Give a decision tree lower bound for the (worst case) number of weighings that must be performed by any algorithm solving this problem. b. Design an algorithm that solves this problem with (worst case) number of weighings equal to the lower bound you found in (a). Present your algorithm by drawing a decision tree, rather than pseudo-code. c. Alter the problem slightly to allow the possibility that all 12 bars are pure gold. Thus there is one additional possible verdict: "all gold". Make a minor change to your algorithm in part (b) so that it gives a correct answer to this more general problem.

Read the code below. what will the computer print if the input for year_variable is 1700? if year_variable == 1776: print("your answer is correct. the declaration of independence was signed in “year_variable”.") elif year_variable < 1776: compute_variable = 1776 - year_variable. print("add “compute_variable“ years to your answer for the correct answer.") elif year_variable > 1776: compute_variable = year_variable - 1776 print("subtract “compute_variable” years from your answer for the correct answer.")

Write a program that reads a set of floating-point values. ask the user to enter the values, then print • the average of the values. • the smallest of the values. • the largest of the values. • the range, that is the difference between the smallest and largest. of course, you may only prompt for the values once.
