In dtp, a good rule of thumb is to use as many special effects as you need to make your documents look interesting.

The reset circuit used on the four 3-bit counters analyzed in this activity reset the counts to zero (000). it makes sense for the up-counters to start at zero (000), but the down-counters should start at seven (111). what would you need to change so that the 3-bit binary down counter with j/k flip-flops you just created would reset to seven (111)?

Using a conditional expression, write a statement that increments numusers if updatedirection is 1, otherwise decrements numusers. ex: if numusers is 8 and updatedirection is 1, numusers becomes 9; if updatedirection is 0, numusers becomes 7.

Write a program that keeps asking the user for new values to be added to a list until the user enters 'exit' ('exit' should not be added to the list). these values entered by the user are added to a list we call 'initial_list'. then write a function that takes this initial_list as input and returns another list with 3 copies of every value in the initial_list. finally, inside print out all of the values in the new list. for example: input: enter value to be added to list: a enter value to be added to list: b enter value to be added to list: c enter value to be added to list: exit output: a b c a b c a b c note how 'exit' is not added to the list. also, your program needs to be able to handle any variation of 'exit' such as 'exit', 'exit' etc. and treat them all as 'exit'.
