Car park fee

An car park charges a €5.00 minimum fee to use the car park for up to three hours. The car park charges an additional €1.0 per hour for each additional hour or part thereof. The maximum charge for any given session is €15.00. .

Write a program that calculates and displays the charges for each customer who uses the car park. Your program will accept the hours used by each customer. The program will display the charge for each customer and a running total for all usage. The program will have at least one method that calculates the charge for each customer.

Sample Dialoge:

Hello, welcome to the car park app

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 2

Customer Charge : 5.00

Total Receipt 5.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 3

Customer Charge : 5.00

Total Receipt 10.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 4

Customer Charge : 6.00

Total Receipt 16.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 5

Customer Charge : 7.00

Total Receipt 23.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 10

Customer Charge : 12.00

Total Receipt 35.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 20

Customer Charge : 15.00

Total Receipt 50.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : 21

Customer Charge : 10.00

Total Receipt 35.00

Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : -999

GoodBye

Try this:

using System;

class Test
{
static void Main()
{
double total = 0;
Console.Clear();
Console.WriteLine("Hello welcome to the car park app");

while (true)
{
Console.Write("\n Enter number of hours (-999 to quit) : ");
string entry = Console.ReadLine();
double hours;
double.TryParse(entry, out hours); // sets hours to 0 if entry is invalid
if (hours == -999)
{
Console.WriteLine("\nGoodBye");
return;
}
double charge = CalculateCharges(hours);
total += charge;
Console.WriteLine(" Customer Charge : {0:C}", charge);
Console.WriteLine(" Total Receipt : {0:C}", total);
}
}

static double CalculateCharges(double hours)
{
if (hours <= 3) return 5;
double charge = 5 + Math.Ceiling(hours - 3);
if (charge > 15) charge = 15;
return charge;
}
}

Incidentally, the sample entry for 21 hours is wrong - the charge should be 15.00 and the total receipt 65.00.

Hi ,

Go through with below code...

static void Main(string[] args)
{
string Result = "";
int Hour = 10;
int Total = 0;
int ExceedHour = 0;

if (Hour <= 3)
{
Total = 5;
}
else if (Hour > 3 && Hour < 999)
{

ExceedHour = Hour - 3;
for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++)
{
Total = 5 + ExceedHour;

}
}
else
{
Total = 0;
}
Result = Total + " Euro";
}
