All employees are to be payed a base rate $20 per hour for the firs 40hours worked,and rate 50% more than the base rate for all hours worked greater than 40.

Accepted answer
I presume the file just contains the hours worked for each employee.

Try this:

using System;
using System.IO;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
// read file into int array
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines("alexandra.txt");
int[] hours = new int[lines.Length];
for(int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++) hours[i] = int.Parse(lines[i]);

// now process array
for(int i = 0; i < hours.Length; i++)
{
int wage = hours[i] * 20;
if (hours[i] > 40) wage += (hours[i] - 40) * 10;
Console.WriteLine("Employee {0,2}, Hours {1,2}, Weekly Wage ${2,4}", i + 1, hours
[i], wage);
}

Console.ReadKey();
}
}

Sure, try:

using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Console.Write("Enter initial value of house : $");
int value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
int years8 = 0;
int finalValue = 1000000;
while (value < finalValue)
{
value *= 2;
years8++;
}

Console.WriteLine("It will take {0} years until the house is worth a million dollars",
8 * years8);
Console.ReadKey();
}
}

Can you help with one more program?
i don"t know how multiplay until 1000000

If the value of a house doubles in value every 8 years,write a program that will input the initial value of a house,and then determine how many years it will take until the house is worth a million dollars.

It means right justify the second and third arguments to Console.WriteLine in fields two characters wide and the fourth argument in a field four characters wide. This is just to make the output line up better.

I tested the code on this simple text file:

40
50
30
55

The output of the program was:

Employee 1, Hours 40, Weekly Wage $ 800
Employee 2, Hours 50, Weekly Wage $1100
Employee 3, Hours 30, Weekly Wage $ 600
Employee 4, Hours 55, Weekly Wage $1250

Hi Alexandra,

Why you want to write this logic in C#? I believe, you have database. You can keep your logic in database to avoid unnecessary looping in C#.

Please let me know if you want more help from my side.
