YOUR ASSIGNMENT This final graded project is divided into two parts.

Part 1 Turn to page 223 of your textbook and locate Programming Exercise 2—Calories Burned. Create a program that calcu- lates the number of calories burned while running on a treadmill. An individual running on this particular treadmill burns 3.9 calories per minute.

Design a program that uses a loop to display the number of calories burned after running 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 minutes. To complete Part 1,

1. Create a flowchart for this program using the data provided.

2. Create pseudocode for this program using the data provided.

Part 2 Turn to page 427 of your textbook and locate Programming Exercise 6—Golf Scores. You’ll create a program for a Golf Club that

n Reads each player’s name and golf score as keyboard inputs, and saves these records as golf.dat.

n Reads the golf.dat records and displays them.

To complete Part 2,

1. Create a flowchart for this program using the data provided.

2. Create pseudocode for this program using the data provided.

SUBMITTING YOUR WORK Congratulations! Now that you’ve completed the final graded programming project, you’re ready to apply all you’ve learned about programming to your own projects. All you must do now is inspect your completed project files one last time before you e-mail the files to your instructor for grading.
