We often need to shuffle data in many applications. Consider a case of a game that plays cards for example or a system that does a draw for lottery. The purpose of this lab is to write functions that will help us shuffle elements of an array.

Create a function that takes an array of integers and its size as parameters and populates the array with the values: 0, 1, 2, ..., size-1, where size is the size of the array.

Create a function that takes an array of integers and two indices (integers) and swaps the two elements. For example if I pass the array and 3 and 7 then the array will swap the element at index 3 with the element at index 7.

Create a function that takes an array of integers and its size as parameters and shuffles the array. You can accomplish this by going through the elements and exchanging each one with a randomly selected element (hint: use the method you created in step 2.

Create a function that takes an array of integers, its size and a value as parameters and returns the index at which the value is stored. If the array doesn't contain the value then the function returns -1. For example if the array is 1 4 6 2 10 11 12 and the value is 11 then the function returns 5 because 11 is stored at index 5. If the value is 20 then the function returns -1 because 20 is not in the array.

Create a function that takes an array of integers and its size as parameters and prints the contents of the array.

In main write code to test your function. Namely, creates an array of 15 integers, populate it, print it, shuffle it, print it again and print the index of an element in the array and the index of an element not in array .

Here is sample output:

Elements before shuffle:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

Elements after shuffle:
9 8 10 6 5 12 14 2 7 3 4 1 13 11 0

What value are you searching for?  7
Element 7 is stored at index 8

What value are you searching for? 30
Element 30 is stored at index -1

A “friend” borrows your favorite compass and paints the entire needle red. You discover this when you are lost in a cave and have with you two flashlights, a few meters of wire, and (of course) your physics textbook. How might you discover which end of your compass needle is the north-seeking end?

***SHOW SPSS**

A researcher is interested to learn if there is a linear relationship between the hours in a week spent exercising and a person’s life satisfaction. The researchers collected the following data from a random sample, which included the number of hours spent exercising in a week and a ranking of life satisfaction from 1 to 10 ( 1 being the lowest and 10 the highest).

  1. Find the mean hours of exercise per week by the participants.
  2. Find the variance and standard deviation of the hours of exercise per week by the participants.
  3. Run a bivariate correlation to determine if there is a linear relationship between the hours of exercise per week and the life satisfaction. Report the results of the test statistic using correct APA formatting.
  4. Run a linear regression on the data. Report the results, using correct APA formatting. Identify the amount of variation in the life satisfaction ranking that is due to the relationship between the hours of exercise per week and the life satisfaction (Hint: the R2 value)
  5. Report a model of the linear relationship between the two variables using the regression line formula.

(C programming) Use a one-dimensional array to solve the following problem. Read in 20 numbers, each of which is between 10 and 100, inclusive. As each number is read, print it only if it’s not a duplicate of a number already read. Provide for the “worst case” in which all 20 numbers are different. Use the smallest possible array to solve this problem.

Your solution must include a function called isUnique() that returns 1 (true) if the number input is unique and 0 (false) otherwise . The implementation of this function must follow AFTER the implementation of main () in your .c file.

Output should be look like:

Seastrand Oil Company produces two grades of gasoline: regular and high octane. Both gasolines are produced by blending two types of crude oil. Although both types of crude oil contain the two important ingredients required to produce both gasolines, the percentage of important ingredients in each type of crude oil differs, as does the cost per gallon. The percentage of ingredients A and B in each type of crude oil and the cost per gallon are shown.

Crude Oil   Cost   Ingredient A   Ingredient B
1   $0.10   20%   60%
2   $0.15   50%   30%
Each gallon of regular gasoline must contain at least 40% of ingredient A, whereas each gallon of high octane can contain at most 50% of ingredient B. Daily demand for regular and high-octane gasoline is 900,000 and 700,000 gallons, respectively. How many gallons of each type of crude oil should be used in the two gasolines to satisfy daily demand at a minimum cost? Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Round the answers for cost to the nearest dollar.

gallons of crude 1 used to produce regular   =  
gallons of crude 1 used to produce high-octane   =  
gallons of crude 2 used to produce regular   =  
gallons of crude 2 used to produce high-octane   =  
Cost   =   $
