Please, write code in c++. Using iostream and cstring library.

Your friend is the person who does not like any limitations in the life. And when you said to him that it is totally impossible to work with integer numbers bigger than 4 294 967 296 in C++ he blamed you in time-wasting during the university study.So to prove that you hadn't waste 2 months of your life studying C++ in university you have to solve this issue.
Your task is to write a program that which can add two integer numbers that are not more than 101000 to each other.
Your program have to implement void addVeryLongIntegers(char *a,char *b,char *c) function.

Note. The program have to use pointer.

Input:
First line contains a and b numbers that are not bigger that 101000

Oncology Ethics Cases
Individual Case

Case One: Who Decides About "Juanita"?

This patient is 9 years old and has advanced AML (Leukemia). She was originally treated in her hometown in south Texas, but failed to respond to any of four regular and experimental chemotherapy protocols. Her pediatrician, in consultation with a major pediatric center, has advised this family, that there is one other possible treatment to consider--a bone-marrow transplant (BMT). This will involve traveling to the pediatric center, and remaining there for several months. After talking with their pediatrician about the potential risks and benefits, as well as the cost of BMT treatment, the parents decided not to choose it. Their pediatrician indicated that such treatment was the "last, best hope" she could offer Juanita. The family refused, and was reported to Child Protective Services, who sought an order from Family Court, that required them to go to the pediatric center for the BMT. The judge stated that she believed the family had a "moral and legal obligation" to try this treatment. The family complied with the order, even though it was very difficult, and required them to take other small children with them. The screening revealed no "exact match" for BMT, but it was done, using the closest match available (from the mother). This treatment proved ineffective and the oncologists said they could try the BMT again, but with little hope of success. Juanita asked to go home where "she could be with her family and her friends, for as long as she lived". Her parents agreed and asked to go home.

In view of the court order, the physicians and the parents asked for a meeting with the Ethics Committee to review the case. The physicians did not oppose the parents' wishes, but wanted further direction, as to the next appropriates steps to be taken. The Ethics Committee and the hospital legal counsel met with the parents and physicians.

Some of the questions the physician wants to raise include:

  1. What is the physician’s primary ethical obligation to this patient?
  2. How might the physician proceed to deal with the conflict in this case?

In addition,

  1. What questions from the Four Topics Chart relate to Juanita’s case?

NOTE:           Be sure to provide a brief response to all three questions.

This quiz/activity is worth 5 points and your responses submitted are confidential. I would like to see your thoughts without regard to there being a right or wrong point of view. Feel free to relate any cultural and/or philosophical considerations you may have.

An Australia mining company, QMC is thinking about opening a new gold mine in South Africa. The mine is expected to produce 100,000 ounces of gold per year for 5 years. The current price of gold is US$1700 per ounce and the company will hedge its sales at this price for the 5-year period. The mine is expected to cost A$ 100,000,000 to set up and extraction costs are expected to be US$1350 per ounce for the life of the mine. The appropriate discount rate is 0.15. The current exchange rate is US$ 0.73 /A$. Profits are taxed at 30%. In order to decide the viability of this project, QMC needs to know the NPV. Calculate the NPV to the nearest dollar.

Question 1 [40 pts] – Free Rider Problem –Game Theoretic Modeling

Consider two individuals who are deciding to pay for a public good or not. The value of the public good is 10 for each individual and the cost of the public good is 12 TL.

  • If they both vote yes and agree to pay, they will share the cost equally and the public good is provided.
  • If only one vote yes and agrees to pay, full cost will be borne by this individual and the public good will be provided.
  • If they both opt out from paying by voting no, no funds will be collected and the public good will not be provided.

Given the valuation for the public good, cost and the cost sharing mechanism above and our knowledge about public goods this decision process is depicted as a simultaneous form game below.  [Note on notation: the first payoff in each cell corresponds to the payoff of the row player, Individual 1. The second payoff in each cell corresponds to the payoff of the column player, Individual 2.]

Modeling: – Using Game Theory

  1. (5 pts) Public goods are non-rival and non-excludable. Check the payoffs (net benefit; benefit after costs) from each outcome and note that while writing the payoffs of the game these two characteristics of pure public goods is used. Refer to these characteristics first and explain how these characteristics are incorporated into the game.

  1. (4 pts) Explain why this problem about the provision of a public good can be represented using game theory; say as opposed to the problem of an individual deciding to buy a t-shirt for himself or not.

One-Shot Game: Impossibility of reaching the cooperative outcome.

  1. (2 pts) What is Individual 1’s best response to other player choosing to pay for the public good? Briefly explain.
  2. (2 pts) Explain what a dominant action is and then indicate if there is a dominant action here for any player.
  1. (2 pts) Solve for the Nash equilibrium of the game. Explain your work.
  1. (5 pts) Evaluate the Nash equilibrium of the game. Is this equilibrium socially efficient? Explain by referring to the market failure we encounter with the public goods.
  1. (5 pts) Can the two individuals just promise each other to vote yes and then sustain the promised cooperative outcome in this game that is played once? Show that each individual has an incentive to cheat and vote no instead when the other is sticking to its promise.

Initial Post Instructions
For this discussion, take on the role of one of the pathogens we learned about. Give us a narrative about what you are doing in the body from the pathogen's point of view. How did you get into the body? In other words, how did the body inherit you. How do you move through the body? What path of destruction are you on? How will you wage battle against the body? How do you plan to win that battle? What will the body try to do to stop you? How will you fight back? Who wins?
