This code here is very simple and great for anyone starting out in turing. It only used simple put and get statements, if statements, and loops. If you would like any help with learning how to do this assignment then message me or reply to this and I will be glad to help you. *****Assignment***** Create a menu that gives the guests a minimum of 4 choices. Output a total at the end that includec GST and PST /* Name : Dave Angus Date : March 17th 2008 Task : Menu Description: This is a menu for a diner. This menu will give you your choices and then it will output your total. */ var ch : string (1) var numapp : int var total : real var nument : int var numdes : int var tip : real var option : string /* This is the options for the appetizers. The getch (ch) numapp := strint (ch) Makes it so that the user only has to type the number of their option as apposed to having to press enter. There is a (2000) delay after every option so that the user has time to process their new total. */ put "Welcome to Dave's Diner." put "Here are our options for our dinner menu:" put "Appetizers" put "1. Artichoke and cheese dip $7.89" put "2. Garlic Bread with cheese $4.95" put "3. Soup and Salad combo $9.99" put "4. I would not like an appetizer" getch (ch) numapp := strint (ch) if numapp = 1 then total := 7.89 elsif numapp = 2 then total := 4.95 elsif numapp = 3 then total := 9.99 elsif numapp = 4 then total := 0 end if put "Your total so far is: $" .. put total delay (2000) cls /*This is the entre options*/ put "Entres" put "1. Burger and fries $8.48" put "2. Turkey club with fries $9.47" put "3. Spagetti and meatballs $7.98" put "4. Steak with a baked potato $12.95" put "5. Chicken on a bun $8.98" put "6. I would not like an entre." getch (ch) nument := strint (ch) if nument = 1 then total := total + 8.48 elsif nument = 2 then total := total + 9.47 elsif nument = 3 then total := total + 7.98 elsif nument = 4 then total := total + 12.95 elsif nument = 5 then total := total + 8.98 elsif nument = 6 then total := total + 0 end if put "Your new total is: $" .. put total delay (2000) cls /*Here is the section in which people can select the desert that they would like.*/ put "Deserts" put "1.Ice cream sundae $3.98" put "2.

(yes or no)" get option if option = "yes" then put "How much? " get tip total := total + tip elsif option = "no" then put "Alright" end if /*Ending statement*/ put "Thanks for coming to Dave's Diner!" put "GST :", total * 0.08 put "PST :", total * 0.06 put "Total :", total * 1.14 |

I am just wondering why you are converting the string entered by the user into an interger. I understand you want to use getch which means your variable must be a string 1 character in length but you put the option in your if statement in quatations. PREVIOUS
TO
Also you could ask the user prior the displaying the selection if they are interested in that course. For example asking if they want dessert before showing the selection but still allowing them to choose none. |

THanks BigBear for the input. So what your saying is I should just take the numapp := strint (ch) part out? |

This could be made a LOT shorter. However, i commend your effort. Try learning more about turing to enhance your knowledge. |

This was made for Beginners. If I start using arrays and what not, BEGINNERS wont understand it. I am trying to keep it very simple! |

If I was teaching introductory programming in a high school environment, I think this would be an appropriate program to demonstrate different control statements  . No need to focus on clever optimization yet! |

Thats what i was saying was it not? Look at my code. When I say keeping it simple I mean use lots of puts and gets, no arrays and use some simple if statements. |

I know this is for beginners but you should have it round the grand total and for a more "advanced" tutorial (if you do one), use the GUI module, it makes everything more user friendly. |

Thanks for the input SIXAXIS. For the rounding, are you meaning to two decimal points or to the nearest dollar? Thanks again, -Dave |
