Salary problem...(Beginner)

Jul 29th, 2009
//Make an interactive program that will ask for
hourly rate of the employee and the number of
hours worked in a day. As DOLE mandates, more
than 8 hours of work a day is considered OT
(overtime) so the wage will be 1.5 * hourly
rate after the 8 hours of work.using loops,
compute the weekly wage.Given 6 days of work
in a week.Output the gross salary and net
salary( gross salary less 12%.)//


I dont know how work with the overtime...

here's my code..
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int day,hRate,wHours,;
    int total = 0;
    int i = 1;
    float cTax,gross,salary,nSalary,aTotal;
    float tax = .12;
    
    printf("Enter Hourly Rate: ");
    scanf("%d",&hRate);
    printf("Enter number of days you've worked: ");
    scanf("%d",&day);
    
    if (i <= day)
    {
         while (i <= day)
         {
             printf("\nEnter number of hours you worked in  Day %d:  ",i);
             scanf("%d",&wHours);
             salary=wHours*hRate;
             printf("\nYour salary for  day %d is %.2f  \n",i,salary);
             i=i+1;
             total=total+salary;
         
         }
    }
    else
    if ( wHours > 8)
    {
         while (i <= day)
         {
             printf("\nEnter number of hours you worked in  Day %d:  ",i);
             scanf("%d",&wHours);
             salary=wHours*(hRate*1.5);
             printf("\nYour salary for  day %d is %.2f  \n",i,salary);
             i=i+1;
             total=total+salary; 
         }
    }
    aTotal = total;
    printf("\nYour weekly gross salary is %.2f", aTotal);  
    cTax =tax*total;                
    printf("\n\n the tax is %.2f",cTax );
    gross=aTotal-cTax;
    printf("\n\n weekly net salary is %.2f", gross);
    
    
    getchar();
    getchar();

You need to follow your code--execute your code on paper. Follow line by line and write down on paper what the values are for the variables. For example: if (i <= day). You set i=1. So unless the user enters a value for day of "0" this will always get executed. If a someone worked "0" days, then there is no reason to run this program. No work = no pay.

I didn't look through/correct all of your code, but I've modified your code a bit to help you along.

  2. #include <stdio.h>

  4. int main()

  8.     //wHours should be float because people work partial hours sometimes
  9.     float wHours;
  10.     //hRate should be float because people aren't paid only in whole dollar amounts

Instead of putting the whole thing in main(), why not make one or two different functions for computing the total salary and gross salary.

Thanks for the idea guys i already solved it...
if you worked OT...The rate shud be (hRate*1.5)...Only the hours that you've OT will be multiplied the hRate by 1.5...Not the whole wHours...
So here's the final code...
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int day,hRate,wHours,;
    int total = 0;
    int i = 1;
    float cTax,gross,salary,nSalary,aTotal,OT;
    float tax = .12;
    
    printf("Enter Hourly Rate: ");
    scanf("%d",&hRate);
    printf("Enter number of days you've worked: ");
    scanf("%d",&day);
    
    if (i <= day)
    {
         while (i <= day)
         {
             printf("\nEnter number of hours you worked in  Day %d:  ",i);
             scanf("%d",&wHours);
             
             
             
             if ( wHours > 8)
             {
                OT=((wHours-8)*(hRate*1.5))+wHours*hRate;
                printf("\nYour salary for  day %d is %.2f  \n",i,OT);
                
             }
             else
             {
                  salary=wHours*(hRate);
                  printf("\nYour salary for  day %d is %.2f  \n",i,salary); 
                
                 }
             total=total+salary;    
             i++;
         }
    
    }
    aTotal = total;
    printf("\nYour weekly gross salary is %.2f", aTotal);  
    cTax =tax*total;                
    printf("\n\n the tax is %.2f",cTax );
    gross=aTotal-cTax;
    printf("\n\n weekly net salary is %.2f", gross);
    
    
    getchar();
    getchar();
}

  16.              /*compute the weekly wage*/
  17.              if (i % DAYS_IN_A_WEEK == 0) {
  18.                  printf ("Salary for #%d is %d",
  19.                                                    weekNumber, weekSalary);
  20.                  weekSalary = 0; /*A new week begins*/
  21.                  weekNumber++; /*Next week*/
  22.              }
  23.             total=total+salary;
  24.  
  25.          }
Can you show me the whole code? I really don't know how to use 2 functions.


Can you explain me what is this
weekSalary += salary; I don't know what is that...
