In the game of $Mindmaster$, secret codes are created by placing pegs of any of seven different colors into four slots. Colors may be repeated, and no slot may remain empty. 2401 secret codes are possible.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mastermind is a board game that was developed by Mordecai Meirowitz, in 1971. The Code maker sets a secret code, then the Codebreaker attempts to meet the code using logic, deduction. Behind each move, the Code maker provides hints to the Codebreaker. Make the code even more indirect by using multiple pegs of the same color or by leaving one or more peg holes empty. With so many feasible code sequences, every game is confirmed to be a brain teaser.

7 colors with 4 slots and repetition of color are accepted so 7^4 is 2401.

Tanzania [10]
Well, integrity is a must if you are reading anything. So it would be any website that has either a .edu or a .gov at the end of a URL. 

I never suggest Wikipedia for brief, since 100's of people will edit one topic at a time, the answer to what he is looking for is buried in 18 pages about one settler in the United States!

You need to design a data storage scheme for Hayseed Heaven library data system. There are several hundred thousand large data r
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Make use of hash tables

Explanation:

The appropriate thing to use for this should be a hash table.

A Hash Table can be described as a data structure which stores data in an associative manner. In a hash table, data is stored in an array format, where each data value has its own unique index value. Access of data becomes very fast if we know the index of the desired data. So we can perform Hashing on ISBN Number since its unique and based on the Hash Function w ecan store the Information record.

There is no requirement for printing the file in order - HashTables dont store the data in order of insertions, so no problems with that

It becomes a data structure in which insertion and search operations are very fast irrespective of the size of the data. So Querying books details can be fast and searching will take less time.

It can also be pointed out that it wont be too expensive for Hardware implemtation as HashTables stores data based on Hash Functions and memory consumption is also optimal which reduces memory wastages.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Python file with appropriate comments given below

Explanation:

#Take the input file name

filename=input('Enter the input file name: ')

#Open the input file

inputFile = open(filename,"r+")

#Define the dictionary.

list={}

#Read and split the file using for loop

for word in inputFile.read().split():

  #Check the word to be or not in file.

  if word not in list:

     list[word] = 1

  #increment by 1

  else:

     list[word] += 1

#Close the file.

inputFile.close();

#print a line

print();

#The word are sorted as per their ASCII value.

fori in sorted(list):

  #print the unique words and their

  #frequencies in alphabetical order.

  print("{0} {1} ".format(i, list[i]));

The following cose will be used to copy assignment operator for CarCounter

<u>Explanation:</u>

Complete Program:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class CarCounter

{

public:

CarCounter();

CarCounter& operator=(const CarCounter& objToCopy);

void SetCarCount(const int setVal)

{

 carCount = setVal;

}

int GetCarCount() const

{

 return carCount;

}

private:

int carCount;

};

CarCounter::CarCounter()

{

carCount = 0;

return;

}

// FIXME write copy assignment operator

/* Your solution goes here */

CarCounter& CarCounter::operator=(const CarCounter& objToCopy)

{

if(this != &objToCopy)

 carCount = objToCopy.carCount;

return *this;

}

int main()

{

CarCounter frontParkingLot;

CarCounter backParkingLot;
