For this work, your program is to read War and Peace (a text copy is included with this assignment) and it is to count and tally each of the words that are 6 or more characters long. And again, you will only use Linux (not library) file functions, i. e. open, close, read, seek. BUT, it is to do this using threads. Each thread will take a chunk of the file and process it, returning it’s results to the main which tallies (or if you directly tally to shared memory, that is okay) and then the main will print the ten, 6 or more character, words with the highest tallies, in order highest to lowest, and their associated counts. i. e. The top ten words and the number of times that word appears in the text.
Your program should take two parameters on the command line: FileName and ThreadCount
FileName is the name of the file to read – WarAndPeace. txt
ThreadCount is the number of threads you should spawn to evenly divide the work.
That is to say – if the parameter is 1, the entire file would be read and processed by one thread. If the parameter is 5, then you would divide the file into 5 equal parts (accounting for rounding on the last part). So thread one would take the first 1/5 of the file, thread 2 the second fifth and so on. But, these threads should all be launched together in a loop. So that they can execute in parallel.
#include in your code and in main, include the code below in your main. This will display how much time your program takes. Your submission should include a run with 1 thread, 2 threads, 4 threads, and 8 threads. How do the times compare?

Calculating the "total price" of an item is tedious, so implement a get_item_cost method that just returns the quantity times the price for an item. by the way, the technical term for this kind of instance method is an accessor method, but you'll hear developers calling them getters because they always start with "get" and they get some value from instance attributes. in order to make the items sortable by their total total price, we need to customize our class. search the lectures slides for "magic" to see how to do this. see section 9.8 for an additional reference. the receipt class: this will be the class that defines our receipt type. obviously, a receipt will consist of the items on the receipt. this is called the composition design pattern. and it is very powerful. instance attributes: customer_name : it is very important to always know everything you can about your customers for "analytics", so you will keep track of a string customer name in objects of type receipt. date : the legal team has required that you keep track of the dates that purchases happen for "legal reasons", so you will also keep track of the string date in objects of type receipt. cart_items : this will be a list of the items in the cart and hence end up on the receipt. methods: 1. create a default constructor that can take a customer name as an argument, but if it gets no customer name, it will just put "real human" for the customer_name attribute. it should also accept a date argument, but will just use the value "today" for the date instance attribute if no date is given. the parameters should be named the same as the instance attributes to keep things simple. 2. add_item : self-descriptive. takes a parameter which we hope beyond hope is of type itemtopurchase and adds it to the cart_items. returns none. 3. print_receipt : takes a single parameter isevil, with default value true. returns a total cost of all the items on the receipt (remember to factor in the quantity). prints the receipt based on the following specification: for example, if isevil is true, and customer_name and date are the default values: welcome to evilmart, real human today have an evil day! otherwise, it should print: welcome to goodgo, real human today have an good day! then the receipt should be printed in sorted order like we discussed earlier, but whether or not it starts with the highest cost (think reverse), depends on the value of isevil. if it is evil, then the lowest cost items should print first, but if it is good, then it will print the highest cost items first. (cost meaning price*quantity). remember to return the total cost regardless! your main() function: the main flow of control of your program should go in a main() function or the program will fail all the unit tests. get the name of the customer with the prompt: enter customer name: get the date with the prompt: enter today's date then, ask the question: are you evil? your program should consider the following as true: yeah yup let's face it: yes hint: what do these strings all have in common? your program should consider all the following as false: no nah perhaps but i'm leaning no (just be glad you don't have to handle "yeah no.") okay enough horsing around. (get it? aggies? ! horsing! ) next, in the main() function, you will have to create a receipt object and start adding things into it using an input-while loop. the loop will prompt the user for the item name exactly as in the previous zylab (9.11). but unlike the previous zylab, the loop will terminate only if an empty string is entered for the item name. then, the price and the quantity will be prompted for exactly as in the previous zylab. create the itemtopurchase objects in the same manner as the previous zylab, but don't forget to add them to the receipt using your add_item instance method. then, the items on the receipt should be printed with the same formatting as in the previous zylab, of course with either "good" or "evil" ordering. however, on the last line, the total should be printed as follows: where 10 is replaced by the actual total. sample run here is what a sample run of the final program should look like: enter customer name: nate enter today's date: 12/20/2019 are you evil? bwahahahaha yes enter the item name: bottled student tears enter the item price: 2 enter the item quantity: 299 enter the item name: salt enter the item price: 2 enter the item quantity: 1 enter the item name: welcome to evilmart, nate 12/20/2019 have an evil day! salt 1 @ $2 = $2 bottled student tears 299 @ $2 = $598 total: $600
