A local biologist needs a program to predict population growth. the inputs would be: the initial number of organisms, as an int

the rate of growth (a real number greater than 1), as a float the number of hours it takes to achieve this rate, as an int a number of hours during which the population grows, as an int

"A local biologist needs a program to predict population growth. the inputs would be..." The resultant code is

tp=sp

hours = 1

while (hours < t):

tp *= g

hours += r

print("The total population is " + str(int(tp)))

# the call function

<h3>What is a program?</h3>

Generally, a program is simply defined as programming written into a computer or other equipment in order to do a certain task

In conclusion, to write a program that takes these inputs and displays a prediction of the total population must consider the parameters and the code platform (python), Hence

# on python interface required library is explored

import math

# describe the functions needed

def prediction():

sp = int(input("Enter the initial number of organism: "))

g = float(input("Enter the rate of growth [a real number > 0]: "))

while(g<1):

print ("Invalid.. growth rate.")

g = float(input("Enter the rate of growth [a real number > 0]: "))

r = int(input("Enter the number of hours to achieve the rate of growth: "))

t = int(input("Enter the total hours of growth: "))

tp=sp

hours = 1

while (hours < t):

# the calculation for tp

tp *= g

hours += r

print("The total population is " + str(int(tp)))

#call the created function

A local biologist needs a program to predict population growth. The inputs would be: 1. The initial number of organisms 2. The rate of growth (a real number greater than 1) 3. The number of hours it takes to achieve this rate 4. A number of hours during which the population grows. For example, one might start with a population of 500 organisms, a growth rate of 2, and a growth period to achieve this rate of 6 hours. Assuming that none of the organisms die, this would imply that this population would double in size every 6 hours. Thus, after allowing 6 hours for growth, we would have 1000 organisms, and after 12 hours we would have 2000 organisms. Write a program that takes these inputs and displays a prediction of the total population.
