All programs should be written using Python programming language

Each question should be saved in a file name following the format Q#.py. Put all programs in one folder, name it HW3_YourName, compress it, and submit to Dropbox.

Q1) Write a program that uses loops to draw this pattern (first raw we have 0 white space, second raw 1 white space,

Q2) Running on a particular treadmill you burn 4.2 calories per minute. Write a program that uses a loop to display the

number of calories burned after 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 minutes.

Q3) Write a program that uses nested loops to collect data and calculate the average rainfall over a period of years. The

program should first ask for the number of years. The outer loop will iterate once for each year. The inner loop will

iterate twelve times, once for each month. Each iteration of the inner loop will ask the user for the inches of rainfall for

that month. After all iterations, the program should display the number of months, the total inches of rainfall, and the

average rainfall per month for the entire period.

Q4) At one college, the tuition for a full-time student is $8,000 per semester. It has been announced that the tuition will

increase by 3 percent each year for the next 5 years. Write a program with a loop that displays the projected semester

tuition amount for the next 5 years.

Q5) Design a program that asks the user to enter a store’s sales for each day of the week. The amounts should be stored

in a list. Use a loop to calculate the total sales for the week and display the result.
