Play ball! In this exercise you will program the rules of baseball. The function baseball(away_hits, home_hits, N) plays an N-inning game, in which each successive batter's hits and outs are specified by the two "hits" lists: one for the away team and one for the home team. In each list, a 0 indicates an out, 1 a single, 2 a double, 3 a triple, and 4 a homerun. An inning consists of two half-innings of three outs each: the away team bats first, then the home team. A run is scored when a runner advances to home plate (also known as fourth base). On each hit, all runners advance the same number of bases as the hitter. If the teams are tied after N innings, they play extra innings until they are no longer tied. In the final inning, as soon as the home team is ahead, the game ends right there; don't wait for three outs. Define baseball(away_hits, home_hits, N) to play an N-inning game (including extra innings if necessary) and return a two-element list of runs scored: [away_score, home_score]. baseball([1, 2, 4, 0, 0, 0], [2, 2, 0, 0, 0], 1) → [3, 1] baseball([0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 1, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 2, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 2, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0], 9) → [2, 6] baseball([1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 2, 1, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 4, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], 9) → [9, 2] ...Save, Compile, Run (ctrl-enter) |
