9. John is using a computer in which arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /, **) are not working. But
as his assignments deadline are near he is looking for alternative methods. Help him out
in solving the below questions using other operators.
a. To calculate the power of 2 up to n terms.
Eg. 2 , 2 , …… ,2
0 1 (n-1)
b. Check whether a given number is even or odd.
Hint - express the given num in the binary number system for analysis
and check the least significant bit. (use pen and paper to analyze )
Eg. 5 => 101
10 => 1010
c. Multiple a given number by 33.
Hint - (n * 2 + n)
5
- (33 = 2 + 2 )
5 0
Try using “bitwise or” and “bitwise shifts” operators instead of addition and
multiplication operators.

4. Tiling of a rectangular floor is performed. Write a program that calculates the number of
tiles required and the total cost to tile the entire floor. Take the dimensions of the floor
and the size and price of each tile as input from the user. Also consider labor charges.
Input:
Length of the floor (l_f - float)
Width of the floor (w_f - float)
Size of each tile (a - float) - assume it is a square tail
Cost per tile (p_pt - float)
labor charge per unit area (l_cost - float
Output:
Maximum number of tiles required (int)
Total cost of tiling the floor (float)

5. Two persons A and B are conducting a Chemical experiment. In which A is user element
D and E in ratio of 2:1 and B uses the ratio of 4:3, calculate the mass of the compound if
each generates a 1 mole gram of substance given that the mass of D is 1 unit(amu) and
E is 5 units(amu). Take the values from the user.
Hint - Consider using split() method on the input string
eg-
"1:2".split(":") # [‘1’,’2’]
a,b = "1:2".split(":") # a <- '1' ; b <- ‘2
a,b = int(a), int(b) # type casting char/string to integers
