After the trebuchet programming assignment, you’ve decided to give me a -you gift of a glitter bomb. naturally, in addition to packing the largest amount of glitter possible in your device, you have also created a computer terminal that allows me to choose which wire to cut from four possible wires: red, green, yellow, and blue. once the program begins, i have x seconds to make a choice or the glitter shower begins regardless of what wire is cut. the glitter bomb explodes immediately if the blue or red wire is cut. it is disarmed if the yellow wire is cut. if the green wire is cut, the timer is reset, and the user is given the choice of the red, yellow, and blue wires again with the same outcomes as before (yellow = disarmed; blue or red = glitter). problem create the computer interface for your glitter bomb. it should follow the outline below. 1) prompt the user to input a character that corresponds to the first letter of the wire to cut. show them their options somehow in a nicely formatted menu or other easily understood interface. 2) checks the input for a valid entry. if not a valid entry, ask again until the input is correct. if they fail after 4 tries additional tries (total of 5 attempts), display ‘glitter’ to the command window and end the program

Jasper and samantha are in a robotics competition. the guidelines state that the robots should be able to move a 10-gram weight at least 2 meters and turn in a circle. jasper and samantha have already built the robot. which step of the design process should they follow next to decide whether their robot meets the minimum criteria for the competition?

Write a modular program (no classes yet, just from what you learned last year), that allows two players to play a game of tic-tac-toe. use a two-dimensional char array with 3 rows and 3 columns as the game board. each element of the array should be initialized with an asterisk (*). the program should display the initial board configuration and then start a loop that does the following: allow player 1 to select a location on the board for an x by entering a row and column number. then redisplay the board with an x replacing the * in the chosen location. if there is no winner yet and the board is not yet full, allow player 2 to select a location on the board for an o by entering a row and column number. then redisplay the board with an o replacing the * in the chosen location. the loop should continue until a player has won or a tie has occurred, then display a message indicating who won, or reporting that a tie occurred. player 1 wins when there are three xs in a row, a column, or a diagonal on the game board. player 2 wins when there are three ox in a row, a column, or a diagonal on the game board. a tie occurs when all of the locations on the board are full, but there is no winner. input validation: only allow legal moves to be entered. the row must be 1, 2, or 3. the column must be 1, 2 3. the (row, column) position entered must currently be empty (i. e., still have an asterisk in it).

Singing in the rain: this first part of the film shows the early history of motion picture. how accurate do you think the portrayal of the early motion picture industry is? why? is historical accuracy important in films and theater productions? explain.
