Question
Chapter 6.2, Problem 1E
Program Plan Intro
- Include the header file and use the namespace std for standard I/O.
- Declare the function findMax(double, double).
- Define the main function.
- Declare the variables to store the two double-precision value.
- Prompt the user to enter the values and storing them.
- Call the findMax() and storing the value returned by it.
- Display the maximum number among the two numbers.
Program description:
The main purpose of the program is to modify the program written in exercise 6.5 so that the function findMax() returns the double-precision value to the main function. After the modification the findMax() function takes two double-precision values as the function argument and returns the largest among them.

(Display characters) Write a function that prints characters using the following header:
def printChars(ch1, ch2, numberPerLine):
This function prints the characters between ch1 and ch2 with the specified numbers per line. Write a test program that prints ten characters per line from 1 to Z.
(Hypotenuse) Define a function hypotenuse that calculates the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle when the other two sides are given. Use this function in a program to determine the length of the hypotenuse for each of the triangles shown below. The function should take two double arguments and return the hypotenuse as a double. Sample output Enter 2 sides of right triangle: 3.0 4.0 Hypotenuse: 5.0 Enter 2 sides of right triangle: 5.0 12.0 Hypotenuse: 13.0 Enter 2 sides of right triangle: 8.0 15.0 Hypotenuse: 17.0
(Signal Handling) Read the documentation for your compiler to determine what signals are supported by the signal-handling library (). Write a program that contains signal handlers for the standard signals SIGABRT and SIGINT. The program should test the trapping of these signals by calling function abort to generate a signal of type SIGABRT and by having the user type c ( C on OS X) to generate a signal of type SIGINT.

Weird Treasure Chestby CodeChum Admin I'm now in the middle of the jungle when I saw this weird treasure chest. It seems that if I properly place the address of a certain number, I get a very weird result! Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with a treasureChestMagic() function which has the following description:Return type - voidName - treasureChestMagicParameters - an address of an integerDescription - updates the value of a certain integer randomlyYou do not have to worry about how the treasureChestMagic() function works. All you have to do is ask the user for an integer and then call the treasureChestMagic() function, passing the address of that integer you just asked.Finally, print the updated value of the integer inputted by the user.Input 1.

Note that these numbers include both the icu and the non-icu patients. >>> res1, res2, res3 = prov_vac_status(database, 12) >>> print(f"{res1}, {res2}, {res3}") >>> 194, 14, 118 >>> print(prov_vac_status(database, 35)) >>> (402, 28, 202) >>> print(prov_vac_status(database, 81)) >>> (0, 0, 0)arrow_forward(Use Python) Use the Design Recipe to write a function called compute_commission that returns the commission earned by a salesperson for the sale of a car. The function should consume two parameters, first a string representing the model of the car sold and the second an int representing the number of extra features that were sold. The commission follows these rules: The commission earned on a basic model (“basic”) is $1000, on a mid-range model (“mid”) is $1500 and on a luxury model (“luxury”) is $2000. You may assume that these are the only three string values that will be passed to your function. The salesperson earns $100 per extra feature sold. You may assume the value for the extra features is always greater than or equal to zero. Include a docstring! Write 3 assert_equal statements to test your function.arrow_forward

For numbers which are multiples of both 2 and 3, print "bee-bop" instead of the number.

Simplicity is Beautyby CodeChum Admin In life, simplicity is beauty. Let's try creating something so simple. Let's create a function that accepts the address of an integer and prints n number of asterisks out of it. For example, if the value of the address passed is 5, then the output would be five asterisks in one line. Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for an integer and passes the address of this integer to a function call of the simple() function.This simple() function hasn't been implemented yet so your task is just that, to implement it. This has the following description:Return type - voidName - simpleParameter - address of an integerDescription - prints a line of asterisksDO NOT EDIT THE MAIN FUNCTIONInput 1.
