Write a function called lucky_sevens that takes in one #parameter, a string variable named a_string. Your function #should retur

n True if there are exactly three '7's in #a_string. If there are less than three or more than three #'7's, the function should return False.
For example:
# - lucky_sevens("happy777bday") should return True.
# - lucky_sevens("h7app7ybd7ay") should also return True.
# - lucky_sevens("happy77bday") should return False.
# - lucky_sevens("h777appy777bday") should also return False.
Hint: Remember in Chapter 3.3, we covered how to use a loop to look at each character in a string. #Write your function here!
Below are some lines of code that will test your function.
You can change the value of the variable(s) to test your function with different inputs.
If your function works correctly, this will originally #print: True, True, False, False, each on their own line.

Answer:

Here is the Python program:

def lucky_sevens(a_string):  # function to return true if exactly 3 sevens

   counter = 0  # counts the number of times 7 occurs in the a_string

   for i in a_string:  # loops through the a_string

       if i == "7":  # if 7 occurs in the a_string

           counter = counter + 1  #counter increases by 1 every time 7 occurs

   if counter == 3:  #if 7 occurs exactly 3 times in a_string

       return True  #returns true

   else:  # 7 occurs less or more than 3 times in a_string

       return False  # returns false

#tests the function lucky_sevens with different inputs      

print(lucky_sevens("happy777bday"))

print(lucky_sevens("h7app7ybd7ay"))

print(lucky_sevens("happy77bday"))

print(lucky_sevens("h777appy777bday"))

 

Explanation:

This program has a method lucky_sevens that has a parameter a_string which contains a string of characters. The counter variable stores the number of times 7 occurs in the string. The loop has variable i that works like an index and moves through the entire string looking for 7 in the a_string. If element at i-th index is 7 then the counter variable increments by 1. It increments by 1 at every occurrence of 7. Then if condition checks if the value of count is equal to 3. Which means that 7 occurred 3 times in the a_string. If the condition is true then True is displayed otherwise False is displayed on output screen.

The screenshot is attached below

Explanation:

The below program check balence of paranthesis using stack.

if the input charecter is ( then push to stack

if the input charecter is ) then pop top element and compair both elements for match.

Program:

public class Main

{

static class stack // create class for stack

{

int top=-1; // initialy stack is empty so top = -1

char items[] = new char[50]; // Create an array for stack to store stack elements

 

void push(char a) // Function push element to stack

{

if (top == 49) // chack stack is full ?

{

System.out.println("Stack full");

}

else

{

items[++top] = a; // increment the array index and store the element

}

}

 

char pop() // function to return the elements from stack

{

if (top == -1) // check the stack is empty

{

System.out.println("Empty stack");

return '\0';

}

else

{

char element = items[top]; // return the top element

top--; // Decrement the array index by one

return element;

}

}

 

boolean isEmpty() // Check the stack is empty or not

{

return (top == -1) ? true : false;

}

}

static boolean isMatch(char character1, char character2) // Check the input charecters are matching pairs or not

{

if (character1 == '(' && character2 == ')') // If they match return true

return true;

else

return false;

}

 

static boolean isBalanced(String parantheses) // check the input string is balenced or not

{

char[] exp = new char[parantheses.length()]; // Create a charecter array

for (int i = 0; i < parantheses.length(); i++) { // Convert the string parantheses to charecter array

exp[i] = parantheses.charAt(i);

}

stack st=new stack(); // Declare an empty character stack    

for(int i=0;i<exp.length;i++)

{  

if (exp[i] == '('))   // if input charecter is '(' push to stack

st.push(exp[i]);

if (exp[i] == ')') // if input charecter is ')' pop top element from stack

{

if (st.isEmpty())

{

return false;

}

 

else if ( !isMatch(st.pop(), exp[i]) ) // Call isMatch function

{

return false;

}

}

 

}

 

if (st.isEmpty())

return true; //balanced

else

{

return false; //not balanced

}

}

 

 

public static void main(String[] args)

{

 

System.out.println(isBalanced("()()()")); // Output true if string is balenced

 

}

 

}

Answer:

A. data-link layer

Explanation:

Data-link layer is the first layer and allows a contiguous sequence of bits to be transmitted through the network.

On top of it is the Network Layer and it handles the task of routing network messages from one computer to another.

Then comes the Transport Layer which is the basic layer at which one network computer communicates with another network computer.
