1) (10 points total) Write the Python code for the following flowchart (don"t forget comments!): Count = 8 x=1 Y Print "Not positive, no action needed" Count <= 0? while x < Count Print "I love Python" Trig = sin(x) Print "sine of ", x, "is", Trig x=x+1 N
2) (10 points) Draw a flowchart (either style) for the following code: def godoit(top): print "Yea ", top return junk = 12 for m in range(6): if m == 5: print "m is 5" godoit(m) else if m > 0: print junk, " divided by ", m, " is ", junk/m godoit(m) else: print "computers do not like dividing by 0"
3) (9 points) Give the output of the following Python program: def godoit(top): print "Yea ", top return junk = 12 for m in range(6): if m == 5: print "m is 5" godoit(m) else if m > 0: print junk, " divided by ", m, " is ", junk/m godoit(m) else: print "computers do not like dividing by 0"
4) (10 points) Draw a flowchart to solve the following problem: Problem: Count the number of times an input from the user via the keyboard is a real number between 3 and 27. The user will continue to give input until a value less than 0 is input. The program should print only one statement similar to "You put in 6 values between 3 and 27."
