Write a program that reads a string from the user, and creates another string with the letters from in reversed order. You should do this using string concatenation and loops. Do not use any method from Java that does the work for you. The reverse string must be built. Do not just print the letters in reversed order. Instead, concatenate them in a string.

--- Sample run:
This program will create a string with letters in reversed order.
Enter a string: banana
The reversed string is: ananab
Bye

--- Sample run:
This program will create a string with letters in reversed order.
Enter a string: what the heck
The reversed string is: kceh eht tahw
Bye

Variable Growth Valuation Model Given:

Most recent annual cash flow (CFo) $1,000

Stage 1 annual growth rate (gt) 0.15

Stage 2 annual growth rate (gm) 0.05

Duration of stage 1 growth (years) 3

Required return (k) 0.10

Steps in solution:

1) Estimate future cash flows for the duration of the stage 1 growth period:

CF(0) = given $1,000

CF(1) = CF(0) * (1+gt) $1,150

CF(2) = CF(1) * (1+gt) $1,323

CF(3) = CF(2) * (1+gt) $1,521

2) Use EXCEL's built-in NPV function to find the present value of these cash flows.

RATE 0.10

NPV (rate, CF1:CF3) $3,281.09

3) Use the constant growth formula to estimate the value of the firm at the end of the rapid growth period (V3) where:

CF4 = CF3 (1+gm)

CF4 = $1,597

V3 = $1,597 / (0.10-0.05)

Ve = $31,938

4) Use EXCEL's built-in PV function to find the present value of the amount determined in step 3.

FV $31,938

RATE 0.10

NPER 3

PV ($23,996)

(You may ignore the negative sign for this answer. Recall that EXCEL mandates that the amounts entered for PV and FV must have opposite signs.)

5) Add the amounts found in step 2 (the PV of the rapid growth cash flows ) and step 4 (the PV of the normal growth cash flows).

PV of rapid growth cash flows $3,281

PV of normal growth cash flows $23,996

value of the firm $27,277

// function to determine if a token
vector is_token(const string& s) {
}

int main() {
// make this into a loop such that, like a terminal, input is accepted until the user hits CTRL+d
string str;
cout<<">";
getline(cin, str);

//vector to store the strings or characters returned by is_token() function
vector tokens;

tokens = is_token(str);
}

Modify the main() function to loop until the user exits (e.g. by pressing CTRL+d).

Write a function named is_token() that accepts a string of user input and determines what is a token (see below for token determination rules).
The function must return the separated tokens.

Determining if something is a token:

1. Whitespace (space, tab, etc) ends a token and is skipped unless it is in quotes (see below). You will find the function int isspace(char) useful for detecting whitespace characters.
2. Some characters are considered special tokens: | ; < > &. When one of these characters is encountered, the token being built is completed and a new token consisting of the character is created.
3. The character \ is a special character, i.e. an escape character. The next character will be part (or the start) of a token.
4. Items between single or double quotes are treated as parts of the current token.
5. Characters that do not meet the above rules are added on to the current token being built.

Some examples to test your output:

Input: > we\'ll do some "crazy \"air quotes\""
Output (tokens separated by commas): we'll, do, some, crazy "air quotes"

Input: > ls | sort >sorted_files.txt
Output (tokens separated by commas): ls, |, sort, >, sorted_files.txt

Input: > "now\;is"
Output: now;is

1. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the Revenue Management?

b. Revenue management is originated in the airline industry.
c. Through revenue management, the firms can allocate their capacity to different fare classes over time in order to maximize revenue.
d. Revenue management focuses on shaping demand via controlling supply under the limited capacity.

2. According to the Littlewood’s Rule, which of the following does NOT generate pressure to increase the booking limit?
a. Increase in the full-fare price
b. Increase in the discount-fare price
c. Increase in the plane capacity
d. Decrease in the average full-fare demand

Computer Dynamics (p. 175 of your textbook) is a microcomputer software development company that has a 300-computer network. The company is located in three adjacent five-story buildings in an office park, with about 100 computers in each building. The LANs in each building are similar, but one building has the data center on the second floor. There are no other office locations. The current network is poorly designed for its current needs and must be completely replaced.

1. Develop a logical design for this enterprise campus that considers the seven network architecture components. There are no other campuses, so you can omit WAN access.

2. Document the assumptions you made in approaching this design.

3. Explain why you have designed the network in this way. Make sure your answers are numbered based on the question presented. Submit as a Microsoft Word document to the correct dropbox by the due date and time posted on the D2L course calendar.

1. Why is it that lethal recessive alleles remain in the human gene pool, rather than just disappearing because of their unfavorable phenotype for homozygous recessives?

2. Scenario: A sudden flood of a large area around the Mississippi River occurs. In some local populations of a species of insects, there is greater buoyancy and survival of some individuals due to having the double recessive genotype of a gene that allowed them to accumulate more lipids to float. A year after the flood, the same and displaced local populations of the insects were reduced in size and all biased in allele frequencies toward greater frequency of the recessive allele compared to the original population’s allelic frequencies. Which of the forces that affect populations seems to have had the strongest effect?

3. Do you think the National Park Service made the correct decision not to permit a genetic rescue of the Isle Royale wolves in 2015, or should new individuals be introduced? Provide reasoning for your answer (as a biologist).
