| Question | A lot of information is freely available on the web, but not a lot of it is in forms that computers find useful to read. A common use of regular expressions is to understand or parse data from a human-centric view like a webpage into a computer-centric view like CSV (comma-separated values). One source of data is the Richmond Times-Dispatch’s summary of Virginia state salaries’s, obtained using the state’s Freedom of Information statute. To avoid overloading the newpaper’s website with hundreds students testing their code, we have a mirror of the 2018–2019 UVA salary data you can have your code access on our servers for this assignment. http://cs1110.cs.virginia.edu/files/uva2018/ When you visit a page, you see a rendering of the content, but under the hood most web pages are written in a language called HTML. Like Python, this is a text-based representation that describes what the computer is supposed to do. Unlike Python, it is a markup language, not a programming language, meaning it is interested primarily in describing data rather than specifying processes. The nuances of HTML are not important for our task; all you need to do is write regular expressions to find specific information within it. You can view the HTML of any web page using the “view source” option of your web browser (typically either via the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+U or Cmd+Opt+U). The source is what urllib.request will retrieve, what your regular expressions will need to look at, and what we discuss below. |

| Question | Question 1 One of the most straightforward ways to quantify the biodiversity of an environment is simply to count the number of different species that can be found there, irrespective of how many times a particular species is observed. This measure is known as species richness. Write a function get_species_richness() that calculates the species richness of a habitat, based on a series of observations of various bird species. The function takes one argument: observed_list, a list of independent observations of bird species. The function should return a tuple consisting of: • the species richness, calculated as the number of different species observed; and • an alphabetically sorted list of the species that were observed. |

| Question | Problem Description – Forecasting Electricity Prices The problem is to forecast electricity price based on historical data. Let the temperature and total demand of electricity at time instant t be T(t) and D(t) respectively. The goal is to predict the recommended retail price (RRP) price by using some historical data as system inputs. The historical data set consists of the following variables: T(t-2), T(t-1), T(t), D(t-2), D(t-1), D(t). The output should be a prediction of the Recommended Retail Price (RRP) of electricity at the next time instant t+1, denoted by P(t+1). You have been provided with real-world electricity pricing data from Queensland, Australia. There are two datasets: a training set, to be used for model development; and a test set, to be used to evaluate the performance of your models. Each dataset has the same structure. Rows correspond to successive time instants, and contain seven values: the predictor variables T(t-2), T(t-1), T(t), D(t-2), D(t-1), D(t), and the target variable P(t+1). The objective is to predict the value of P(t+1) on the basis of one or more of the six predictor variables. There are five parts to the assignment, described below, with the approximate assessment weighting. Parts 1, 2 and 3 are based on content that has been covered up to then end of Week 5. Content for Part 4 will be covered in Week 6 and 7. |

| Question | 3. The stocking system is updated daily at 11:59 pm. This number has been consistent every day until the beginning of a new financial year. At the beginning of the new financial year each year (15t July), the company will impose a 10% increase in the supply of cantilever umbrellas to its distributors (rounded up) and 5% increase of the RRP due to inflation. 1. Based on statistics, global financial crisis happens every 9 years, and lasts for another 2 years, the number of cantilever umbrella distributed to distributors will drop by 20% in the first year when global financial crisis hit the market, the number will continue to drop by 10% and 5% for the next 2 years when the economy is recovering. In order to make up the losses, during the year that a global financial crisis starts, the company will add an additional 10% increase in RRP to the product, the increase of the product RRP will become 5% in the next year, and 3% the year after to make up the loss. |

| Question | You have just inherited $100,000 from your rich uncle Sam. Being the conservative sort, you rush to your local bank and deposit the entire windfall. The reserve requirement is currently 10 percent. What is the immediate impact on the of the bank? Mention each account affected and the appropriate amount. Also, assuming your bank lends out money to the extent allowed by law, how much will the money supply grow beyond the initial $100,000 deposit? |

Order the answer to: Currently, at a price of $1 each, 100 popsicles are
| Question | Currently, at a price of $1 each, 100 popsicles are sold per day in the perpetually hot town of Rostin. Consider the elasticity of supply. In the short run, a price increase from $1 to $2 is unit-elastic (Es = 1.0). So how many popsicles will be sold each day in the short run if the price rises to $2 each? In the long run, a price increase from $1 to $2 has an elasticity of supply of 1.50. So how many popsicles will be sold per day in the long run if the price rises to $2 each? |

| Question | Suppose that in 1984 the total output in a single-good economy was 7000 buckets of chicken. Also suppose that in 1984 each bucket of chicken was priced at $10. Finally, assume that in 2004 the price per bucket of chicken was $16 and that 22,000 buckets were produced. Determine real GDP for 1984 and 2004, in 1984 prices. |
