Solution

Here is a simple Python program that fulfills your requirements:

import sys

def make_change(cents):
    coins = [25, 10, 5, 2, 1]
    num_coins = 0

    for coin in coins:
        num_coins += cents // coin
        cents %= coin

    return num_coins

if __name__ == "__main__":
    if len(sys.argv) != 2:
        print("Error")
        sys.exit(1)

    cents = int(sys.argv[1])

    if cents < 0:
        print(0)
    else:
        print(make_change(cents))
``

You are given an integer array coins representing coins of different denominations and an integer amount representing a total amount of money.Return the fewest number of coins that you need to make up that amount. If that amount of money cannot be made up by any combination of the coins, return -1.You may assume that you have an infinite number of each kind of coin. Example 1:Input: coins = [1,2,5], amount = 11Output: 3Explanation: 11 = 5 + 5 + 1Example 2:Input: coins = [2], amount = 3Output: -1Example 3:Input: coins = [1], amount = 0Output: 0 Constraints:1 <= coins.length <= 121 <= coins[i] <= 231 - 10 <= amount <= 104

Mary is a cashier at a store and needs a program to help her break down amounts of money into specific denominations. Depending on the customer's preference, she needs to provide either the number of notes or coins needed to make up a given amount. Write a program that takes the amount of money and the preferred mode as input, and outputs the number of each denomination required to make up that amount.Company Tags: Adobe, InfosysInput format :The first line of input contains a double value, representing the amount of money.The second line contains a string, either 'notes' or 'coins', indicating the preferred mode of denomination.Output format :If the mode is 'notes', print the number of 500, 100, 50, and 10 denomination notes required, each on a new line.If the mode is 'coins', print the number of 25, 10, 5, and 1 cent coins required, each on a new line.If the mode is invalid, print "Invalid mode"Refer to the sample output formatting specifications.Code constraints :10.0 ≤ amount ≤ 5000.0Sample test cases :Input 1 :35.60coinsOutput 1 :25 cents: 14210 cents: 15 cents: 01 cent: 0Input 2 :2250.29notesOutput 2 :500: 4100: 250: 110: 0Input 3 :3000.50CurrencyOutput 3 :Invalid mode
