2. [6 points] Write a ConsoleProgram that asks the user to enter the radius of a circle
and the central angle of a sector (in degrees, always between 0 and 360).

The program then calculates and prints the area of the sector based on the following
formula:

r2
360
You must also define PI as a constant set to 3.14, and use this constant in your calcu-
lation. Sample output and a code template are given below.

import acm.program.*;

public class CircleSectorArea extends ConsoleProgram {

private static final double PI = 3.14;

public void run() {

int r = readInt("Enter radius: ");
int angle = readInt("Enter central angle: ");

double area = angle/360.0 * PI * r * r;

println("Sector area is " + area);

}
}

3. [6 points] Write a ConsoleProgram that asks the user to enter the duration of an
event in seconds and then converts that value to a combination of hours, minutes and
seconds. Sample output and a code template are given below. You may assume that the
user input is always a non-negative integer.

import acm.program.*;

public class SecondsToHours extends ConsoleProgram {

public void run() {
int fullSeconds = readInt("Enter seconds: ");

int secs = fullSeconds % 60;

int mins = (fullSeconds / 60) % 60;
int hours = fullSeconds / 60 / 60;

print(fullSeconds + " seconds is ");

print(hours + " hours, ");
println(mins + " minutes and " + secs + " seconds.");
}
}

4. [12 points] Write a ConsoleProgram that asks the user to enter two integers, x and n,
then calculates xn and prints the result. Sample output and a code template are given
below. You may assume that n is always a positive integer. Using a library function is
not allowed.

import acm.program.*;

public class Exponent extends ConsoleProgram {

public void run() {
int x = readInt("Enter x: ");
int n = readInt("Enter n: ");

int result = 1;
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
result *= x;
}
println(x +" to the power "+ n +" is " + result);

}
}

5. [16 points] Write a ConsoleProgram that reads an integer from the user, and then
prints the largest digit in that number. Sample output and a code template are given
below.

import acm.program.*;

public class LargestDigit extends ConsoleProgram {

public void run() {
int number = readInt("Enter a number: ");

int largestDigit = 0;
while(number > 0) {
int digit = number % 10;
if(digit > largestDigit) {
largestDigit = digit;
}
number /= 10;
}
println("Largest digit is " + largestDigit);

}
}

6. [10 points] Below is a program that uses nested loops to print a pattern of characters.

import acm.program.*;

public class NestedLoop extends ConsoleProgram {

public void run() {
for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
for (int j = 1; j <= 10; j++) {
if (((i + j) == 11) || i == 1 || j == 10) {
print("x");
} else {
print(" ");
}
}
println("");
}
}
}

What does the program above print? Provide your answer below, where each cell repre-
sents the position of a character. There may be more spaces than you need.

x x x x x x x x x x
x x
x x
x x
x x
x x
x x
x x
