We will be taking a lot of assumptions in this question. Assuming that Landan did not accidentally drop his laptop, as a technician, what I would want to check first is the BIOS settings. There are a couple of issues that can cause this error. These issues may include a boot sector virus that erased the whole hard drive, a bad windows installation, or even a loose cable. Before I check on the BIOS settings, I would request him to unplug any external hard disks. He might have been watching his movies from the hard disk and the disk being connected might be the one causing the error. A wrong boot order in the BIOS settings may be giving priority to another boot source disk like the external hard disk mentioned. I should be able to take Landan through steps that he needs to take to make his hard disk priority. I would also check for corrupt sectors by running the inbuilt CHKDSK tool. If these options don’t work, I would consider checking the hardware itself for further diagnostics.

Hard drive might not be detected due to various reasons. Some problem can be fixed only by the hardware engineer or technical person, few other can be fixed by self by “troubleshooting”. The possible reason could be, BIOS might not have switched on the hard drive so it has not detected. Sometimes data cable might be unplugged.

So you can try replacing one another cable. Another possible reason could be virus. Virus might have corrupted all the data in the hard drive. So anti-virus can be installed to rectify this.

PYTHON1.)Assume that price is an integer variable whose value is the price (in US currency) in cents of an item. Write a stateme
hammer [34]

Answer:

#part 1

#read the amount

amount=int(input("enter the amount:"))

#find the dollars

doll=int(amount/100)

// find the cents

cent=amount%100

#print output

print("{} dollars and {} cents.".format(doll,cent))

#part 2

#read a floating point

temperature=float(input("enter the temperature:"))

#part 3

#read a word

firstWord=input("enter a word:")

Explanation:

In part 1, read amount and the find the dollars with the help of "/" operator. Then find the cents with "%" operator and print both.In part 2, read a point and cast it to float then assign it to variable "temperature".In part 3,Read a word and assign it to variable "firstWord".

Output:

enter the amount:4321

43 dollars and 21 cents.

enter the temperature:12.5

enter a word:hello

Define a void function that calculates the sum (+), difference (-), product (*), quotient (/), and modulus (%) of two integer nu
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void multipurpose(int &num1,int &num2,int &add,int &subt,int &multi,int &divi,int &modulo )

{

   add=num1+num2;//adding two numbers...

   subt=abs(num1-num2);//subtracting two numbers...

   multi=num1*num2;//multiplying two numbers...

   divi=num1/num2;//Finding quotient of two numbers...

   modulo=num1%num2;//Finding modulo of two numbers...

}

void print(int add,int sub,int divi,int multi,int modulo) //function to print the values.

{

   cout<<"The addition is "<<add<<endl<<"The subtraction is "<<sub<<endl

   <<"The quotient is "<<divi<<endl<<"The multiplication is "<<multi<<endl

   <<"The modulus is "<<modulo<<endl;

}

int main() {

   int a,b,sum=0,mult=0,divi=0,sub=0,modulo=0;

   cin>>a>>b;

   multipurpose(a,b,sum,sub,mult,divi,modulo);

   print(sum,sub,divi,mult,modulo);

return 0;

}

Enter the numbers

12 12

The addition is 24

The subtraction is 0

The quotient is 1

The multiplication is 144

The modulus is 0

Explanation:

I have created a function multipurpose that has a argument list of two numbers ,and variables for addition,subtraction,multiplication,Division,Modulus and these all are passed by reference.Since the function is of type void so it cannot return anything so the only way to store the result is by passing the variables to store the results by  reference.

The other function print has the arguments of all the results here you can pass them by value or by reference because you only need to print the results.
