[cisco]

__________________________________________________ ________________
Project brief.

(a) A newspaper vendor wants to calculate his daily income. You must write a program to input the number of papers he sells each day and the price he sells them at. he pays VAT at 21% and each paper costs him 50 + 20 cent delivery.

(b)Expand this program to input the number of papers he buys and the number he sells. He returns the papers he does not sell, but he must still pay the delivery charge on them.

Project should contain:

Pseudocode for (a) above
Test Data
Code

Pseudocode for (b) above
Test Data
Code..

What is VAT?

[nickyeng]

your program should be easy even if you're not a c++ programmer.

what i have to deeply learn about c++ is templates, header files(as interface class file in java), etc.

Your program (a) involves only calculation. In here you dont have to learn much about C++ language except those available variables type.

Hope you get a post of your code, and then people here will help you for sure.

Here's the code you were wanting to know about. For future reference it is better if you have a question to at least post the code you have tried as nickyeng said in his last post. This forum is a wonderful resource, but only if you're willing to try and learn yourself. I myself am new to C++ and have always found that members of this forum will help as long as you're giving an honest effort. Good luck with the rest of your classes. The program should work fine with the exception of the VAT calculation. I'll let you figure that bit out.

thanks for the code its nearly works just have to fix some errors ( whats this means --system("cls") anyways i think i know how to type in (*vat at 21.% symply use 0.21 as for the number and add to the function..!

tell me wat you think!?!
