On the classic gameshow The Price Is Right, contestants must guess the price of an object (guesses are distinct). The winner is determined to be the person whose bid is closest to the correct price, but without going over. For example, if the guesses were Alice 430 Bob 538 Carol 487 David 550 and the true price were 520, then Carol has the winning bid with 487. With the same bids as above, if the actual price had been 420, then no one would win, as everyone bid too high. Your job is to implement a function with signature judge (auction, price) in which auction is a nonempty list of (person, guess) tuples and price is the actual price. The function must return the name of the winning person (or None, if no one wins). For example, the first scenario above might be expressed as judge( [('Alice', 430), ('Bob', 538), ('Carol', 487), ('David', 550)], 520) and the string 'Carol' should be returned as the winner. Your function may assume that all parameters are valid. []

(5 points) theseus has been trapped in a maze with a minotaur, which is trying to capture him. each round, theseus and the minotaur move through the maze; theseus towards the exit, and the minotaur towards theseus. theseus can move in any of the four cardinal directions, or he can wait for a round to see how the minotaur moves. write code that creates a data type to represent the possible moves that theseus could make.

Assume the existence of a bankaccount class. define a derived class, savingsaccount that contains two instance variables: the first a double, named interestrate, and the second an integer named interesttype. the value of the interesttype variable can be 1 for simple interest and 2 for compound interest. there is also a constructor that accepts two parameters: a double that is used to initialize the interestrate variable, and a string that you may assume will contain either "simple", or "compound", and which should be used to initialize the interesttype variable appropriately. there should also be a pair of functions getinterestrate and getinteresttype that return the values of the corresponding data members (as double and int respectively).
