In this excerpt from jack london’s “to build a fire,” which sentence shows an external conflict? the dog was disappointed and yearned back toward the fire. this man did not know cold. possibly all the generations of his ancestry had been ignorant of cold, of real cold, of cold one hundred and seven degrees below freezing-point. but the dog knew; all its ancestry knew, and it had inherited the knowledge. and it knew that it was not good to walk abroad in such fearful cold. it was the time to lie snug in a hole in the snow and wait for a curtain of cloud to be drawn across the face of outer space whence this cold came. on the other hand, there was no keen intimacy between the dog and the man. the one was the toil-slave of the other, and the only caresses it had ever received were the caresses of the whip-lash and of harsh and menacing throat-sounds that threatened the whip-lash. so the dog made no effort to communicate its apprehension to the man. it was not concerned in the welfare of the man; it was for its own sake that it yearned back toward the fire. nextreset

You will be given two character arrays of the same size, one will contain a number of ships. ships will move around the character array based on which way they are facing and the route they are on. routes are given in the other array. the route consists of '-' and '|' for straight paths, '\' and '/' for curves, and '+' for intersections. there are ships on these routes. ships always face a direction, '^' for up, '> ' for right, 'v' for down, and '< ' for left. any time the ships hit a '\' or a '/' it will turn as you would expect a ship to turn (e.g. a '^' that moves into a '/' will turn right). at an intersection, ships will always continue straight through. all ships move at the same speed, ships take turns moving and all ships move during one 'tick'. the one in the most top left goes first, followed by those to its right, then the ones in the next row. it iterates along the rows and then down the columns. each ship moves one space on its turn moving along the route. your function needs to return the position of the first collision between two ships and the number of ticks before the crash occurred.

Consider the simple 3-station assembly line illustrated below, where the 2 machines at station 1 are parallel, i.e., the product only needs to go through one of the 2 machines before proceeding to station 2.what is the throughput time of this process?
