A pentagonal number is one that corresponds to dots arranged into a
pentagon. Above are the first four pentagonal numbers and their
pentagons.
The pentagonal number PN has sides made of N dots. When you count the
dots for a pentagonal number, include the dots for the inner pentagons. So
to figure out how many dots PN has, find out how many P(N-1) has and add
the dots for the new sides of size N.
P1 = 1, P2 = 5, P3 = 12, P4 = 22
Figure out a recursive formula for PN and then write a function that
implements it. That is, implement pentagonal() using recursion.
pentagonal(1) -> 1
pentagonal(2) -> 5
pentagonal(3) -> 12
: In the classic problem FizzBuzz, you are told to print the numbers from 1 to n. However,when the number is divisible by 3, print "Fizz''. When it is divisible by 5, print "Buzz''. When it isdivisible by 3 and 5, print"FizzBuzz''. In this problem, you are asked to do this in a multithreaded way.Implement a multithreaded version of FizzBuzz with four threads. One thread checks for divisibilityof 3 and prints"Fizz''. Another thread is responsible for divisibility of 5 and prints"Buzz''. A third threadis responsible for divisibility of 3 and 5 and prints "FizzBuzz''. A fourth thread does the numbers.
If you add up all the digits in 468, you get 4 + 6 + 8 = 18. The square and cube of 468 are 219024 and 102503232, respectively. Interestingly, if you add up the digits of the square or cube, you get 18 again. Are there other integers that share this property? Write a program that lists all positive integers k less than 1000 such that the three numbers k, k2, and k3 have digits that add up to the same number.

- Write a program that allows the user to enter a number between 1 and 1000. If the number is invalid, provide an error message and allow the user to try again until he enters a valid value.

We'll index from 0, so the 0th and 1st numbers are both 1. The 2nd Fibonacci number is found by summing the 0th and 1st: 1 + 1 = 2. The 3rd is found by summing the 1st and 2nd: 1 + 2 = 3. After this point, each Fibonacci number is found by summing the previous two numbers. You are to write a recursive function to compute the nth Fibonacci number. This means that your function will call itself and will NOT include explicit loops. Hint: Your function should include a line that looks a lot like the mathematical definition of the nth Fibonacci number. Another Hint: It's possible for a recursive function to call itself more than once. Example: print(Fibonacci(1)) 1arrow_forwardYou are given an integer, N.

- /*code Kth Largest Factor A positive integer d is said to be a factor of another positive integer N if when N is divided by d, the remainder obtained is zero. For example, for number 12, there are 6 factors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. Every positive integer k has at least two factors, 1 and the number k itself.Given two positive integers N and k, write a program to print the kth largest factor of N. Input Format: The input is a comma-separated list of positive integer pairs (N, k). Output Format: The kth highest factor of N. If N does not have k factors, the output should be 1.

Write a function sequence()that receives the integer value N and display the ‘3N+1’ sequence starting from the integer value that wasreceived (entered by the user).

- WATERSORT PROGRAM - JAVA •The aim of Part 2 is to set up the puzzle for the player to solve in Part 3. IMPORTANT NOTE: We are not going to start with 2 empty bottles, but rather with 8 empty slots spread over the 5 bottles as explained in the intro video. Start with 5 empty bottles. Use a random number generator to fill bottles one slot at a time with the colours while keeping 8 slots empty – there is a total of 5*4 = 20 slots – so if we will 12 slots, 8 are free. •Advantage: Easy to create a puzzle with a good mix •Disadvantage: With more colours and bottles and only 2 open bottles for more advanced versions of the game, the result might not be solvable. Start with three sorted bottles. In the strategy the idea is to load three bottles with uniform colour and then move ink around for a number of moves until the bottles are mixed up. •Advantage: Result is always solvable since the bottles are created in a reversed-game strategy. •Disadvantage: It is hard to develop an algorithm which…arrow_forwardAs the algorithm performs division of numbers with high precision, it is very common to see really big numbers after the period (for example: 1200.2300001), which is not desirable because of several reasons: may cause confusion to some users when they see such big numbers; uses more memory to store a bigger number; it just does not make sense to display currency number in this format. For this reason, you are going to implement a utility function to format any number into the appropriate currency format, using 2 decimal places. For example: The number 1200.2300001 would be became: 1200.23arrow_forwardQ1: Write a program that reads a set of N integers. Then, the program finds and outputs the sum of the even values and the sum of the odd values of them. For example: if the value entered for N=5, and the five integers are 3, 6, 2, 9, 7. Then the sum of even values (6+2 = 8), and the sum of odd values (3+9+7 = 19) Q2: Write a program that reads some numbers until it reaches a specific value (assume -1 is a stop value in this case). The program should find and outputs the average of all of the numbers (between 10...40) except the stop value (-1). For example: If the numbers look like: 12 5 30 48 -1. Then, the average of the numbers: (12+30)/2 = 21.arrow_forward
