How to calculate tax using C3 objects without using any pre-stored data in database

J-T
Thanks
Here is what I am trying to do without using database :
These is a simple application with the description below, can someone help
me on how to create classes,collect ions, .... for this:

Basic sales tax is applicable at a rate of 10% on all goods, except books,
food, and medical products that are exempt. Import duty is an additional
sales tax applicable on all imported goods at a rate of 5%, with no
exemptions.

When I purchase items I receive a receipt which lists the name of all the
items and their price (including tax), finishing with the total cost of the
items, and the total amounts of sales taxes paid. The rounding rules for
sales tax are that for a tax rate of n%, a shelf price of p contains
(np/100 rounded up to the nearest 0.05) amount of sales tax.

I have to Write an application that prints out the receipt details for these
shopping
baskets...

I promised I'd put together a PEP for a 'generic object' data type for Python 2.5 that allows one to replace __getitem__ style access with dotted-attribute style access (without declaring another class). Any comments would be appreciated! Thanks! Steve ----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am using ASP to read code from a text file that I am displaying on my page.

I cannot use VBScript's replace function to replace all spaces with   because that would replace all spaces, including ones that I do not want...

Hi. I use the tilda ~ symbol to calculate URLs from the base of the application when using Response.Redirect() eg.

Hello! Whilst refactoring an application, I was looking at optimizing a ModelFactory with generics. Unfortunately, the business objects created by the ModelFactory doesn't provide public constructors (because we do not allow developers to instantiate them directly). Because our business objects are instantiated very frequently, the idea of using reflection sounds like a performance killer (I haven't done any tests on this, but the...

I have read in Bjarne Stroustrup that using malloc and free should be avoided in C++ because they deal with uninitialized memory and one should instead use new and delete. But why is that a problem? I cannot see why using malloc instead of new does not give the same result.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
