M
If the Basic Salary(basic) is less than or equal to 10000 then HRA = 10% of the
basic, DA = 31% of the basic and Employee provident fund is 12% of the basic +
DA. If the basic Salary is less than or equal to 20000 then HRA = 20% and DA =
35% of the basic and Employee provident fund is 12% of the basic + DA. If the
basic Salary is greater than 20000 then HRA = 24% and DA = 50% of the basic and
Employee provident fund (EPF) is 12% of the basic + DA.

WACP to find the total salary of an employee and it should handle all the
conditions. Formula to compute the total salary is Basic + HRA+DA+EPF.

Q. 3 1 1 1 1 5M
