Write a program to accept two integers a and b as the input. Output the lcm (least common multiple) of them. This program will not be auto graded (You tutor will grade it manually). To help you to verify the correctness of your program, here are some test cases you can use: lcm(16, 24) = 48, lcm(8, 12) = 24, lcm(6, 9) = 18, lcm(20, 28) = 140, lcm(18, 81) = 162

Q-1: What value is printed in the final line of code below?

glass_of_water = 3
glass_of_water = glass_of_water + 1
print(glass_of_water)

4

Correct. You first assign value 3 to the variable, and then you reasign it the old value + 1.

3

Not quite. The value of glass_of_water changes.

1

Not quite. The value of glass_of_water is initially 3, then you take its value (3) and add 1 to it and assign it back to glass_of_water.

glass_of_water

Hmm no. glass_of_water is a variable, and when we print variables we actually print their values. Compare to: print("glass_of_water")

Q-1: What value is printed in the final line of code below?

people = 1
people = people + 1
people = people + 1
people = people + 1
people = people + 1
print(people)

1

Not quite. Review 2.12 Reassignment section.

7

Not quite. Review 2.12 Reassignment section.

5

Correct. People variable is initially one, and its valued is increased by one 4 times.

people

Hmm no. people is a variable, and when we print variables we actually print their values. Compare to: print("people")

Write a calculator or tool for another class. For example (you therefore can’t use this) for a history class you might make a calculator that is given a historical date and returns how many years since that event transpired. You may add a list of historical events that the user can select, that returns the years since those events. Your calculator should get user input, and the output should vary based on the users input. Demonstrate the use of conditionals. Points for creativity as well. Your calculator should have error messages if the input is invalid (i.e. if ‘’January’’ is given instead of a year.)

(2 points) Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage are trapped in a dimensional warp and need your help to escape before they are eaten by a grue. They need you to write a program that will calculate the dimensional escape code they need to exit the warp.

Write a program that prompts the user to input their three dimensional coordinates (integers), storing them in the variables z, q, and d.

To compute the dimensional escape code, multiply z by 352, divide q by 17, raise d to the 7th power. Add the result of all three of these operations together and store the result in a variable called escapeCode. Note that the result of this operation could be a floating-point number.

Do not alter what is stored in z, q, or d during these operations, as this could break the space-time continuum. (It will also break my tests if you change them.)

Once you have completed this program and it passes our checks, our system will transmit and translate the instructions to the doomed pair. (In other words, I have included a runtime test so that you can check your work.) Click the Show Code button to begin.

It is possible to name the days 0 thru 6 where day 0 is Sunday and day 6 is Saturday. If you go on a wonderful holiday leaving on day number 3 (a Wednesday) and you return home after 10 nights you would return home on a Saturday (day 6).

Write a general version of the program which (1) prompts the user for a starting day number and the length of their stay, then (2) stores the values as type int variables start_day and stay_length respectively, and finally (3) prints the number of the day of the week they will return in an appropriate message.

The formula for computing the final amount if one is earning compound interest is given on Wikipedia as

Write a Python program that assigns the principal amount of 10000 to variable \(P\), assign to \(n\) the value 12, and assign to \(r\) the interest rate of 8% (0.08). Then have the program prompt the user for the number of years, \(t\), that the money will be compounded for. Print a message to the user giving the final amount of money after \(t\) years.

Many people keep time using a 24 hour clock (11 is 11am and 23 is 11pm, 0 is midnight). If it is currently 13 and you set your alarm to go off in 50 hours, it will be 15 (3pm). Write a Python program to solve the general version of the above problem. Your program should first prompt the user for the time now (in hours) and for the number of hours to wait for the alarm, then store those values as type int variables time_now and wait_time respectively, and finally print the time on the 24 hour clock when the alarm will go off.
