Create a program named Auction that allows a user to enter an amount bid on an online auction item. Include three overloaded methods that accept an int, double, or string bid. Each method should display the bid and indicate whether it is over the minimum acceptable bid of $10. If the bid is greater than or equal to $10, display Bid accepted. If the bid is less than $10, display Bid not high enough. If the bid is a string, accept it only if one of the following is true: It is numeric and preceded with a dollar sign. It is numeric and followed by the word dollars. Otherwise, display a message that says Bid was not in correct format. using static System.Console; public class Auction { static void Main() { // Write your main here } public static void AcceptBid(int bid, int min) { } public static void AcceptBid(double bid, int min) { } public static void AcceptBid(string bid, int min) { } }

Question

Create a program named Auction that allows a user to enter an amount bid on an online auction item. Include three overloaded methods that accept an int, double, or string bid. Each method should display the bid and indicate whether it is over the minimum acceptable bid of $10.

If the bid is greater than or equal to $10, display Bid accepted.

If the bid is less than $10, display Bid not high enough.

If the bid is a string, accept it only if one of the following is true:

  • It is numeric and preceded with a dollar sign.
  • It is numeric and followed by the word dollars.

Otherwise, display a message that says Bid was not in correct format.

using static System.Console;
public class Auction
{
   static void Main()
   {
       // Write your main here
   }
    
   public static void AcceptBid(int bid, int min)
   {
   }
   public static void AcceptBid(double bid, int min)
   {
   }
   public static void AcceptBid(string bid, int min)
   {
   }

}
Expert Solution
Problem

Your use of overloading does not make sense.

You have mentioned that you will be using System.Console.

If you use that, you can either accept input from user as int, using the Console.Read() method. Or you can accept input as string, using the Console.ReadLine() method. So only one of your overloaded methods will run no matter what the user input is, so why use overloading ?

Based on the requirement of your program, you only need one AcceptBid method, the string one. And inside that method you have to use regular expressions to check if input is in desired format.

Below is the correct code based on your requirements.
