Some Python questions I need help with

Question

1) you have 4 tuples, a,b,c,d. Write an *efficient* program that returns one element from each tuple such that their sum is 0. Assume there is only one solution.
2) Write a function change(a,b,c,d,X), where a,b,c,d,X are 5,10,20 and 100 cent coins in your wallet and money you need to pay is given as X.
Return a list of coins per type followed by total number of coins, [5,10,20,100,total] if possible, else return -1.
Thanks! I have to submit these questions by Thursday!
Help with this homework is appreciated

Answer 1

naughty $Vengat, you should have been doing your homework instead of watching anime!

Answer 2

for 1: be snarky and set tuples values to 0

for 2: while wallet are not zero, if above c subtract d, if above above b subtract c, if above a subtract b, else subtract a.

that's the logic "psudeocode" of what you want to do. I'll leave you to figure out code bits, but if you're stuck, ask.

Answer 3

@Ahri I am stuck

Answer 4

on what, specifically?

Answer 5

I actually hate anime lmao.
I tried 6hours a day doing these questions

Answer 6

@$Vengat, I thought you were kidding about this, or it's a prank, is it? I suck in Python, but then again, here's my logic in c++ for #2, it's far from what you expected, but it's similar purpose.

Answer 9

I did 1)
we were not supposed to use what we didn't learn, including dictionaries but I used dictionaries as last resort
