2. Converts a mark for a course to its corresponding letter-grade. (You may set your
own scale for the grading)
3. Checks if a number is EVEN or ODD.
4. Counts and displays the number of even and odd occurrences in a given list of
integers.
5. Finds the minimum and maximum of two given numbers.
6. Finds the minimum and maximum numbers from a given list of numbers.
7. Searches for the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of two natural numbers.
8. Searches for the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two natural numbers.
9. Converts a decimal number to its binary equivalent.
10. Finds the number of days in a month of the Gregorian calendar.
11. Displays the next day’s date, given today’s date.
12. That accepts two numbers and displays the product, sum, and difference of the
two numbers.
