C Programming. Use Code :: Blocks to write a program for this exercise: (Using Pointers and Strings)

Cost Estimate:

(a) Define a pair of parallel arrays that will be used for estimating the cost of a repair job. The first array should contain the names of various parts; the second array, the price of each part.

For example, these arrays might contain data like this:

{ "muffler", "oil filter", "spark plugs", ... }

{ 39.95, 4.95, 6.00, ... }

(b) Write a program that will present a menu of parts for the user, then permit him or her to select any number of parts from the menu. After selecting a part, the program should prompt for the quantity of that part (one or more) that will be used for the repair, calculate the price for those parts, and add it to a total price. When the user selects "Done" from the menu, print the total price of all parts needed, with a sales tax of 6%.

Explanation / Answer

#include<stdio>
#include<conio>

using namespace std;

int menu(string parts[])
{
   int c,i;
   clrscr();
   printf("Menu ");
   for(i=0;i<5;i++)
   {
       printf("%d. %s ",(i+1),parts[i]);
   }
   printf("6.Done ");
   printf("Enter choise");
   scanf("%d",&c);
   return c;
}
void main()
{
   string parts={"muffler","oil filter","spark plugs","engine oil","gaer box"} ;
   float p[]={39.95,4.95,6.00,10.0,20.0};  
   float tot=0;
   int c;

   while(1)
   {
       c=menu(parts);

       switch(c)
       {
           case 1:
               tot=tot+p[0];
               break;

           case 2:
               tot=tot+p[1];
               break;
           case 3:
               tot=tot+p[2];
               break;
           case 4:
               tot=tot+p[3];
               break;
           case 5:
               tot=tot+p[4];
               break;
           case 6:
               printf("Total amount is %f",tot);
               return;              
              

       }

   }
}
