Chapter 6, Problem 7PP

This project is the same as Programming Project 6, except that in this project your program will use a more sophisticated method for choosing the answer to a question. When your program reads a question, it counts the number of characters in the question and stores the number in a variable named count. It then responds with answer number count % ANSWERS. The first answer in the file is answer number 0, the next is answer number 1, then 2, and so forth. ANSWERS is defined in a constant declaration, as shown next, so that it is equal to the number of answers in the answer file:

const int ANSWERS = 8;

This way you can change the answer file so that it contains more or fewer answers and you need change only the constant declaration to make your program work correctly for a different number of possible answers. Assume that the answer listed first in the file will always be the following, even if the answer file is changed:

I'm not sure, but I think you will find the answer in Chapter #N.

When replacing the two characters #N with a number, use the number (count % NUMBER_OF_CHAPTERS + 1), where count is the variable discussed above, and NUMBER_OF_CHAPTERS is a global named constant defined to be equal to the number of chapters in this book.

The manager of a football stadium wants you to write a program that calculates the total ticket sales after each game. There are four types of tickets—box, sideline, premium, and general admission. After each game, data is stored in a file in the following form: ticketPrice numberOfTicketsSold … Sample data are shown below: 250.75 5750 100.50 28000 50.25 35750 25.00 18750 The first value indicates that the ticket price is Php 250.75 and that 5750 tickets were sold at that price. Output the total number of tickets sold and the total sale amount using c++ compiler. Format your output with two decimal places.
JAVA PPROGRAM   Write a program that prompts the user to enter a file name, then opens the file in text mode and reads names. The file contains one name on each line. The program then compares each name with the name that is at the end of the file in a symmetrical position. For example if the file contains 10 names, the name #1 is compared with name #10, name #2 is compared with name #9, and so on. If you find matches you should print the name and the line numbers where the match was found. While entering the file name, the program should allow the user to type quit to exit the program. If the file with a given name does not exist, then display a message and allow the user to re-enter the file name. The file may contain up to 100 names. You can use an array or ArrayList object of your choosing, however you can only have one array or ArrayList. Input validation: a) If the file does not exist, then you should display a message "File 'somefile.txt' is not found." and allow the…
