Sales Tax Program Refactoring

Program Plan:

  • Declare a function named “calc()”. This function accepts a parameter named “amt”. Inside the function,
    • Assign state sales tax value to the variable “s_salestax”.
    • Assign county sales tax value to the variable “c_salestax”.
    • Calculate state sales tax and store it in a variable “sstax”.
    • Calculate county sales tax and store it in a variable “cstax”.
    • Calculate total tax and store it in a variable “totaltax”.
    • Calculate total sale and store it in a variable “totalSale”.
    • Print the values.
  • Inside the “main ()” function,
    • Get the amount from the user and store it in a variable “amount”.
    • Call the function “calc()” by passing “amount” as the argument.
  • Call the main function.

C++ Project ( Build the requested system 100% into a C++ environment, excluding Class framework & All defined variables must be represented as pointer type, int, char etc)Scenario:A bookshop (PRIMER BOOKSHOP) wants to maintain the inventory of books that are being sold at the shop. The list includes details such as author, title, price, publisher, and stock position. Whenever a customer wants a book, the sales personnel inputs the title and author, and the system searches the list and displays whether it is available or not.- If it is not, an appropriate message is displayed.- If it is, then the system displays the book details and requests for the number of copies required.- If it is requested, copies of the book details and requests for the number of copies required are available, the total cost of the requested copies is displayed and your system needs to update the database.- Sales personnel, from time to time are allowed to update the latest stock and price to the created…
Automobile Costs Problem:Design a modular program that asks the user to enter the monthly costs for the following expenses incurred from operating his or her automobile: loan payment, insurance, gas, oil, tires, and maintenance. The program should then display the total monthly cost of these expenses, and the total annual cost of these expenses.
Requirements for Your M5 Assignment 1 Pseudocode for Program Integration For the first module, write the pseudocode to process these tasks:(Note: lines beginning with # are comments with tips for you) From the random module import randint to roll each die randomly # in pseudocode, import a random function # the name is helpful for the next M5-2 assignment Define a class called Dice In Python, the syntax has a colon after it: class Dice(): In pseudocode, you can specify it generally or be specific Under the class declaration, list the attributes. Here are some tips: # attributes are what we know about a single die (dice is plural) # self is the first attribute in Python and must always appear first # add a num_sides attribute and to set it to 6 for the 6 sides on the dice Define a method for roll(self) # it describes what happens when we roll a single die # in the code, it will look like this example def __init__(self, dice_sides=6): # in pseudocode, we do not worry about…
