Innovation is the driving force in development; without innovative entrepreneurs we would not have most of the tools and services that provide many of us with prosperity today. From birth control to the internet, innovation has fundamentally changed the world. Despite this, most of the work on understanding the process of innovation and its relationship to public policy has been conducted in economies at more advanced stages of development. In fact, the importance of innovation is often downplayed for developing countries.
Discuss the conditions under which entrepreneurs in developing countries innovate.

The better-selling candies are often high in calories. Assume that the following data show the calorie content from samples of M&M's, Kit Kat, and Milky Way candies.

M&M's Kit Kat Milky Way
250 245 200
210 205 208
240 225 202
230 235 190
250 220 180

Test for significant differences among the calorie content of these three candies.

A) State the null and alternative hypotheses.

H0: MedianMM = MedianKK = MedianMW
Ha: MedianMM ≠ MedianKK ≠ MedianMW

H0: All populations of calories are identical.
Ha: Not all populations of calories are identical.    

H0: Not all populations of calories are identical.
Ha: All populations of calories are identical.

H0: MedianMM = MedianKK = MedianMW
Ha: MedianMM > MedianKK > MedianMW

H0: MedianMM ≠ MedianKK ≠ MedianMW
Ha: MedianMM = MedianKK = MedianMW

B) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

C) Find the p-value. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

D) At a 0.05 level of significance, what is your conclusion?

Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the calorie content of these three candies.

Do not reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the calorie content of these three candies.    

Reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the calorie content of these three candies.

Do not reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the calorie content of these three candies.

create a Java application program that will add up the cost of three items, then print the final total with sales tax.

You should begin by prompting the user to enter three separate prices for three items that are being purchased. For each item you should ask for (in this order) the quantity of the product and the price of the product.

The program should compute, and be able to print to the screen:

the subtotal (the total amount due before tax)

sales tax (the amount of sales tax that will be added, assume 7% tax rate)

total due (subtotal + sales tax)

The following is an example of what your MIGHT see on the screen when your program runs. The exact output depends on what values that the user types in while the program runs. The user's values are shown below in italics:

Enter the quantity of the first product: 3
Enter the price of the first product: $5.25
Enter the quantity of the second product: 2
Enter the price of the second product: $1.83
Enter the quantity of the third product: 7
Enter the price of the third product: $0.89

Subtotal: $25.64
Sales Tax: $1.79
Total Due: $27.43

The user inputs the students first name and last names separately but within one loop. The loop should end when the user presses enter on the first name without entering any text. Upon completing entry of data, the output pictured above should display on the output.

Using the code given, follow the steps:

1. You should be able to enter up to 20 student first names. Also, change the input array to an appropriate size of 18 for the length of the first name. Use a meaningful name for the storage of first names array. Change prompts as needed. The loop should exit when the user presses enter when inputing the first name without adding any text. Compile and make sure it works from main(). At this point, you should be able to enter and alphabetize a list of up to 20 first names! Alphabetizing the first name is just a test!!! In the end, you will alphabetize the whole name string.

2. Add another array and get input for last name INSIDE the loop for your first names. This last name array will also be an array of 20 elements but with room for up to 25 characters. Again, do not use another loop! Just add code to input the last name to the first loop. The program should now ask the user to input the student's first name and then last name in that order for each individual. Then the program will loop to continue adding student names until the user presses enter on the student's first name. Make sure the last name is converted to all caps. You do not need to alphabetize this array, but you may want to print it out to make sure everything is working just as a test.

3. Make changes to convert the first name to all upper case using a function. (Example: User enters bob on the first name, then on the last name enters jenkins, it will look like Bob Jenkins instead of bob jenkins)

Last step: Combine last and first into an third array. This code is most easily added to the first loop. You just had the user enter first and last names. So the current value of the subscript used for these arrays can be used to combine content and store in the third array.  Alphabetize THIS array (instead of the first name array) which means you need to send a different pointer to the stsrt() function. Print out the end result. Test that everything is working on this program.

Given Code:

void rollsheet(void) {
int ct = 0;
char *ptstr[LIMIT];
char input[LIMIT][SIZE];
int k;

printf("Enter up to %d student names, and I will sort them!\n", LIMIT);
printf("To stop, press the Enter key at a line's start.\n");
while (ct < LIMIT && s_gets(input[ct], SIZE) != NULL
&& input[ct][0] != '\0')
{
ptstr[ct] = input[ct]; /* set ptrs to strings */
ct++;
}
stsrt(ptstr,ct);
puts("\nHere's the sorted list:\n");
for (k = 0; k < ct; k++)
puts(ptstr[k]) ; /* sorted pointers */
}

void stsrt(char *strings[], int num)
{
char *temp;
int top, seek;

for (top = 0; top < num-1; top++)
for (seek = top + 1; seek < num; seek++)
if (strcmp(strings[top],strings[seek]) > 0)
{
temp = strings[top];
strings[top] = strings[seek];
strings[seek] = temp;
}
}


char * s_gets(char * st, int n)
{
char * ret_val;
int i = 0;

ret_val = fgets(st, n, stdin);
if (ret_val)
{
while (st[i] != '\n' && st[i] != '\0')
i++;
if (st[i] == '\n')
st[i] = '\0';
else // must have words[i] == '\0'
while (getchar() != '\n')
continue;
}
return ret_val;

Java Programming:

In the program shown below, I want to print the result in the output file. The main static method calls a method, displaySum which adds two integers and prints the result (sum). The problem is that I am not able to use "outputFile.print()" inside displaySum to print the content as the output file. I also want to display the content of two other methods, but I am facing this difficulty.

** DisplayOutput.java **

import java.io.*;
public class DisplayOutput
{
   public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
   {
       FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("output.txt");
       PrintWriter outputFile = new PrintWriter(fw);
      
       outputFile.println("Suppose two inetegers are 2 and 3.");
       outputFile.println("Display the sum of two inetegers (2 and 3).");
       displaySum(2,3);
       outputFile.close();
   }

   {
