Programming

5.5 Final ExamHansen's Discount Supermarket

For this final exam, you may use the text, your notes, programs you have written, as well as PowerPoint slideshows used in class. However, this exam is designed to test your individual knowledge of the course material; Collaboration is not allowed.

Write a program and flowchart, and include a snippet of your program running.

You need to purchase some items at Hansen's Discount Supermarket.  You have a list of items but you know that when you get to the store you will most likely purchase other things.  After you have selected your products at the store, you get up to the self-checkout and the scanner is broken.  The manager approaches you because he knows that you are a knowledgeable programmer to help him design a small program quickly that will manually total items purchased and calculate the tax and final total of all sales.  See below for the specific specifications.

Instructions

· You must use at least two different arrays

· A character array to store the welcome message (note: when creating your flowchart you will need to declare this message with the string data type as a variable and assign the message).  Use the puts() function to display the message to the screen.

· An array with a float datatype to store the prices of the items

· Prompt the user to enter how many items they have to total.  Use a for() statement to fill the array using the value the user entered as the end point of the loop.

· Use an accumulating total statement to compute the total sales

· There is a constraint - if the price of any one item is greater than $10.00 it is considered invalid, you must use a repetitive statement to display a message and force the user to enter a value less than $10.00

· You need to create a function to compute the final total using a sales tax of 6% (.06)

· Review the output screenshot to see what should be displayed to the user after execution.

· Submission instructions:  upload the .c source file, a screenshot of the C output screen, and .fprg Flowgorithm flowchart file for grading using the instructions down below.

Here is what the output looks like.
