Answer:

c, d and e.

Explanation:

An algorithm is a step by step procedure

in solving a particular problem. An algorithm is finite - it has a beginning and an end.

With the options provided;

* option a is not an algorithm, though it describes the tool to solving a problem, it does not specify the steps involved in solving the problem.

* option b is also not an algorithm because it only shows a list of favorite animals and that is solving no problem.

* option c is also an algorithm. An algorithm solves a problem by providing steps to solving it. A problem statement describes the problem, and the steps on how to solve the problem.

* option d is an algorithm. Setting up the new DVD player is the problem. Steps for setting it up are shown in the instructions. Therefore, since a problem will be solved by following those instructions, that option is an algorithm.

* option e is also an algorithm. Moving a lighting bot around to turn on the lights is the problem. How this is solved are shown in the series of steps. This makes option e and algorithm.

Answer:

A. The mathematical formula for finding the area of a circle.

D. Instructions for setting up a new DVD player

E. A series of steps that moves a "lighting bot" around to turns on lights.

Explanation:

Algorithm is a systematic procedure (or process) that produces the answer to a question or the solution of a problem in a finite number of steps.

Option A is an algorithm. The mathematical formula for finding the area of a circle gives a solution to a problem. The problem is finding area of a circle and the formula gives the step by step procedure finding the area of a circle.

Option B is not an algorithm. Option B just provide a list of your favourite animals and it doesn't answer a question we know about.

Option C is not an algorithm. A problem statement is still a problem with no solution whereas algorithm provides solution

Option D is an algorithm. It provides the step by step procedures for setting up a new DVD player

Option E is an algorithm. It provides a series of steps that moves a lighting bot around to turns on lights, so it provides a solution.

A Color class has a method getColorName that returns a string corresponding to the common name for the color, e.g., yellow, blue

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

String name = super.getColorName();

if (name == null) name = "color";

if (alpha < 100)

return "opaque " + name;

else if (alpha < 200)

return "semi-transparent " + name;

return "transparent " + name;

python A year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, the earth takes longer to rotate around the sun

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

// program in Python.

#read year

i_year=int(input("Please Enter a year:"))

#check leap year

if((i_year % 4 == 0 and i_year % 100 != 0) or (i_year % 400 == 0)):

print("{} is a leap year.".format(i_year))

else:

print("{} is not a leap year.".format(i_year))

Explanation:

Read year from user and assign it to variable "year".If year is completely divisible by 4 and not divisible by 100 or year is completely divisible by 400 then year is leap year otherwise year is not a leap year.

Output:

Please Enter a year:2003

2003 is not a leap year.

carCount = 0;

return;

}

CarCounter::CarCounter(const CarCounter &p){

carCount = p.carCount;

}

void CountPrinter(CarCounter carCntr) {

cout << "Cars counted: " << carCntr.GetCarCount();

return;

}

int main() {

CarCounter parkingLot;

parkingLot.SetCarCount(5);

CountPrinter(parkingLot);

This program finds the sum and average of three numbers. What are the proper codes for Lines a and b?

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

The Proper codes in Line a and Line b is given below

average=Sum/3

print (" Average is = ", average)

Explanation:

In the given question it calculated the sum but the program does not calculate the average of the 3 numbers.The average of the 3 number is calculated by using average=Sum/3 statement so we add this code in Line a then After that print the value of average by using the print function so we add this code in Line b.
