Chapter 3, Problem 23PC
Stock Transaction
Last month Joe purchased some stock in Acme Software, Inc. Here are the details of the purchase:
• The number of shares that Joe purchased was 1,000.
• When Joe purchased the stock, he paid S45.50 per share.
• Joe paid his stockbroker a commission that amounted to 2 percent of the amount he paid for the stock.
Two weeks later, Joe sold the stock. Here are the details of the sale:
• The number of shares that Joe sold was 1,000.
• He sold the stock for $56.90 per share.
• He paid his stockbroker another commission that amounted to 2 percent of the amount he received for the stock.
Write a program that displays the following information:
• The amount of money Joe paid for the stock.
• The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he bought the stock.
• The amount that Joe sold the stock for.
• The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he sold the stock.
• Display the amount of profit that Joe made after selling his stock and paying the two commissions to his broker. (If the amount of profit that your program displays is a negative number, then Joe lost money on the transaction.)

The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forward
- Assignment Description This program will simulate part of the game of Yahtzee! This is a dice game that involves rolling five dice and scoring points based on what show up on those five dice. The players would record their scores on a score card, and then total them up, and the player with the larger total wins the game. A Yahtzee score card has two portions: The upper portion has spaces for six scores, obtained by adding up all of the 1's, 2's, 3's, etc. The lower portion has special scores for various combinations: Three of a kind -- at least 3 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Four of a kind -- at least 4 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Small straight -- four consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 2345;the score is 25 points Large straight -- five consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 23456;the score is 30 points Full House -- three of one kind, two of another; the score is 30 points Yahtzee! -- five of a kind; the…arrow_forward(Rounding Numbers) Function floor can be used to round a number to a specific decimal place.

- C++ Programming Problem: To make telephone numbers easier to remember, some companies use letters to show their telephone number. For example, using letters, the telephone number 438-5626 can be shown as GET LOAN. In some cases, to make a telephone number meaningful, companies might use more than seven letters. For example, 255-5466 can be displayed as CALL HOME, which uses eight letters. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a telephone number expressed in letters and outputs the corresponding telephone number in digits. If the user enters more than seven letters, then process only the first seven letters. Also output the hyphen after the third digit. Allow the user to use both uppercase and lowercase letters as well as spaces between words. Moreover, your program should process as many telephone numbers as the user wants.arrow_forwardC++ Visual 2019 A particular talent competition has five judges, each of whom awards a score between 0 and 10 to each performer. Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer's final score is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the three remaining scores. Write a program that uses this method to calculate a contestant's score. It should include the following functions: void getJudgeData() should ask the user for a judge's score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five judges. void calcScore() should calculate and display the average of the three scores that remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores. The last two functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the returned information to determine which of the…arrow_forwardComputer Fundamentals and Programming 2 Write a program that determines a student’s grade.

- 1. [LO 1, LO 2, LO 3 & LO 4, Treasure Hunter Description You are in front of a cave that has treasures. The cave can be represented in a grid which has rows numbered from 1 to , and columns numbered from 1 to . For this problem, define (x,y ) as a tile that is in the the-x row and the y-row. There is a character in each tile, which indicates the type of that tile. Tiles can be floors, walls, or treasures which are represented respectively by the characters '.' (period), '#' (hashmark), and '*' (asterisk). You can go through the floor tiles and treasures, but you can't get past the wall tiles.Initially, you are in a tile (??, Sy). You want to visit all the treasure squares, and retrieve the treasure. When you visit a treasure tile, the treasure is instantly retrieved, and the tile turns into a floor.In a move, if you are on a tile (?,y), then you can move to the right tile above (?-1,y), right (?,y + 1), down (? + 1, ), and left (?, 1) of the current tile.

Each time the user feeds the monster a nibble, hunger decreases by the decimal value of the character (i.e. if the user feeds 'A' hunger decreases by 65). But when the user feeds the monster some character that isn't a nibble, the hunger increases by the decimal value of the character (since puking depletes energy). Use while loop. Sample runs: Notice the loop exits after one iteration, because hunger was very low and one nibble made the monster full: Notice hunger increasing after non-nibble (pink highlight): Notice that the program just keeps going when the user feeds the monster only non-nibbles. Do you think the program will keep running forever if the user never gives the monster nibbles?arrow_forward
