Document Summary

Some other scientists say that this is not true we are going to base this definition on a specific gravity. It is different than metals trace elements can be any element found in environment of lower concentration (very low sometimes hard to detect) Classification of metals: there are 3 basic groupings of the metals. Mechanism of toxicity: metal is attached to protein that means that protein can carry anything because the essential functional groups that need to attach hormone or something else are already satisfied with the metal. Not just humans, plants, other organisms cope with this. First is resistance, simply do not uptake the metal (humans do not have this function, mechanism) Bioavailability of metals: bioavailability is everything that is available to us. In ph above 7 and neutral they are less bioavailable and less toxic. If the amount of oxygen is low most of the heavy metals are toxic water (potentially more toxic forms for us)

Given the following main program

#main
a = [5,2,9,6,3] doubleList(a) print a

Implement the function named doubleList that takes one list argument and modifies the list so that each element in the list is doubled. The statement print(a) in the main program will then have to print [10,4,18,12,6]
Given the following main program

#main
a = [5,2,9,6,3]
b = reversedList(a) print b
print a

Implement the function named reversedList that takes one list argument and returns a list that contains the elements in the list argument in reverse order. The statement print(b) in the main program will then have to print [3,6,9,2,5]. The statement print(a) must print the original list [5,2,9,6,3] unaffected. This means your function should not modify the list argument.
Given the following main program

#main
a = [5,2,9,6,3] reverseList(a) print a

Implement the function named reverseList that takes one list argument and reverses the list so that the modified list contains the same elements in reverse order. The statement print(a) in the main program will then have to print [3,6,9,2,5]
What is the return value of the functions doubleList, reversedList and reverseList in questions 1, 2, and 3 above?

Given the following main program

#main
a = [5,2,9,6,3]
b = evenElements(a) print b

Implement the function named evenElements that takes one list argument and returns a list that contains the elements in the list argument that are even integers. The statement print(b) in the main program will then have to print [2,6]. What is the return value of the function? Your function should not modify the list argument.
Given the following main program

#main
a = [5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 7, 19, 4, 8, 17, 21, 20, 15] removeOddElements(a)
print a

Implement the function named removeOddElements that takes one list argument and modifies the list so that all odd integers in the list are removed. The statement print(a) in the main program will then have to print [2,6,4,8,20]. What is the return value of the function?
Part A
#Main program A=[5,8,2,0,-5,3] n=-5
answer = isFound(A, n) if answer == True:

print "The integer is found in the list" else:

print "The integer is not found in the list."

Consider the main program shown above. Write a Python function named isFound that takes a list of integers and an integer as arguments and returns True if the integer is found in the list; otherwise it returns False.

Remark: You are NOT allowed to use the in operator or any other built in function when you write this function. Instead, you must write a loop to go through the elements of the list.

Part B

Give the following main program

#main
A = [5,2,9,6,3]
B = [2,4,3,9,7,1,6,5]
flag = isList1InList2(A, B) if flag:

print "The list", A, "is contained in the list", B else:

print "The list", A, "is not contained in the list", B

Implement the function named isList1InList2 that takes two list arguments and returns True if and only if each element of the first list argument are found in the second list argument; otherwise it returns False.

Remark: You are NOT allowed to use the in operator or any other built in function when you write this function. Instead, if you wish, you can use the function you wrote in Part A.

For the lists shown in the main program, your function must return True because each element of list A is found in list B.

A given List is known as Palindrome List if the reverse of the List contains the same elements in the same order of the original List. For example the List of integers [2, 5, 0, 3, 3, 0, 5, 2] is a Palindrome because the reverse of the List which is [2, 5, 0, 3, 3, 0, 5, 2] contains the same elements in the same order as the given List. However the List [1, 2, '2', 1] is not Palindrome because its reverse which is [1, '2', 2, 1] does not contain the same elements in the same order as the given List.

Write a Python function named isPalindrome that takes a List as argument and returns True if the argument is a Palindrome List; otherwise it returns False. You don't need to write the main program; just write the function. If you would like to test your function, then it is ok to write the main program too but you will not get any mark for the main program.
Given your function in question #7 above, what is the output of the following code: a=[]

b = [5,2,9,6,3]

print isList1InList2(a,b)
Given your function in question #7 above, what is the output of the following code:

a=[]
b=[]
print isList1InList2(a,b)
Given your function in question #7 above, what is the output of the following code: a = [5,2,9,6,3]

b=[]

print isList1InList2(a,b)

Given the following main program

#main
a=[]
n = readListElements(a)
print "The user entered", n, "elements to the list" print a

Implement the function named readListElements that takes one list argument and modifies the list by repeatedly asking the user to enter integer values and then appending them to the list. The process stops when the user enters -1000. The stopping value -1000 should not be appended to the list. Moreover your function must count the appended elements and return it. Example if the user enters the integers 31, -4, 9, 1,-1000 then your function must modify the list a to a = [31, -4, 9, 1] and return the number elements added which is 4.
Write a function named createRandomList that takes an integer argument n and returns a list with n elements. The elements must be random numbers in the range [0,100]

Given the following main program:

#main

   n = int(input("How many elements do you want in your list? "))
   a = createList(n)
   s1 = sumOfElementsAtEvenIndexes(a)
   print s1

   s2 = sumOfElementsAtOddIndexes(a)
   print s2
   s3 = sumOfAllElements1(a)
   print s3

   s4 = sumOfEvenElements(a)
   print s4
   s5 = sumOfOddElements(a)
   print s5

   s6 = sumOfAllElements2(a)
   print s6
   if (s3 != s6):

         print "Something is wrong in your program."
   else:

         print "Looks like you have done a good job."

Implement the functions as follows:

createList: returns a list object with n elements. The elements are generated randomly so that each element is in the range [15,45]
sumOfElementsAtEvenIndexes: returns the sum of the elements at even indexes. Use a for loop or a while loop.
sumOfElementsAtOddIndexes: returns the sum of the elements at odd indexes. Use a for loop or a while loop.
sumOfAllElements_A: returns the sum of all the elements in the list using the functionssumOfElementsAtEvenIndexes and sumOfElementsAtOddIndexes. Here you are NOT allowed to use any loop; instead make function calls as described.
sumOfEvenElements: returns the sum of the even integer elements in the list. Use a for loop or a while loop.
sumOfOddElements: returns the sum of the odd integer elements in the list. Use a for loop or a while loop.
sumOfAllElementsB: returns the sum of all the elements in the list using the functions sumOfEvenElements and sumOfOddElements. Here you are NOT allowed to use any loop; instead make function calls as described.

17. Most data compression algorithms like winzip, gzip, lzip and etc are based on the frequency distribution of characters in a given string. Write a function named getFreqDistribution that takes a string argument and returns a LIST that has length 26 such that the first element of the list is the number of appearance of 'a' or 'A' in the string, the second element is number of appearance of 'b' or 'B', and so on so forth.

I'm studying python 2 and have a lot of troubles with solving these homework questions.

1.Create a list that contains 10 successive integers starting with the value in the variable start. For example, if start is 7, the resulting list should be [7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16]. Store the list in a variable named my_list. Assume that the value of start has already been set.

2.Create a list that is made up of the first half of the elements of a list called original_list. Store the new list in a variable called half_list. Assume that the original list has already been initialized and contains an even number of elements.

3. Write a predicate function called same_ends that accepts a list of integers and an integer (n) as arguments. Return True if the first n numbers in the list are the same as the last n numbers in the list, and False otherwise. For example, if the list was [1, 2, 3, 4, 99, 1, 2, 3, 4], the function would return True if n is 4 and False if n is 3. Assume that n is between 1 and the length of the list, inclusive.

4.Write a function called highest_values that accepts as arguments a list of numeric values and a single integer (n). The function should return a list made up of the largest n values from the argument list in order from lowest to highest. For example, if the argument list is [46, 82, 25, 61, 70, 33, 54] and n is 3, the return value should be [61, 70, 82]. Assume that the argument list contains at least n elements.

5.Assume that a list of integers stored in a variable named original contains exactly two elements that are zero. Write code that creates a separate list that contains the elements from original that are between the two zeros. Do not include the zeros in the new list. Store the list in a variable named between_zeros.

6. Write a function called price_range that accepts a list of floating-point numbers representing prices as an argument and returns the the difference between the highest price and the lowest price. Do NOT use the built-in functions max or min in your solution. Assume that all prices are positive values and that none of them exceed 10,000.00.

7. Write a function called count_vowels that accepts a string argument that represents a word and returns the number of vowels that are in the word. The vowels are A, E, I, O, and U (ignore the 'sometimes Y' rule). Count both uppercase and lowercase vowels.

Assume that the variable table holds a two-dimensional list of integers. Write code that computes the sum of all elements in the table, assigning the result to the variable table_sum.

8. Write a class called WordSet representing a set of String objects which can contain an arbitrary number of strings, limited only by the memory available to the Java Virtual Machine. A set is a collection of elements, however, unlike a list, a set cannot contain duplicate elements. Therefore, as its name implies, a WordSet object cannot contain duplicate Strings that is, if one attempts to da String to a Wordset, and the wordset already contains an element which is equal to this string, the attempt will fail and the state of the Wordset will not change. All String comparisons performed in the methods defined in the Wordset class are done in a Case SENSITIVE manner. Note that in the method descriptions below, the phrase "this Wordset" means "the Wordset on which the method in question is called." Your Wordset class MUST provide the following INSTANCE methods • A constructor, which takes no parameters and initializes the new Wordset ohject so that it contains no elements • A method called add(), which takes as its only parameter a string and returns a value of type boolean. If this Wordset already contains a string which is equal to the parameter string, or the parameter String is null, then the state of this Wordset does not change and the method return false; otherwise, the parameter String is added to this Wordset. and the method returns true. • A method called remove().which takes as its only parameter a string and returns a value of type boolean. If this wordSet contains a string which is equal to the parameter String this string is removed from the WordSet and the method returns true. On the other hand, if the string parameter is null or this Wordset does not contain a string which is equal to the parameter string, then the state of this wordset does not change, and the method return false. • A method called get.size(), which takes no parameters and returns the number of strings currently stored in this Wordset. This method MUST NOT change the state of this Wordset. • A method called isMember(). which takes as its only parameter a string and retumsa value of type boolean which is true if this wordset contains the parameter String false otherwise. If the parameter String is null, this method also return false. This method MUST NOT change the state of this wordset. • A method called computebirrerence().which takes as its only parameter a Wordset and returns a new Wordset representing the difference between this wordset and the parameter Wordset: in other words, the WordSet returned by this method contains all the strings that are in this wordset, but not in the parameter Wordset. If the parameter Wordset contains all the elements of this WordSet or this WordSet contains no elements, then this method returns a new Wordset containing no elements. Finally, if the parameter Wordset is null or contains ne strings, then this method returns a new wordset which contains all the elements of this wordset. This method MUST NOT change the state of this wordset or the parameter Wordset. • A method called tostring , which takes the parameters and turns a string which is the textual representation of this wordset. This textual representation consists of the concatena tion of the following clements - The String - The text representation of each clement in the WordSet; cach pair of adjacent clements is separated by the String", but this String MUST NOT appear before the first clement or after the last element - The String") The order in which the elements of this Wordset appear in the textual representation generated by the tostring() method does not matter. If the WordSet contains to Brings, then the textual representation returned by this method is ". Note that you MUST respect proper encapsulation practices that is, the attributes and methods of your class MUST be declared using the proper visibility modifier NINT Um an array list (of string) to keep track of the string stored in a wordt ob joot Is there a method defined in the Array loist class which determines whether in clementis already wored in an array ist, and which will do a case-sensitive comparison when liked on an Arraylint of strings?
