Answer:
Explanation:
The following code is written in Python. It creates a program that keeps printing out a menu allowing the user to create shapes. These shapes are saved in an array called shapes. Once the user decides to exit, it prints all of the shapes in the array along with their total area. The output can be seen in the attached picture below. Due to technical difficulties, I have added the code as a txt file below.
Explanation:
I have attached the answer as an image. I can't upload the file as it requires a licensed product and I only used demo version. I can provide the file too if you can give me your vlsig file required to use full software. However, If you just copy along the images on your Visual Studio, you will easily create the files yourself. Answer is provided for both scenarios as part A and part B, one which stops after 1 iteration and the one which loops until 0 height is given.
Answer:
Explanation:
The following code is written in Python. It is a recursive function that tests the first and last character of the word and keeps checking to see if each change would create the palindrome. Finally, printing out the minimum number needed to create the palindrome.
import sys
def numOfSwitches(word, start, end):
if (start > end):
return sys.maxsize
if (start == end):
return 0
if (start == end - 1):
if (word[start] == word[end]):
return 0
else:
return 1
if (word[start] == word[end]):
return numOfSwitches(word, start + 1, end - 1)
else:
return (min(numOfSwitches(word, start, end - 1),
numOfSwitches(word, start + 1, end)) + 1)
word = input("Enter a Word: ")
start = 0
end = len(word)-1
print("Number of switches required for palindrome: " + str(numOfSwitches(word, start, end)))
