Answer:

// Method's name: has_more_zs

// Parameters are text1 and text2 to hold the two phrases to be tested

public static String has_more_zs(String text1, String text2) {

 // Create and initialize z1 to zero

 // Use z1 to count the number of zs in text1

 int z1 = 0;

 // Create and initialize z2 to zero

 // Use z2 to count the number of zs in text2

 int z2 = 0;

 

 //Create a loop to cycle through the characters in text1

 //Increment z1 by one if the current character is a 'z'

 int i = 0;

 while (i < text1.length()) {

  if (text1.charAt(i) == 'z' || text1.charAt(i) == 'Z') {

   z1 += 1;

  }

  i++;

 }

 //Create a loop to cycle through the characters in text2

 //Increment z2 by one if the current character is a 'z'

 

 i = 0; //Re-initialize i to zero

 

 while (i < text2.length()) {

  if (text2.charAt(i) == 'z' || text2.charAt(i) == 'Z') {

   z2 += 1;

  }

  i++;

 }

 

 

 //Using the values of z1 and z2, return the necessary statements

 if (z1 > z2) {

  return "The phrase '" + text1 + "'" + " has more occurences of z than the phrase " + "'" + text2 + "'";

 }

 else if (z1 < z1) {

  return "The phrase '" + text2 + "'" + " has more occurences of z than the phrase " + "'" + text1 + "'";

 }

 else if (z1 == z2) {

  return "The strings have the same number of z";

 }

 else {

  return "Neither string contains the the letter z";

 }

}

Answer:

What if we made a fast game?

Explanation:

The mascot is the person, animal or thing which brings good luck, just like Mario. However, this is not a problem with Sonic the Hedgehog. And the Hedgehog is powerful enough to cross any barrier. Hence tieing the collectibles is not required. And the Hedgehog is quite cute and domestic. But it moves only 10 meters per second if we are considering the maximum speed. Hence, the correct option is certainly what if we made a fast game? And this is option C.

What is the first thing you should do to find a mean and range of data?
KatRina [158]

Answer

To find mean of data add all the numbers in the set of data and divide the sum by the number of addends.

To find range, identify the difference between the highest value and lowest value in the set of data.

Explanation

Mean, mode, median and range are the primary measurements used to get the measures of central tendencies. To get the mean and range; first arrange the data in an ascending order, then identify the highest value and the lowest value in the set. The difference between these two data values gives the range of the set of values. For the mean, add all the set of values and then divide their sum with the number of values in the set of data.

The main path of the Internet along which data travels the fastest is known as the Internet ________. Group of answer choices
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

<em>Internet backbone</em>

Explanation:

The internet backbone is made up of multiple networks from multiple users. It is the central data route between interconnected computer networks and core routers of the Internet on the large scale. This backbone does not have a unique central control or policies, and is hosted by big government, research and academic institutes, commercial organisations etc. Although it is governed by the principle of settlement-free peering, in which providers privately negotiate interconnection agreements, moves have been made to ensure that no particular internet backbone provider grows too large as to dominate the backbone market.
