Chapter 7, Problem 11PE
Program Plan Intro
Lo Shu Magic Square
Program plan:
- • Declare a function named “loShuMagicSq()”.
- ○ Use a nested “for” loop to check the row, column, and diagonal sum.
- ○ Inside the “for” loop, create a nested “if” statement.
- ○ Then, using the first “if” statement, check whether the row sum is equal to the diagonal sum.
- ○ If the condition is true, then using the second “if” statement, check whether the row sum is equivalent to column sum.
- ○ If both the conditions are true, then print the message “The square is a Lo Shu Magic Square” and return.
- ○ If any one of the conditions fails, then print the message “The square is not a Lo Shu Magic Square” and return.
- • In the “main()” function, perform the following steps:
- ○ Create a two-dimensional list called “inpSq”.
- ○ Then, call the function “loShuMagicSq()” with “inpSq” as input to check whether the “inpSq” forms a “Lo Shu Magic Square”.
- • Finally, call the function “main()” to execute the program.

The following algorithm indicates how the game is played. The game continues until the game is either won
by landing on the red space or lost when the piece moves off either end of the board.
Step 1: Place a game piece on a space that is not red and set a counter to 0.
Step 2: If the game piece is on a yellow space, move the game piece 3 positions to the left and go to step 3.
Otherwise, if the game piece is on a black space, move the game piece 1 position to the left and go to step 3.
Otherwise, if the game piece is on a green space, move the game piece 2 positions to the right and go to step
3.
Step 3: Increase the value of the counter by 1.
Step 4: If game piece is on the red space or moved off the end of the…

Write a program that simulates a magic square using 3 one-dimensional parallel arrays of
integer type.
Each one of the arrays corresponds to a row of the magic square.
The program ask the user to enter the values of the magic square row by row and informs
the user if the grid a magic square or not.

- # Create Custom Transformer Create a custom transformer, just as we did in the lecture video entitled "Custom Transformers", that performs two computations: 1. Adds an attribute to the end of the numerical data (i.e. new last column) that is equal to $\frac{x_1^3}{x_5}$ for each observation. In other words, for each instance, you will cube the $x_1$ column and then divide by the $x_5$ column. 2. Drops the entire $x_4$ feature column if the passed function argument `drop_x4` is `True` and doesn't drop the column if `drop_x4` is `False`. (See further instructions below.) You must name your custom transformer class `Assignment4Transformer`. Your class should include an input parameter called `drop_x4` with a default value of `True` that deletes the $x_4$ feature column when its value is `True`, but preserves the $x_4$ feature column when you pass a value of `False`. This transformer will be used in a pipeline. In that pipeline, an imputer will be run *before* this transformer.

Given a list of rectangular towers as tuples (s, e, h) where s and e are the start and end x-coordinates (satisfying e>s) and h is the height of that tower, compute and return the total visible area of the towers, being careful not to double count two or more towers that are partially overlapping. All towers share the same flat ground baseline at the height. The classic solution illustrates the important sweep line technique that starts by creating a list of precisely those x-coordinate values where something relevant to the problem takes place. In this problem, the relevant x-coordinates are those where some tower either…arrow_forwarda class with 10 students that will take 3 exams use 3 arrays to hold the scores for each student and anoither array to hold the average of the 3 exams for each student.
