this should be written in Java- Problem: Min/Max Search by Index Develop a program that, given a sequence S of integers as input, produces as output two sequences of positive integers, the first of which indicates all those positions in S at which S's minimum value occurs and the second of which indicates all those positions at which S's maximum value occurs. Positions are numbered starting at zero (0).

Facts ● Scanner has a method that returns a boolean indicating whether a next integer exists in its input stream ( hasNextInt() ) ● Scanner objects can be initialized to to scan String data as input.

Input The input will begin with a single line containing T , the number of test cases to follow. The remaining lines contain the T sequences, one line per sequence. Each of these lines contains the values in the sequence. Each such value is separated from the next by at least one space.

Output For each sequence given as input, there should be four lines of output. The first line echos the given sequence. The second line indicates the positions at which the minimum value occurs. The third line indicates the positions at which the maximum value occurs. The fourth line is blank.

A study by Staub, 1970, was concerned with the effects of instructions to young children and their subsequent attempts to help another child (apparently) in distress. Twenty-four first-grade students were randomly assigned to one of three groups. The first group was labeled as indirect responsibility (IR). Students in the IR group were informed that another child was alone in an adjoining room and had been warned not to climb up on a chair. The second group was labeled direct responsibility one (DR1). Students in the DR1 group were told the same story as in the IR condition, but was also told that they were left in charge and to take care of anything that happened. The students were given a simple task, and the researcher left the room. The students then heard a loud crash in the adjoining room followed by a minute of sobbing and crying. Students in the third group, direct responsibility two (DR2), had the same instructions as the DR1 group, but the sounds of distress also included calls for help. Ratings from 1 (no help) to 5 (went to the adjoining room) were given to each student by an observer sitting behind a one-way mirror. The ratings are given below.

The Naples Newspaper completes production of its daily edition by 5 a.m. A truck picks up pallets loaded with newspapers and delivers them to four neighbor sites, where carriers sort and fold the papers for individual routes. The mileage between locations is shown in the table below. Currently, the truck picks up the number of pallets required by each customer at the factory, delivers them, and then returns to the factory to get the papers for the next customer (i.e., current route 0-1-0-2-0-3-0-4-0). The truck always returns to Scottsville and gets 10 miles per gallon using diesel fuel. A truck can carry up to 17 pallets. A gallon of diesel fuel is $2.50. The newspaper operates 365 days per year.

Factory (0) Scottsville (1) Hudson (2) Bonita (3) Walker (4) Pallets Demanded
Factory (0) 7 5 15 17
Scottsville (1) 16 8 11 11
Hudson (2) 9 6 6
Bonita (3) 4 8
Walker (4) 9
