Hi student,

One of the biology professors has asked us to help them get rid of a virus that has been spreading around as of late. The good news is, they have created a few bacteria strains that can attack the virus! The bad news is, we have a limited supply of these bacteria so we don't want to waste any. We need your help to figure out whether our bacteria will kill the cells infected with the virus.

We want you to create a percentKilled function that, given a 2D array, will print out a percentage (rounded to the nearest whole number) of how many infected cells were destroyed.

Attached is some starter code. We are going to be busy culturing more of these bacteria to save us from extinction, so we're relying on you to implement this function!

Please help us cure the world, Paco

The Bacteria

Here are how the two bacteria strains we have developed can attack infected cells (Xs represent cells we could kill, L and W represent our bacteria, _s represent uninfected cells):

  • Leo coli: they can move exactly 2 spaces up, down, left, right, or diagonally at 45 degrees to consume an infected cell, like so:
X _ X _ X _ _ _ _ _ X _ L _ X _ _ _ _ _ X _ X _ X 
  • Willmonella: they can move up to three steps in any cardinal direction (up, down, left, or right), then up to one step at a right angle, like so:
_ _ X X X _ _ _ _ _ X _ _ _ X _ _ X _ _ X X X X W X X X X _ _ X _ _ X _ _ _ X _ _ _ _ _ X X X _ _ 

Each bacterium can only move from its starting position. They cannot move somewhere, then move again. They can attack as many infected cells as they can reach, only from their starting position.

Note: We have added spaces above to make it more readable. There will be no spaces in the arrays.

Tissue Samples

We have a few patients (Deep and Don) and samples of their tissue that we can test our bacteria on. Each tissue sample is square, perfect for representing as a 2D array (how convenient, right?). We will supply you with these tissue samples as 2D arrays whose values have the following meanings:

  • I: Infected Cell
  • L: A Leo coli bacterium
  • W: A Willmonella bacterium
  • _: An uninfected cell (bacteria will ignore these)

No other value will appear in these arrays.

Your Task

Download the starter code: cease_the_disease_starter.cimage text in transcribed

Implement the functions:

int percentKilled(Tissue tissue_sample) bool canLeoEat(Tissue tissue_sample, int x, int y) bool canWillEat(Tissue tissue_sample, int x, int y) 

The latter 2 functions are designed as helpers for the former. Use them wisely. We may also test them individually.

Implementation Details

A Tissue is a compound data type that is just a 2D char array that has been renamed:

typedef char Tissue[TISSUE_SIZE][TISSUE_SIZE]; 
  • Each tissue sample is exactly TISSUE_SIZE * TISSUE_SIZE in dimensions
    • Each row is TISSUE_SIZE long.
    • There are TISSUE_SIZE columns in every tissue sample array.
    • The indices are, in order, [COLUMN][ROW].
  • Function arguments should not be mutated by any of your functions.
  • The characters representing each type of bacterium, infection, etc. are fixed; they will never change.

Submission

  • Do not modify anything other than the functions which you're supposed to implement.
  • Remove any printf() statements you may have added while testing/debugging your solution.
    • Your functions (other than main) should print nothing!
  • Do not post any partial solutions or descriptions of your solution algorithm to the Piazza forum. If you have questions, please bring these to office hours!

starter code

#include // Note this is needed to use the bool type

#include

#define TISSUE_SIZE (10)

// We are going to take advantage of the 'typedef' keyword - it can be used to make

// a nickname for any data type, not just compound data types as we have been doing

// in lecture. For this exercise, we're going to be dealing with 2D arrays that

contain

// different symbols, we will create a convenient nickname for these 2D arrays.

// The typedef below creates an alias 'Tissue' for a char array of size

[TISSUE_SIZE][TISSUE_SIZE].

// Thereafter, we can do this:

//

// Tissue one_tissue;

//

// and this is equivalent to:

//

// char one_tissue[TISSUE_SIZE][TISSUE_SIZE];

//

typedef char Tissue[TISSUE_SIZE][TISSUE_SIZE]; // The syntax is kind of funky, but

that's just a

// quirk of C, nothing to worry

yourself about :)
