Question

Write a program that will be used as an app to help users compute the tax and tip on a restaurant bill. The program should first ask the user to enter the charge for the meal. The program should then prompt the user whether the meal is in-restaurant "restaurant" or whether it will be carry-out "carry-out." If a meal is in-restaurant, it is taxable and should be taxed. The California tax rate is 7.25 percent, so you will need to add that much of the meal charge if the meal is in-restaurant. The program should then prompt the user on whether the service was excellent ("Excellent"), good ("Good"), or typical ("Typical"). The tip should then be 30 percent if the service was excellent, 20% if it was good, or 15% if it was typical. Note that the tip is computed based on the subtotal (before tax if applicable). Display the meal charge, the type of order (in-restaurant or carry-out), tax amount if applicable, tip amount, and total bill on the screen. Example input: "restaurant" and "Good" Example output: In-Restaurant Meal Subtotal: $38.55 Tax: $2.79 Tip: $7.71 Total: $49.05

00:01 In this video, we're going to be creating a c+ + program that will calculate the text for whether a user enters, whether the service was excellent, good, or typical.

00:16 And it will print out the price.

00:20 So to get started, we need to first create some global variables.

00:25 These global variables will be two of them, so we want to have charge in total.

00:35 Next, we want to have another one which is tip.

00:48 Oops, we want this to be an integer.

00:56 And what's the double, which is excellent, that equal to 0 .3.

01:13 And we want to do good and typical.

01:23 Typical is 1 .5 and 0 .2.

01:31 All right, that looks good.

01:36 So let's go over what we've done so far.

01:40 So we've created two variables where we have not added a value, the integer where we have not initialized a value, and three doubles where we've initialized a value.

01:57 Now we want to ask the user, actually we also want to create one more thing, which is a string and we want to call it place.

02:11 Now we want to ask the user to enter charge of meal, which we do c out and then the message and the end on the new line.

02:25 So we're going to take our charge variable and we are going to use c in and charge.

02:36 And this will call the user to input information.

02:40 Then we want to ask the user whether they would like to eat in or have carry out.

02:56 So we can create an if statement.

03:05 Actually before you create the if statement we need to then put the place and then we can create an if statement.

03:15 So for our condition with the if statement, we want to check if the user.

03:21 Has entered restaurant.

03:28 If they've entered restaurant, then we want to create a message for the user, where we ask them how they would rate their service...
