The required code written in python 3 which assigns participants to the 4 groups based on the instruction given goes thus :
def assign(p):
#initialize a function named assign which takes in one argument which is the number of participants
if p%2 == 0 :
#checks if the number of participants is even
val = p/4
#divide the number into 4 equal groups
a,b,c,d = (val,val,val,val)
#assign the equal value to the group ’s using tuple unpacking
print('Group A = %d, Group B = %d, Group C = %d, Group D = %d' %(a,b,c,d))
#display the grouping
else :
#if it is not even, then
val = p//4
#get the whole number divison into 4 groups
rem = p%4
#get the remainder value
a,b,c,d = (val, val, val , val+rem)
#assign the whole number to the first three groups and the sum of the whole number and remainder to the fourth group
print('Group A = %d, Group B = %d, Group C = %d, Group D = %d' %(a,b,c,d))
#display the allocation of participants
Therefore, the sample run of the program is attached below.
