Problem to solve:
The Serendipity Booksellers has a book club that awards points to its customers based on the
number of books purchased each month. The points are awarded as follows:
If a customer purchases 0 books, they earn 0 points
If a customer purchases 1 book, they earn 4 points
If a customer purchases 2 books, they earn 8 points
If a customer purchases 3 books, they earn 16 points
If a customer purchases more than 3 books, they earn an additional 7 points on top of
the 16 points for each book above 3.
Serendipity Booksellers also awards points based on the dollar value spent on non-book
merchandise. Four (4) points are awarded for every $10 spent. Partial awards are not provided.
For example, 4 points will be awarded for spending $10.00 up to $10.99. No points are awarded
for less than $10.
Preferred Customers receive a bonus of double award points.
The Serendipity Booksellers website needs to be updated to ask the customer to enter the
number of books purchased last month, the dollars spent on non-book merchandise, confirm if
they are a Preferred Customer, and then calculate and display the number of award points
earned.
Requirements:
For this assignment; 1. Your program will calculate the award points as described above. 2. You will generate HTML comments to add your name, section and TA name. Each on a
separate line within the <Head> tags. This will (should) NOT be visible in the document on the web browser).
3. Utilize a <form> tag 4. You will then add the HTML tags with the proper JavaScript code to produce:
a. A textbox to solicit the number of books purchased b. A textbox to solicit the dollars of non-book merchandise c. Grouped radio buttons to determine Preferred Customer membership d. A button to calculate the number of points awarded e. A readonly textbox to display the result the calculation
5. Utilize JavaScript comments to explain the steps you are preforming within your code. A
JavaScript comment’s form is:
/* Place your comment between the stars */

6. Variable names should be descriptive. For example, if a program is calculating the total
charge for a bill at a restaurant, it may have a variable named tipAmount.
7. Utilize at least one if/else statement. Consider using the if/else in determining the
bonus points.
A sample of what your webpage could look like:
Additional Information:
Since the contents of a textbox, is going to be used in mathematical operations. Textboxes
sometimes treat input as Strings. Use the function parseInt() to convert the String text to a
number. Otherwise your calculation operations will not perform as expected.
JavaScript provides several math utilities. The Math.floor() method rounds a number
DOWNWARDS to the nearest integer, and returns the result.
