Each week, the Pickering Trucking Company randomly selects one of its 30 employees to take a drug test. Write an application that determines which employee will be selected each week for the next 52 weeks. Use the Math. random() function explained in Appendix D to generate an employee number between 1 and 30; you use a statement similar to: testedEmployee = 1 + (int) (Math. random() * 30); After each selection, display the number of the employee to test. Display four employee numbers on each line. It is important to note that if testing is random, some employees will be tested multiple times, and others might never be tested. Run the application several times until you are confident that the selection is random.

Suppose we have a byte addressable computer that has a 32-byte cache with 8 bytes per block. the memory address is 8 bits long. the system accesses memory addresses (in hex) in this exact order: 6e, b9, 17, e0, 4e, 4f, 50, 91, a8, ab, ad, 93, and 94. (a) assuming the cache is direct mapped, what memory addresses will be in cache block 2 after the last address has been accessed? (b) assuming the cache is direct mapped, what is the hit ratio for the entire memory reference sequence given, assuming the cache is initially empty? (c) assuming the cache is 2-way set associative with a lru replacement policy, what is the hit ratio?

How is the number 372 written when expanded out to place values in the base 8 (octal) number system? a. 2 x 4 + 3 x 2 + 4 x 1 b. 3 x 64 + 7 x 8 + 2 x 1 c. 3 x 8 + 7 x 7 + 2 x 6 d. 3 x 100 + 7 x 10 + 2 x 1

Design a class tictactoe that: holds the following information about the game: two-dimensional array (3 by 3), and winner. add additional variables as needed. includes the functions to perform the various operations on objects. for example, function to print the board, getting the move, checking if move is valid, determining if there is a winner after each move. add additional operations as needed. includes constructor(s). write the functions of the class, and write a program that uses the class. the program should declare an object of type tictactoe. the program will create the board and store it in the array. the program will allow two players to play the tic-tac-toe game. after every valid move update the array, check if there is a winner. if there is no winner and no tie, then print the board again to continue.
