Quadratic Root Solver For a general quadratic equation y = ax? + bx + c, the roots can be classified into three categories depending upon the value of the discriminant which is given by b2 - 4ac First, if the discriminant is equal to 0, there is only one real root. Then, if the discriminant is a positive value, there are two roots which are real and unequal. The roots can be computed as follows: -b+ Vb? – 4ac 2a Further, if the discriminant is a negative value, then there are two imaginary roots. In this case, the roots are given by b ь? - 4ас 2a 2a Programming tasks: A text file, coeff.txt has the following information: coeff.txt 3 4 4 4 1 4 Each line represents the values of a, b and c, for a quadratic equation. Write a program that read these coefficient values, calculate the roots of each quadratic equation, and display the results. Your program should perform the following tasks: • Check if the file is successfully opened before reading • Use loop to read the file from main…
Nuts and bolts You are given a collection of n bolts of different widths and n corresponding nuts. You are allowed to try a nut and bolt together, from which you can determine whether the nut is larger than the bolt, smaller than the bolt, or matches the bolt exactly. However, there is no way to compare two nuts together or two bolts together. The problem is to match each bolt to its nut. Design an algorithm for this problem with average-case efficiency in (n log n).
Bus timetables specify to the second the exact arrival and departure time of each bus on each stop. You need to pay for the full fare of every bus you ride and different bus lines charge different fees , but they are flat fees (independent of distance travelled on the line) A travel plan is a sequence of stop-time pairs where stop is a location of a bus stop and time is when we arrive at that stop. The plan is feasible if for any two consecutive pairs (a, t) and (b, t′) in the plan there exists a bus that departs after t and arrives at b at exactly t′. That is, a travel plan does not allow us to walk between stops. Assuming that no two buses arrive at the same time at the same stop, a feasible plan uniquely identifies the bus lines that we need to take to realize the plan. The cost of the plan is the sum of the fares we need to pay. Your task is to design an efficient algorithm that given a departure time t, an arrival time t′, an origin stop a and a destination stop b, finds the…
A deck of cards contains 52 cards with four suits: club, diamond, heart and spade ranging in values from 2, ... to 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace. Ace has the highest value in the same suit. Cards can be compared using their face values. A card with higher face value is bigger than a card with lower face value. If two cards have the same face value, then the suit determines the order. Club is smaller than diamond which is smaller than heart which is smaller than spade. For example: club 2 < diamond 2 < heart 2 < spade 2 if compared.Write an interactive Java program that allows you play cards with a computer. For this project, we are going to focus on one suit of the deck of cards. There are only 13 cards (value: 2, ... to 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace) in a suit. To play:(a). You first pick a suit at random from the four suits (club, diamond, heart and spade), and display the suit. (b) Then you randomly draw a card from the suit, and let computer draw a card from the same…
Tiling: The precondition to the problem is that you are given threeintegers n, i, j, where i and j are in the range 1 to 2n. You have a 2n by 2n squareboard of squares. You have a sufficient number of tiles each with the shape . Your goalis to place nonoverlapping tiles on the board to cover each of the 2n × 2n tiles except forthe single square at location i, j. Give a recursive algorithm for this problem in whichyou place one tile yourself and then have four friends help you. What is your base case?

Show the suit and face value of the user card. Then the program acts as a card dealer which randomly draws another card and displays the card (again showing the suit and face value of…
Problem Description Learn Clojure In this problem, each person in the social network takes a specific time to send the message(time is an integer). A specific newbie in react(let's call him NB) wants to post a question to a ninja(let's call him NJ) on the network. Find out how long a specific message takes to reach NJ from NB. The social network is given as the input as follows. The first line is a number which is the number of people in the social network. The next following lines are the actual members of the social network whose names are written in separate lines. Following that is the number of connections, followed by a new line separated list of connections given as . Then on the next line is the person who wants to send the message(NB's id in our case) and on the next line is the person who is the intended recipient(NJ's id). The output should be a single line consisting of the time it takes to send the message through or -1 if the message can't be sent. INPUT FORMAT total…
Artificial intelligence (Question - 6) ======================= One variation on the game of nim is described in Luger. The game begins with a single pile of stones. The move by a player consists of dividing a pile into two piles that contain an unequal number of stones. For example, if one pile contains six stones, it could be subdivided into piles of five and one, or four and two, but not three and three. The first player who cannot make a move loses the game.(6.1) Draw the complete game tree for this version of Nim if the start state consists of six stones.(6.2) Perform a minimax evaluation for this game. Let 1 denote a win and 0 a loss.
Description Implement a Taylor series approximation of some mathematical functions. In mathematics, the Taylor series is a way of approximating transcendental functions such as sin x or log x. In this approach, we can approximate a mathematical function as closely as we might want to by adding together numbers that get us closer and closer to the true value of the function. For example, the exponential function e" can be approximated as: 73 e" = 1+x + 2! 3! - nl and the sin function can be approximated as: (-1)" 73 sin z = x - 3! „5 77 2n+1 (2n + 1)! 5! 7! n=0 The more terms we include in our approximation, the better an approximation we get of sin x. In this assignment, you must implement Taylor series approximations for these two functions. Your functions should take two parameters: the value of x and the number of terms to use in the approximation: /** * Calculate an approximate value for the exponential function. @param the value to raise e to the power of (i.e., e to the x) *…
Python Knapsack Problem: imagine you are carrying a knapsack with capacity to hold a total of weight C. You are selecting among n items with values A={a_1, a_2, ... , a_n} and associated weights W={w_1, w_2, ... , w_n}. Here the weights and values are all positive. You wish to maximize the total value of the items you select not exceeding the given weight capacity, example, maximize sum_{a in A} such that sum_{w in W} <= C. Note that you can only select your items once. Reformulate this as a bottom-up dynamic programming problem as follows. Define K_{i,j} as the highest possible value sum considering items 1 through i and total weight capacity j (j <= C). What is the base case i.e. K_{0,j} for all j and K_{i,0} for all i. What is the loop statement?
Correct answer will be upvoted else Multiple Downvoted. Don't submit random answer. Computer science. anglers have recently gotten back from a fishing excursion. The I-th angler has gotten a fish of weight man-made intelligence. Anglers will flaunt the fish they got to one another. To do as such, they initially pick a request where they show their fish (every angler shows his fish precisely once, in this way, officially, the request for showing fish is a stage of integers from 1 to n). Then, at that point, they show the fish they discovered by the picked request. At the point when an angler shows his fish, he may either become glad, become dismal, or stay content. Assume an angler shows a fish of weight x, and the most extreme load of a formerly shown fish is y (y=0 if that angler is quick to show his fish). Then, at that point: in the event that x≥2y, the angler becomes cheerful; in the event that 2x≤y, the angler becomes miserable; in the event that none of these two…
Computer Science Investing in stocks is a way to create assets that are supposed to provide financial security over time. In solving this problem, we assume that an investor buys several shares of stock at a certain price. These shares are going to be sold later on for a different price. Obviously, if the selling price is higher than the acquisition price, the investor makes a profit, registering capital gain. If the shares are sold at a lower price, the investor has a loss, which marks a negative capital gain. This whole process is done over a period of time, and you are required to create a scenario for buying and selling shares. The assumption is that the investor sells shares in the order in which they were purchased. The goal is to calculate the capital gain over time. Suppose that you buy n shares of stock or mutual fund for d dollars each. Later, you sell some of these shares. If the sale price exceeds the purchase price, you have made a profit—a capital gain. On the other…
