Answer:

The NOT operator can be useful to excludes unwanted items (or irrelevant items).

Explanation:

In a lot of computer languages, the "!" symbol stands for the Boolean operator "NOT".

The NOT operator can be useful to excludes unwanted items (or irrelevant items).

Suppose you want to check if two conditions are not equal to each other, and when that condition is true, you can control some specific the outcome, or let something happen...

if ( condition1 != condition2 ) then

whatever you want done....

end if

A loop that will output every other name in the names list.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

names = ['Peter', 'Bruce', 'Steve', 'Tony', 'Natasha', 'Clint', 'Wanda', 'Hope', 'Danny', 'Carol']

numbers = [100, 50, 10, 1, 2, 7, 11, 17, 53, -8, -4, -9, -72, -64, -80]

for index, element in enumerate(names):

if index % 2 == 0:

 print(element)

for num in numbers:

 if num >= 0:

   print(num, end = " ")

count = 0

for i in numbers:

 count += i

avg = count/len(numbers)

print("sum = ", count)

print("average = ", avg)

for num in numbers:

 if num % 2 != 0:

   print(num, end = " ")

Explanation:

I'm stuck on the last two.. I have to do those too for an assignment.

Given parameters b and h which stand for the base and the height of an isosceles triangle (i.e., a triangle that has two equal s
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The area of the triangle is calculated as thus:

Area = 0.5 * b * h

To calculate the perimeter of the triangle, the measurement of the slant height has to be derived;

Let s represent the slant height;

Dividing the triangle into 2 gives a right angled triangle;

The slant height, s is calculated using Pythagoras theorem as thus

s = \sqrt{b^2 + h^2}

The perimeter of the triangle is then calculated as thus;

Perimeter = s + s + b

Perimeter = \sqrt{b^2 + h^2} + \sqrt{b^2 + h^2} +b

Perimeter = 2\sqrt{b^2 + h^2} + b

For the volume of the cone,

when the triangle is spin, the base of the triangle forms the diameter of the cone;

Volume = \frac{1}{3} \pi * r^2 * h

Where r = \frac{1}{2} * diameter

So, r = \frac{1}{2}b

So, Volume = \frac{1}{3} \pi * (\frac{b}{2})^2 * h

Base on the above illustrations, the program is as follows;

#include<iostream>

#include<cmath>

using namespace std;

void CalcArea(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Area

double Area = 0.5 * b * h;

//Print Area

cout<<"Area = "<<Area<<endl;

}

void CalcPerimeter(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Perimeter

double Perimeter = 2 * sqrt(pow(h,2)+pow((0.5 * b),2)) + b;

//Print Perimeter

cout<<"Perimeter = "<<Perimeter<<endl;

}

void CalcVolume(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Volume

double Volume = (1.0/3.0) * (22.0/7.0) * pow((0.5 * b),2) * h;

//Print Volume

cout<<"Volume = "<<Volume<<endl;

}

int main()

{

double b, h;

//Prompt User for input

cout<<"Base: ";

cin>>b;

cout<<"Height: ";

cin>>h;

//Call CalcVolume function

CalcVolume(b,h);

//Call CalcArea function

CalcArea(b,h);

//Call CalcPerimeter function

CalcPerimeter(b,h);

 

return 0;

}

Anisha was learning ‘for’ and ‘while’ loop. Help her understand why for and while loops are called entry controlled loops.
Andrew [12]

Entry controlled loop - <u>The loop which has a condition check at the entrance of the loop, the loop executes only and only if the condition is satisfied is called as entry control loop.</u>

So, for and while loops are its examples.
