Python Day-13 Looping-puzzles

Find whether all digits in a number are equal:

no = int(input("Enter no. "))   #333
equal = no%10 #4
while no>0:
    rem = no%10 #3
    if rem == equal:
        equal=rem
    else:
        print("All Numbers are not equal")
        break
    no//=10 #123
else:
    print("All numbers are equal")
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output:

1)Enter no. 6666
All numbers are equal

2)Enter no. 465
All Numbers are not equal

Puzzles:

1) Horse runs,
12steps-->To reach 1 feet
For 1 hour-->runs 1 feet
In 2nd hour-->runs 2 feet
In 3rd hour-->runs 3 feet
In 4th hour-->runs 4 feet
Total how much feet horse have covered in 4 hours

total = 0
steps = 12
ft = 1
while ft<=4:
    total = total + steps*ft
    ft = ft+1
print(total)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output:

120
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2)Frog fell into 30 feet well
-->It climbs 1 feet per day but at the end of the day it falls 0.5 feet down.
-->So how many days it takes to reach the top.

height = 30
up = 1
down = 0.5
total = 0
days = 0
while total<height:
    total = total + up - down
    days+=1

print(days)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output:

60
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3)If a Clock is delayed by 5 minutes and for every hour it delays further 5 minutes(eg.1st-->11.00,2nd-->10.55,3rd-->10.50)
-->So if a clock shows 7'O clock then at 12'O clock ,How many minutes will be delayed.

morning = 7
afternoon = 12
difference = 5
late = 0
while difference>0:
    late = late + 5
    difference-=1
print(late)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output:

25
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

4)Convert railway time to normal time and vice versa.
eg:
Railway Time to normal time:
15:09 --> 3:09
Normal Time to Railway Time:
3:10 --> 15:10

time=float(input("Enter the time:"))
if time<=12:
    railway_time=time+12
    print("Railway time:",railway_time)

else:
    railway_time=12-time
    print("Railway time:",round(-railway_time,2))
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output:

Enter the time:16
Railway time: 4.0

Enter the time:4
Railway time: 16.0

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
