Required: Prepare Pool's consolidated balance sheet on December 31, 2014.

Write a Python function that receives a stack object s, where the items in the stack are only numbers in the set {0,1} and returns the number of 1's in the stack s. The function must satisfy the following restrictions:

• the state of the stack must be preserved; ie., after calling this function the state of the stack s must be the same it was before the function was called.
• The function cannot use any additional variables of any of the collection types such as lists, stacks, dictionaries, strings etc.
• The function cannot use any global variables.
• Since the implementation of Stack is not known you must use the API given in the Table 1.

For example, if the stack contains 0,0,1,1,0,1,0, the function must return 3 and the stack must still contain 0,0,1,1,0,1,0.

Using relevant theories and models critically evaluate and analyse the leadership of a leader working in an (business, government or not-for-profit) organisation. If you were in the position of the leader, what could you do to be a better leader and make a stronger impact on the followers and on the situation?

For this assignment you can select a leader from a large or a small organisation. You can select a leader from your own organisation or one that you are familiar with. It could be a CEO of an international organisation whom you have read about in the newspapers/biographies, or a family member who runs a small business with a few staff members. The choice of leader and organisation is yours.

Write a report in which you cover the following:

A clear description of the leader, the organisation/industry, and situation/context.

An evaluation of the leader by referring to concepts and theories covered in the subject (e.g. style, behaviour, traits, attitudes, power) and by referring to relevant examples.

A discussion of how you would lead differently if you were put in the same situation/s as the leader and how you could make a stronger impact on the followers and on the situation/s.

It is important to demonstrate your knowledge about Leadership and to clearly reference your sources. (you can use the Leadership- Theory and Practice 7^th edition by Peter G. Northouse as reference).

Nooner Appliance Producers (NAP), a small appliance manufacturing company that specializes in clocks, must decide what types and quantities of output to manufacture for each week’s sale. Currently Nooner makes only two kinds of clocks, regular clocks and alarm clocks, from which the product mix is selected. Next week’s product mix can only be produced with the labor, facilities, and parts currently on hand. These supplies are as follows:

Number of labor hours    1,600

Number of processing hours    1,800

Number of alarm assemblies    350

The resources are related to the two alternative manufactured outputs, regular clocks and alarm clocks, in the following way: each regular clock produced requires 2 hours of labor and 6 hours of processing, while each alarm clock produced requires 4 hours of labor and 2 hours of processing. The profit per unit for regular clocks is $3.00 while the company makes $8 per unit for alarm clocks. Additionally, at least 300 clocks in total must be produced. How many of each type of clock should Nooner produce to maximize profit? The LP structure and solution are shown below where X1 represents regular clocks and X2 represents alarm clocks.

Topic-Describe a specific decision situation involving your targeted behavior using all steps in the consumer decision-making process.

Paragraph 1 will explore the week’s topic(s) and link it to how it influences your behavior.
Paragraph 2 will describe changes in your behavior this week, and how the behavior is changing

Paragraph 3 how you do this week? any changes and what results did you see?

(Behavior that I want to change is: I will exercise at least 4 times every week.)

That pandas returns a missing value where one of the operands is missing

That pandas treats NaN values as zero, when an operation is performed

That pandas removes all records in which one of the operands is NaN

That the + and / operations in pandas are special cases in which the NaN values are treated as floats. The rest of the mathematical operations treat NaN values as strings.

assume quotes are based on units of foreign currency per dollar and the us dollar appreciated against the euro today. this means that :
a. the exchange rate between the dollar and the euro weakened
b. the us interest rate is less than the interest rate in euroland
c. the us inflation rate exceeds the inflation rate in euroland
d. it now takes more dollars to buy one euro
e. it now takes more euros to buy one dollar

How do horsepower and weight affect the mileage of family cars? Data from a sample of 12 2012 family cars are given below (Data extracted from “Top 2012 Cars,” Consumer Reports, April 2012, pp. 40–73.) Develop a regression model to predict mileage (as measured by miles per gallon) based on the horsepower of the car’s engine and the weight of the car (in pounds).
