Write a C++ program that asks the user to choose a number
between 1 and 1000. Then,
your program should be able to guess the number by asking
the user no more than 10 yes/no
questions. Use a while loop in your program
Answer / i4o
Instead of giving the full program the expectation of this question could be logical skills or applying heuristics in deducing the given problem domain (1-1000) in to smaller pieces. The decision tree could be like whether the number could be even or odd thus eliminating 50% then based on number of digits etc. But it expects to use while loop. So it should be solved mathematically. The following snippet (C#) uses the something similar to binary search (Cutting the problem domain exactly by half each time) and any number could be cracked with 10 questions.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int low = 1, high = 1000;
int mean;
string userresponse;
while (low != high)
{
mean = (low + high) / 2;
Console.WriteLine("Is the number between {0} & {1}", low, mean);
userresponse = Console.ReadLine();
if (userresponse.CompareTo("y") == 0)
{
high = mean;
}
else
{
low = mean+1;
}
}
Console.Write("You Guessed : {0}", low);
Console.Read();
}

If P is the population on the first day of the year, B is the birth rate, and D is the death rate, the estimated population at the end of the year is given by the formula: The population growth rate is given by the formula: B – D Write a program that prompts the user to enter the starting population, birth and death rates, and n, the number of years. The program should then calculate and print the estimated population after n years. Your program must have at least the following functions: 1. growthRate: This function takes its parameters the birth and death rates, and it returns the population growth rate. 2. estimatedPopulation: This function takes its parameters the current population, population growth rate, and n, the number of years. It returns the estimated population after n years Your program should not accept a negative birth rate, negative death rate, or a population less than 2.
