Explanation of Solution
Function definition for “replace_byte()” function:
The implementation for “replace_byte()” function is given below:
//Header file
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
//Function definition for replace byte function
unsigned replace_byte(unsigned x, int i, unsigned char b)
{
//Check if value of "i" is less than "0", then
if (i < 0)
{
//Display error message
printf("error: value of i is negetive\n");
return x;
}
/* Check if value of "i" is greater than "sizeof(unsigned)-1", then */
if (i > sizeof(unsigned)-1)
{
//Display error message
printf("error: value of i is too high");
return x;
}
/* Assign the value of mask that is for byte
in general, 1 bye = 8 bits and then << implies *8 */
unsigned m = ((unsigned) 0xFF) << (i << 3);
//Defines the byte position
unsigned bytePosition = ((unsigned) b) << (i << 3);
//Return given value
return (x & ~m) | bytePosition;
}
//Main function
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
/* Call replace_byte function for replace byte 2 in given "x" by byte "0xAB" */
unsigned replaceByte2 = replace_byte(0x12345678, 2, 0xAB);
/* Call replace_byte function for replace byte 0 in given "x" by byte "0xAB" */
unsigned replaceByte0 = replace_byte(0x12345678, 0, 0xAB);
/* Check if the replaced byte equals to given value using "assert" function */
assert(replaceByte2 == 0x12AB5678);
assert(replaceByte0 == 0x123456AB);
return 0;
}
The given code is used to return an unsigned value in which byte “i” of argument “x” has been replaced by “b”...

Write a c function that swaps the first and the last elements of chunks in an array. For an array consisting of 9 elements and assuming a chunk of size 3:
Array elements: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
The output would be, 3 2 1 6 5 4 9 8 7
Inverting here means swapping the last and the first element of a chunk.
Note: Size of array should always be multiple of chunk size. User will enter the size of array and chunk
In Python write a function decoding() that takes an encoded string and an integer as the parameters, and returns the original string.
The encoding was performed as follows. First, the original string is reversed. Then, each character in the new string is replaced by the character that is a given number of positions away in the ASCII character encoding table. For example, the following call to yur function :
encoding('ABCabc', -10)
should return the encoded string 'YXW987'.
A company wants to transmit data over the telephone but is concerned that its phones may b tapped. It has asked you to write a program that will encrypt the data so that it may be transmitted more securely. All the data transmitted is 4 digit integers. Your program should read a four digit integer entered by the user and calls a function encrypt which takes four digits as arguments and encrypt it as follows
. Replace each digit with the result of adding 4 to the digit and getting the remainder after dividing
the new value by 10.
. Calls another function swap which swaps the first digit with the third, and second digit with the
fourth using pass by reference.
Then it prints the encrypted integer.

- This exercise is to write a Decimal to Hex function using BYTE operations. You can use a List, Dictionary or Tuple for your Hex_Map as shown below, but it's not necessary to use one. It is necessary to use Byte operations to convert the decimal to hex. The bitwise operations are also available as __dunders__. Write a function to convert a integer to hexidecimal. Do not use the Python hex function (i.e. hexnumber = hex(number)) to convert the number, instead write your own unique version (i.e. MYHEX: hexnumber = MYHEX(number)). Your function should not use any Python functions like hex, dec, oct, bin or any other Python functions or modules. Functions, like Python ORD, can be used to convert a string to a integer.

We are developing an encryption module for the communication system in C++. You are supposed to input data in a character array of size 100. After taking input in array pass this array to a function to encrypt. This function applies following encryption on data. For testing purposes, after encryption function is called, the main function should print the encrypted data in the array. Convert upper case letters to lower case and lower case letters to upper case. After conversion replace each alphabet with its next alphabet, for example “A” will be replaced by “B”, “B” will be replaced by “C”, and so on. Similarly “a” will be replaced by “b” etc. However, “Z” should be replaced by “A” and “z” should be replaced by “a”. Digits must be replaced by subtracting it from 9 for example 0 should be replaced by 9 (9-0=9), 1 should be replaced by 8 (9-1=8), 2 should be replaced by 7 (9-2=7)………… and 9 should be replaced by 0 (9-9=0).
