Colouring Book Having spent the last couple of hours grading assignments, I decide it’s time for a break. I take out my favourite colouring book, turn to a random page I haven’t coloured in yet, and lay it on my desk. I then take out all my n crayons and line them up on the desk (it’s a very long desk). The colour of the ith crayon is a string c[i] (e.g. "blue"). Many of the crayons have the same colour. In fact, no matter how many crayons I have, there are at most 30 distinct colours amongst them. To start colouring, I always take a sublist (see Q1 for a definition) of the crayons laid on the desk and put away the rest (too many options can be overwhelming and can lead to indecision). I take a look at the line art in front of me and wonder, “How many different colours do I need to make this look great? One? Two? Maybe three?”. Now you understand my dilemma and are fully aware of my indecision. You kindly decide to help me out by telling me for every number k, if I were to use k…
public static String pancakeScramble(String text) This nifty little problem is taken from the excellent Wolfram Challenges problem site where you can also see examples of what the result should be for various arguments. Given a text string, construct a new string by reversing its first two characters, then reversing the first three characters of that, and so on, until the last round where you reverse your entire current string
Revorse the vewels def reverse vowele(text): Given a text string, create and return a new string constructed by finding all its vowels (in this problem, 'aeiouAEIOU') and reversing their order, while keeping all other characters exactly as they were in their original positions. Furthermore, the capitalization of each position must remain the same as it was in the original text. For example, reversing the vowels of 'Ilkka' should produce 'Alkki' instead of 'alkkI'. Results of applying this operation to perfectly ordinary English sentences often comically resemble pig latin imitations of other languages. Along with many possible ways to perform this dance, one straightforward way to reverse the vowels starts by appending the vowels of text into a separate list, and initializing the result to an empty string. Then, loop through all characters of the original text. Whenever the current character is a vowel, pop one from the end of the list of the vowels. Convert that vowel to either upper-…

Write in C Language Spilitology Yosef is a peculiar fellow. He introduced the idea to study a string by splitting it into two, and he called it Splitology. Why split a string? We do not know. Didn’t we say that Yosef is a weird one? Yosef is interested in one particular type of string, a palindrome. A palindrome is a string that is the same for both forwards and backwards. Example of palindrome strings are “ada”, “taat”, and “radar”. On the other hand, string such as “taman” is not a palindrome; notice that “taman” becomes “namat” if read backwardsand it’s not the same as “taman”. As the idea of Splitology is still new, Yosef is investigating whether a string can be split into two non-empty strings such that each string is a palindrome. For example, the string “malamini” can be split into “malam” and “ini” while both of them are palindrome. Another example is “ababab”. It can be split into “aba” and “bab”, and both of them are palindrome. Note that “ababab” can also be split into…

Revorse the vewels def reverse_vowels(text): Given a text string, create and return a new string constructed by finding all its vowels (for simplicity, in this problem vowels are the letters found in the string 'aeiouAEIOU') and reversing their order, while keeping all other characters exactly as they were in their original positions. However, to make the result look prettier, the capitalization of each moved vowel must be the same as that of the vowel that was originally in the target position. For example, reversing the vowels of 'Ilkka' should produce 'Alkki' instead of 'alkkI'. Applying this operation to random English sentences seems to occasionally give them a curious pseudo-Mediterranean vibe. Along with many possible other ways to perform this square dance, one straightforward way to reverse the vowels starts with collecting all vowels of text into a separate list, and initializing the result to an empty string. After that, iterate through all positions of the original text.…
