Write Java code for each of the following problem
a. Two players, a and b, try to guess the cost of an item.
Whoever gets closest to the price without going over is the winner.
Return the value of the best bid. If both players guessed too high,
return -1.
example:
closestGuess(97, 91, 100) → 97
closestGuess(3, 51, 50) → 3
closestGuess(12, 11, 10) → -1
b. Given a non-empty string, return true if at least half of the
characters in the string are the lowercase letter z.
example:
zMajority("az") → true
zMajority("zabzc") → false
zMajority("w") → false
c. Given 4 numbers, return the value of the second largest
number. Note that if two or more numbers are tied for largest, then
the second largest value is also the largest value.
example:
secondLargest(1, 2, 3, 4) → 3
secondLargest(3, 2, 1, 4) → 3
secondLargest(5, 7, 5, 9) → 7
