Explanation of Solution
File access methods:
The data contents that are present in a file can be accessed in the following two ways:
- Sequential access
- Random access or direct access.
Difference between Sequential access and Random access:
| Sequential access | Random access |
| In sequential access method, the contents of the file are accessed from the beginning to the end. | In random access or direct access method, the content of the file are accessed directly. |
| The contents of the file can be read only in order; skipping contents between files is not possible... |

What is the difference between sequential access and random access?
A common memory matching game played by young children is to start with a deck of cards that contain identical pairs. For example, given six cards in the deck, two might be labeled 1, two labeled 2, and two labeled 3. The cards are shuffled and placed face down on the table. A player then selects two cards that are face down, turns them face up, and if the cards match, they are left face up. If the two cards do not match, they are returned to their original face down position. The game continues until all cards are face up. Write a program that plays the memory matching game. Use 16 cards that are laid out in a 4 4 square and are labeled with pairs of numbers from 1 to 8. Your program should allow the player to specify the cards that he or she would like to select through a coordinate system. For example, in the following layout: 1 2 3 4 1 8 * * * 2 * * * * 3 * 8 * * 4 * * * * all of the face down cards are indicated by *. The pairs of 8 that are face up are at coordinates (1,1) and…
Arithmetic Exception
Arman has a shop where he provides stuff on rent. The whole payment system is computerised. A customer has to enter the item name, item type, cost, and the number of days they have taken the item for rent. The system then tells them the cost per day. But there is a problem with the machine that if the number of days entered is not an integer value then the system would crash. To handle this, Arman decided to upgrade the software and use exception handling in case the customer entered any invalid input it should display " Number of days x is invalid".Write a C++ program to find the item cost per day with the cost for n days given. The arithmetic exception has to be thrown if the n is less than or equal to zero.Strictly adhere to the Object-Oriented specifications given in the problem statement. All class names, member variable names, and function names should be the same as specified in the problem statement.The class Item has the following private data members.…

- Write these in Pseudocode #1a – In pseudocode, write a call to a function that passes 1 Integer variable and 1 Integer array, and saves a Boolean value in return. #1b – In pseudocode, write the function that accepts 1 Integer and 1 Integer array and returns a Boolean. In the function, search the Integer array with a for-loop, and if the Integer parameter is found in the array, return false. If the Integer parameter is not found, return true. #2a – In pseudocode, write a call to a module that passes 1 Integer variable, 1 Real variable, 1 String constant, and 1 String literal as arguments. #2b – In pseudocode, write the module header that accepts 1 Integer, 1 Real, and 2 Strings as parameters. #3 – This pseudocode has multiple problems.

Remember N! is the product of all the numbers from 1 to N inclusive, that is 1 x 2 x 3 x (N – 1) x N. It is defined as 1 for N = 0 and is undefined for values less than 0. The programs first requests the user to input the value of N (display a prompt first so the user knows what to do). If the input value is less than 0, the program is to display “N! undefined for values less than 0” and then requests the user to input the value of N again. If the value input is non-negative, it is to compute N! using a recursive function, that is one that calls itself. You are to have your name, the assignment number, and a brief description of the program in comments at the top of your program. Since this is an assembly language program, I expect to see comments on almost every line of code in the program. Also make the code neat: line up the command fields, the register fields, and the comment…arrow_forward
