The Buffon Needle Experiment. The following experiment was devised by Comte Georges-Louis Leclerc de Buffon (1707-1788), a French naturalist. A needle length 1 inch is dropped onto paper that is ruled with lines 2 inches apart. If the needle drops onto a line, we count it as a bit. (See Figure 10.) Buffon discovered that the quotient tries/approximates pi. For the Buffon needle experiment, you must generate two random numbers: one to describe the starting position and one to describe the angle of the needle with the x-axis. Then you need to test whether the needle touches a grid line. Generate the lower point of the needle. Its x-coordinate is irrelevant, and you may assume its y-coordinate y_low to be any random number between 0 and 2. The angle alpha between the needle and the x -axis can be any value between 0 degrees and 180 degrees (pi radians). The upper end of the needle has y-coordinate y_high = y_low + sin alpha The needle is a hit if y_high is at least 2, as shown in Figure 11.Stop after 10,000 tries and print the quotient tries/. (This program is not suitable for computing the value of pi. You need pi in the computation of the angle.

In this lab, you complete a prewritten c++ program for a carpenter who creates personalized house signs. the program is supposed to compute the price of any sign a customer orders, based on the following facts: the charge for all signs is a minimum of $35.00. the first five letters or numbers are included in the minimum charge; there is a $4 charge for each additional character. if the sign is made of oak, add $20.00. no charge is added for pine. black or white characters are included in the minimum charge; there is an additional $15 charge for gold-leaf lettering. instructions ensure the file named housesign.cppis open in the code editor. you need to declare variables for the following, and initialize them where specified: a variable for the cost of the sign initialized to 0.00 (charge). a variable for the number of characters initialized to 8 (numchars). a variable for the color of the characters initialized to "gold" (color). a variable for the wood type initialized to "oak" (woodtype). write the rest of the program using assignment statements and ifstatements as appropriate. the output statements are written for you. execute the program by clicking the run button. your output should be: the charge for this sign is $82. this is the code, // housesign.cpp - this program calculates prices for custom made signs. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { // this is the work done in the housekeeping() function // declare and initialize variables here // charge for this sign // color of characters in sign // number of characters in sign // type of wood // this is the work done in the detailloop() function // write assignment and if statements here // this is the work done in the endofjob() function // output charge for this sign cout < < "the charge for this sign is $" < < charge < < endl; return(0); }

Working on this program in python 3.7: a year in the modern gregorian calendar consists of 365 days. in reality, the earth takes longer to rotate around the sun. to account for the difference in time, every 4 years, a leap year takes place. a leap year is when a year has 366 days: an extra day, february 29th. the requirements for a given year to be a leap year are: 1) the year must be divisible by 42) if the year is a century year (1700, 1800, the year must be evenly divisible by 400some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016.write a program that takes in a year and determines whether that year is a leap year.ex: if the input is 1712, the output is: 1712 is a leap year. ex: if the input is 1913, the output is: 1913 is not a leap year. your program must define and call the function isleapyear(useryear). the function should return true if the input year is a leap year and false otherwise.
