1. Finance Challenge: Portfolio Optimization You are tasked with developing a program to optimize an investment portfolio. Write a function, PortfolioOptimizer, that takes as input arguments the expected returns and standard deviations of various assets, along with the correlation matrix between the assets. The function should output the optimal weights for each asset in the portfolio to minimize risk for a given target return. Test the function with sample data and ensure it returns the correct asset weights.

Compute and Plot the ROC Curve Write a function from scratch called roc_curve_computer that accepts (in this exact order): a list of true labels a list of prediction probabilities (notice these are probabilities and not predictions - you will need to obtain the predictions from these probabilities) a list of threshold values. The function must compute and return the True Positive Rate (TPR, also called recall) and the False Positive Rate (FPR) for each threshold value in the threshold value list that is passed to the function. Important: Be sure to reuse functions and code segments from your work above! You should reuse two of your above created functions so that you do not duplicate your code. The function you will write behaves identically to Scikit-Learn's roc_curve function, except that it will take the list of thresholds in as input rather than return them as output. Your function must calculate one value of TPR and one value of FPR for each of the threshold values in the list.…
can ya please do it step by step? Create a shiny app in R to demonstrate the sampling distribution of sample proportion. Your app shouldaccept following arguments.• Population Proportion• Sample Size• Number of samples: default value is 500Your function should output the sampling distribution of sample proportion as a histogram,mean of sample proportions, and SD of sample proportions.
Write a program that generates random numbers between -25 and 25 by using the randint function. The program will add up the numbers and terminate when the sum of the values becomes zero. The program should contain the following functions: add() : add up the values main(): the function where the program execution should begin and end. randomgen(): a function that returns a number between -25 and 25 A global variable subsetsum that keeps track of the sum The program should output the count of the number of values generated before exiting saying that the subset sum was zero.
Write the definition of the function inputArray that prompts the user to input 20 numbers and stores the numbers into alpha. Write the definition of the function doubleArray that initializes the elements of beta to two times the corresponding elements in alpha. Make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha. Write the definition of the function copyAlphaBeta that stores alpha into the first five rows of matrix and beta into the last five rows of matrix. Make sure that you prevent the function from modifying the elements of alpha and beta. Write the definition of the function printArray that prints any one-dimensional array of type int. Print 15 elements per line. Write a C++ program that tests the function main and the functions discussed in the parts above. (Add additional functions, such as printing a two-dimensional array, as needed.)
Create the following in R programming language: a function which contains the following: – takes as input a data frame, and the two elements of a frame that you want to model –Plot the data fit with a smoothing spline with the default cross validation, vs the smoothing spline with 2 degrees of freedom (linear fit). –Test the difference of fit using the F test –Plot the normal quantile quantile plots for the residuals.
thello is a board game and you are expected to implement the move function for this game. Arguments passed to the function are - a symbol of the player making the move and x y coordinates of the cell at which the player wishes to make the move. The move function will be returning a boolean, false - if the move isn't feasible and true - if the move is feasible and this function will also make the move then i.e. make the required changes in the board. Input Format: Line 1: Integer n (Total number of moves) Line 2: Player 1 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Line 3: Player 2 coordinates, x and y (Two integers separated by space) Note 1: Number of moves (i.e. n) is always even and Player 1 always starts the game. Note 2: If any player's coordinates are not valid, enter again till the right move. Main function is given for you reference.

Tracking your commute times for two weeks (10 days), and you recorded the following times in minutes: 17 16 20 24 22 15 21 15 17 22 Enter this into a vector called commute. Use R functions to find the average and a statistical summary. Suppose the 24 was a mistake; it should have been 18. How can you fix this? Do so, and then find the new average. Hint: Index into the vector, then use an assignment statement to fix this mistake. How many times was your commute 20 minutes or more? What percent of your commutes are less than 17 minutes? How can you answer this with R? Briefly explain the result of the following commands. Hint: Refer Vector data extraction summary in CheatSheet commute + 1 commute[-6] sum(commute>21 | commute<16) commute[commute>=17] sum(commute[commute>20]) commute[4:6]

Creating Functions Who's Return Shouldn't Be IgnoredThe Problem: Some functions return a value that never should be ignored. For example, there is no reason that anyone would want to call malloc and ignore the results. Is there any way to force people to use the return value of a function?
This program should be designed and written by a team of students. Here are somesuggestions:o One student should design function main, which will call the other functions inthe program. The remainder of the functions will be designed by other membersof the team.o The requirements of the program should be analyzed so each student is givenabout the same work load.o The parameters and return types of each function should be decided in advance.o The program can be implemented as a multi-file program, or all the functions canbe cut and pasted into the main file.Here is the assignment: Write a program that can be used by a small theater to sell tickets forperformances. The theater’s auditorium has 15 rows of seats, with 30 seats in each row. Theprogram should display a screen that shows which seats are available and which are taken.For example, the following screen shows a chart depicting each seat in the theater. Seats thatare taken are represented by an * symbol, and seats that are…
Write a function called hw3_problem1 that takes a matrix A of positive integers as its sole input. If the assumption is wrong, the function returns an empty matrix. Otherwise, the function doubles every odd element of A and returns the resulting matrix. Notice that the output matrix will have all even elements. For example, the call B = hw3_problem1([1 4; 5 2; 3 1], will make B equal to [2 4; 10 2; 6 2]. You are not allowed to use loops.
