A number, a, is a power of b if it is divisible by b and a/b is a power of b. Write a function called is_power that takes parameters a and b and returns True if a is a power of b. Note: you will have to think about the base case. After writing your is_power function, include the following test cases in your script to exercise the function and print the results: print("is_power(10, 2) returns: ", is_power(10, 2)) print("is_power(27, 3) returns: ", is_power(27, 3)) print("is_power(1, 1) returns: ", is_power(1, 1)) print("is_power(10, 1) returns: ", is_power(10, 1)) print("is_power(3, 3) returns: ", is_power(3, 3))

Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following function: getScore This function ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. For input validation, do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100. This function should be called by main() once for each of the five scores to be entered. calcAverage This function calculates and display the average of the four highest score. This function should be called just once by main(), by should be passed the five scores. • findLowest This function finds and returns the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage function, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop.
Write a function called numberCompare. This function takes in two parameters (both numbers). If the first parameter is greater than the second, this function returns "First is Greater". If the second parameter is greater than the first, this function returns "Second is Greater" Else the function returns "Numbers are Equal". You will need to add an if statement in your function
Over the years, people have created a few nicknames for me. One that sticks without me telling me to call me that name is "Denck." It works great with anyone whose name ends with an "er". We are going to create a function called "nickName" which takes in one parameter. This parameter stores the name you want to create the nickname for. If the name ends with an er, return the name with the er removed. If the name does not have an er then return the full name back to the program.
Python question, please us a docstring and have comments throughout code Write a function getInteger() that takes two integers num1 and num2 as parameters. If num1 > num2, then the function prints an error message and returns 0. If num1 is equal to num2, the function returns the common value. For cases where num1 < num2, the function prompts the user to enter an integer greater than or equal to num1 and less than or equal to num2 and returns the first valid integer that the user enters. If the user enters something that is not an integer value, the programs should display an error message and re-prompt the user to enter a valid integer Below are some sample executions of the function. Use the while and if-elif statements and a try/except in the solution. Don’t forget to include the docstring and comments. Copy and paste or screen shot the code and the thirteen test cases shown below in your submission. . >>> getInteger(5,4) 5 and 4 are not valid parameters 0…
Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following functions: - getScore– This function ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. For input validation, do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100. This function should be called by main () once for each of the five scores to be entered. - calcAverage – This function calculates and display the average of the four highest score. This function should be called just once by main (), by should be passed the five scores. - findLowest – This function finds and returns the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage function, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop.
Write a value returning function called HasPair. This function accepts three double parameters and checks whether ANY two of the three parameters are equal. If any two parameters are equal, the function returns true; otherwise the function returns false. 2.

This function accepts as parameter and checks whether it is prime or not. If prime the function returns true. Otherwise, function is the number that can be divided by itself and 1 without
I am doing a word guessing game where I have created a function that shuffles a word randomly. However, I want to create a function that will act as a clue when the user presses it; it will display the first word of the jumbled word. For example, if the word is - friends, The Jumbled word would be - siedfrn, with the function I already made. However, in order for users to get some help, they can press a number(4), and the needed function will result in the output to be- fiedsrn.
Implement a function named get_player_selection. This function has parameters for the players number (which will be either 1 or 2), and the number of sticks remaining on the board. For this function you will need to do the following: Use the input function to get the player to type in their selection. Validate the user’s input, printing out a message if they enter an invalid number and continually prompting them until they do enter a valid number. The user may enter any number between 1 and 3, unless there are fewer than 3 sticks remaining, in which case they can only enter between 1 and the number of sticks remaining. As in the example, the input prompt should list the valid range of numbers. Return the (validated) number as an integer (not a string). You should test that this function works by running it in the REPL. Make sure you try different scenarios, like the user entering an invalid number multiple times in a row. After you are done testing and fixing any errors you find,…
Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores. You will ask the user to input each test score individually. When calculating the average, the lowest score in the group is dropped. Your program should use the following functions: void getScore() should ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five scores to be entered. void calcAverage() should calculate and display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores. int findLowest) should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage(), which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop. Void displayAverage() should display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called by calcAverage(). Input Validation: Do not accept test scores lower…
Examples Input 8 Output How about visiting Gibraltar Rock? It is about 8 miles away. Input 30 Output How about visiting Oxnard? It is about 30 miles away. Input 120 Output You provided an invalid distance that is not between 0 and 100 miles. Input -100 Output You provided an invalid distance that is not between 0 and 100 miles. Hints • you can check the type of an input parameter by using the type () function.
Write a function named “hasDashOnBothSides” that accepts parameters of the same as command line arguments (argc and argv). It returns true if all of the arguments have a '-' on both the beginning and ending of the arguments and false otherwise. If it has no argument, it will return true. In addition, this function also returns another boolean value of true when one of the arguments is just a dash ('-') and false otherwise. Please note that you cannot use string class, string methods such length() or size() or any string function such as strlen(). Please use only array notation, pointer to character, and/or pointer arithmetic and make use of the fact that this is a C-string. Please show how you would call and test this function. One simple way is to accept command line arguments or the other is to simply hard-code values of the array and call this function. Please print out the results of what this function returns. If there is no argument, it will return true and false If the argument…
lllustrating your answer using the buggy code below, explain in your own words what it means for variables to be defined “as locally as possible”, and why it is important. This code is intended to print one of two messages depending on whether an integer input is less than a secret number or not. The function, inputInt, correctly prints the given String and then returns a number input by the user.
