  1. Write a program called positives.py. Define in this program a function called positives(x) that takes a list of numbers x as its argument, and returns a new list that only contains the positive numbers of x.

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(positives([-21, -31]))
        print(positives([-48, -2, 0, -47, 45]))
        print(positives([-9, -38, 49, -49, 32, 6, 4, 26, -8, 45]))
        print(positives([-27, 48, 13, 5, 27, 5, -48, -42, -35, 49,
                         -41, -24, 11, 29, 33, -8, 45, -44, 12, 46]))
        print(positives([-2, 0, 27, 47, -13, -23, 8, -28, 23, 7,
                         -29, -24, -30, -6, -21, -17, -35, -8, -30,
                         -7, -48, -18, -2, 1, -1, 18, 35, -32, -42,
                         -5, 46, 8, 0, -31, -23, -47, -4, 37, -5,
                         -45, -17, -5, -29, -35, -2, 40, 9, 25, -11,
                         -32]))

    The expected program output should be:

    []
    [0, 45]
    [49, 32, 6, 4, 26, 45]
    [48, 13, 5, 27, 5, 49, 11, 29, 33, 45, 12, 46]
    [0, 27, 47, 8, 23, 7, 1, 18, 35, 46, 8, 0, 37, 40, 9, 25]
  2. Write a program called dotproduct.py. Define in this program a function called dotproduct(a, b) that takes two arguments: the lists a and b. It returns the result of performing the dot product of a times b. The dot product is an algebraic operation that takes two equal-length sequences of numbers and returns a single number obtained by multiplying corresponding entries and then summing those products:

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(dotproduct([], []))
        print(dotproduct([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]))
        print(dotproduct([1.3, 3.4, 5.7, 9.5, 10.4],
                         [-4.5, 3.0, 1.5, 0.9, 0.0]))
        print(dotproduct([92, -39, 82, 16, -64, -1, -16, -45, -7,
                          39, 45, 0, 34, -3, -51, 71, 23, -8, 41, -40],
                         [-50, -81, 94, -84, 47, 86, 52, 19, -57, 36,
                          -20, 11, -42, 48, 14, 13, 9, -67, 92, 96]))
    
    

    The expected program output should be:

    0
    32
    21.45
    357
  3. Write a program called replicate.py. Define in this program a function called replicate(n, x) that takes two arguments: a list x and an integer number n, where n ≥ 0. It returns a new list that replicates n times each element contained in x.

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(replicate(7, []))
        print(replicate(0, ['a', 'b', 'c']))
        print(replicate(3, ['a']))
        print(replicate(3, ['a', 'b', 'c']))
        print(replicate(4, [1, 2, 3, 4]))
    

    The expected program output should be:

    []
    []
    ['a', 'a', 'a']
    ['a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'c']
    [1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4]
    
  4. The Fibonacci sequence is:

    0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, ...

    The sequence starts with 0 and 1. Any number that follows is calculated by adding the previous two numbers.

    Write a program called fibo.py. Define in this program a function called fibo(n) that returns a list with the first n Fibonacci numbers.

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(fibo(0))
        print(fibo(1))
        print(fibo(2))
        print(fibo(5))
        print(fibo(10))
        print(fibo(20))
        print(fibo(30))
        print(fibo(100))
    

    The expected program output should be:

    []
    [0]
    [0, 1]
    [0, 1, 1, 2, 3]
    [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34]
    [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584,
    4181]
    [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584,

  5. In statistics, the standard deviation σ is a measure of how spread out numbers are. It has the following formula:

    Where x is the arithmetic mean and is defined as follows:

    Write a program called deviation.py. Define in this program a function called deviation(x) that returns the standard deviation of the list of numbers contained in x.

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(deviation([42]))
        print(deviation([10, 20]))
        print(deviation([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]))
        print(deviation([7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7]))
        print(deviation([32, 88, 20, 26, 14, 24, 26, 44, 14, 94, 94, 72, 
                         8, 46, 92, 50, 38, 56, 60, 84]))
    

    The expected program output should be:

    0.0
    5.0
    1.4142135623730951
    0.0
    28.673855687716646
    
  6. Write a program called compress.py. Define in this program a function called compress(x) that takes a list x as its argument. If x contains consecutive repeated elements, they should be replaced with a single copy of that element. The order of the elements should not be changed.

    Test your program with the following main() function:

    def main():
        print(compress(['a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'a', 'a', 'd',
                        'e', 'e', 'e', 'e']))
        print(compress(['a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a']))
        print(compress(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']))
        print(compress([]))
    

    The expected program output should be:

    ['a', 'b', 'c', 'a', 'd', 'e']
    ['a']
    ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
    []
