What is it you are trying to achieve?
I have to make a program where i print out credit card monthly statements for customers.
The program asks for the number of purchases, then ask the customer to type in the amounts of their purchases one at a time and will accumulate this into a running total.
The company has a 20 cent service charge for each purchase made.
What is the problem you are having?
I can't add the cost of the purchases with the service charge because the second purchase always overwrites the first one and so on.
Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)
var customerName, business, address : string
var purchases, cost, sc : real
var service := 0.20
var minimum := 0.15
var total := 0
var serviceFee : real
put " "
put "Hello. Please enter your name"
get customerName : *
put " "
put "Please enter your business or work place"
get business : *
put " "
put "Please enter your address (street,city,province/state,postalcode)"
get address : *
put " "
put "Please enter the total number of purchases"
get purchases
sc := service * purchases
serviceFee := minimum * purchases
loop
total := total + 1
put " "
put "Please type in the cost of each item"
get cost
exit when total = purchases
end loop
var amountDue := purchases + service
put " "
put sc : 3 : 2
put amountDue : 10 : 2
put serviceFee
How do i get the costs to add up properly?
Thanks!
