Solution

Sure, here is a simple Python program that does what you asked for:

def isDuckNumber(n):
    n = list(str(n))
    if (n[0] == '0'):
        return False
    else:
        for i in range(1, len(n)):
            if (n[i] == '0'):
                return True
    return False

def main():
    num = int(input("Enter a positive number: "))
    if (num > 0):
        if (isDuckNumber(num)):
            print(num, "is a Duck Number")
        else:
            print(num, "is not a Duck Number")
    else:
        print("Please enter a positive number")

main()

This program works as follows:

  1. The main function asks the user to input a positive number.
  2. If the number is positive, it calls the isDuckNumber function with the number as an argument.
  3. The isDuckNumber function converts the number to a string and checks each digit. If it finds a '0' that is not the first digit, it returns True, otherwise it returns False.
  4. Back in the main function, it checks the return value of isDuckNumber. If it's True, it prints that the number is a Duck Number. If it's False, it prints that the number is not a Duck Number.
  5. If the number entered by the user is not positive, it prints a message asking for a positive number.

Sample Input and Output 1: num: 02 positive Sample Input and Output 2: num: -52142 negative Sample Input and Output 3: num: 0 zero

Given an integer ‘n’, Develop an algorithm and write a java program to check whether it is a Narcissistic number or not.Note: Narcissistic Number is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.Boundary Condition: 0  <  n  <= 10000Otherwise, print ‘invalid’ Input FormatNumber ‘n’Output Formatprint a single line containing the string "yes" if the presented scenario is possible or "no" otherwise (without quotes).

Write a program numbers.cpp that defines a functionbool isDivisibleBy(int n, int d);If n is divisible by d, the function should return true, otherwise return false.For example:isDivisibleBy(100, 25) == trueisDivisibleBy(35, 17) == falseThe program should also have a main function that tests your code. For example, it can ask the user to input two integer numbers and print Yes if the first number is divisible by the second, otherwise print No.

Write a program that repeatedly prompts a user for integer numbers until the user enters 'done'. Once 'done' is entered, print out the largest and smallest of the numbers. If the user enters anything other than a valid number catch it with a try/except and put out an appropriate message and ignore the number. Enter 7, 2, bob, 10, and 4 and match the output below.
