Question

A parking garage charges a $2.00 minimum fee to park for up to three hours. The garage charges an additional $0.50 per hour for each hour or part thereof in excess of three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24-hour period is $10.00. Assume that no car parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that will calculate and print the parking charges for each of 3 customers who parked their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for each customer. Your program should print the results in a neat tabular format and should calculate and print the total of yesterday's receipts. The program should use the function calculateCharges to determine the charge for each customer.

Answer 1

Solve
#include <stdio.h>
#define NUM 3

using namespace std;

float calculateCharges (int hours)
{
if(hours<=3)
return 2;
else
{
float pay;
pay=0.5*(hours-3)+2;
if(pay>10)
return 10;
else
return pay;
}
}

int main()
{
float pay[NUM];
int hours[NUM];
int i;
for(i=0;i<NUM;i++)
{
printf("Input hours for customer #%d: ",i+1);
scanf("%d",&hours[i]);
}
float sum=0;

printf("\n# | hours | payment");
for(i=0;i<NUM;i++)
{
pay[i]=calculateCharges (hours[i]);
printf("\n%3d| %5d | $%7.2f",i+1,hours[i],pay[i]);
sum+=pay[i];
}
printf("\nTotal of yesterday's receipts: $%5.2f",sum);
return 0;
}
