[jessejamesjjr]

hey all, am a student of the University of Trinidad and Tobago. Am doing Computer Engineering - programming dip-bsc then masters- major in cryptgy...
any hows. am fascinated bout programming. if theres a code i have to write, i wouldnt 4 a sec leavt it until i get it to run...
i really love programming also i like to do web page design...

well i really came on here to be a part of the programmers forum- taughts and to share ideas....
i am seeking a greater help and understanding in programming -
C++ and java and netbeans...
so i hope to start interacting with u guys soon,,,,,,,

and if u can suggest any help i wwo greatly appreaciate it....
thanks

Write a program to solve the following problem. DO NOT USE AN IF-ELSE CASCADE.

Calculate the fine to be paid on a speeding ticket. If the automobile speed is less than 50 km/hr, there is no fine. If the speed is between 50 and 60 km/hr, the fine is $15. If the speed is between 60 and 70 km/hr, the fine is $30. If the speed is between 70 and 80 km/hr, the fine is $60. Finally, if the speed is over 80 km/hr, the fine is $150.
Print out the speed and the fine, or the words “no fine” if there is no fine

my codes....

#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int nNumbersofArgs,char*pszArgs[])
{
   int speed;
   int Letter;
   int a, b, c, d, e;

   cout<<"Enter the speed of the automobile"<<endl;
   cin>>speed;

   cout<<"The following are speeds that are categorized"<<endl<<endl;
   cout<<"a = speed is <50 Km/hr"<<endl;
   cout<<"b = speed is >50 and <=60 Km/hr"<<endl;
   cout<<"c = speed is >60 and <=70 Km/hr"<<endl;
   cout<<"d = speed is >70 and <=80 Km/hr"<<endl;
   cout<<"e = speed is >80 Km/hr"<<endl<<endl;

            a = speed <50;
            b = speed >50 && speed <=60;
            c = speed >60 && speed <=70;
            d = speed >70 && speed <80;
            e = speed >80;

   cout<<"Enter the Letter of the category that the speed of the automobile is in; ";
   cin>>Letter;

   switch (speed)
   {
    case 'A': case 'a':
      cout<<"Speed is " ;
      cout<<speed;
      cout<< " Km/hr and there is No Fine"<<endl;
      break;
    case 'B': case 'b':
      cout<<"Speed is " ;
      cout<<speed;
      cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $15.00 "<<endl;
      break;
    case 'C': case 'c':
      cout<<"Speed is " ;
      cout<<speed;
      cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $30.00"<<endl;
      break;
    case 'D': case 'd':
      cout<<"Speed is " ;
      cout<<speed;
      cout<< " Kn/hr and the Fine is $60.00"<<endl;
      break;
    case 'E': case 'e':
      cout<<"Speed is " ;
      cout<<speed;
      cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $150.00"<<endl;
      break;
      defalt:
      cout<<"Invalid Speed";
      cout<<endl;
   }

      system("PAUSE");
      return 0;
}

any suggestions as to wats wrong?? cause am not sure if am doing the SWITCH correct!!!!! thanks in advance

I will study first the codes you have given, I can't post a relevant reply for now. I will just post it later.

ok thanks alot look 4ward to ur help cause am still reading but am not sure if am doing the switch correct!!

[jessejamesjjr]

hey guys thanks alot 4 ur time i figured it out....
i was jus missing out main (void)
so heres d code now and it works corectly...

#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
int speed;
char Letter;
int a, b, c, d, e;

cout<<"Enter the speed of the automobile"<<endl;
cin>>speed;

cout<<"The following are speeds that are categorized"<<endl<<endl;
cout<<"a = speed is <50 Km/hr"<<endl;
cout<<"b = speed is >50 and <=60 Km/hr"<<endl;
cout<<"c = speed is >60 and <=70 Km/hr"<<endl;
cout<<"d = speed is >70 and <=80 Km/hr"<<endl;
cout<<"e = speed is >80 Km/hr"<<endl<<endl;

a = speed <50;
b = speed >50 && speed <=60;
c = speed >60 && speed <=70;
d = speed >70 && speed <80;
e = speed >80;

cout<<"Enter the Letter of the category that the speed of the automobile is in; ";
cin>>Letter;

switch (Letter)
{

case 'A': case 'a':
cout<<"Speed is " ;
cout<<speed;
cout<< " Km/hr and there is No Fine"<<endl;
break;
case 'B': case 'b':
cout<<"Speed is " ;
cout<<speed;
cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $15.00 "<<endl;
break;
case 'C':case 'c':
cout<<"Speed is " ;
cout<<speed;
cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $30.00"<<endl;
break;
case 'D': case'd':
cout<<"Speed is " ;
cout<<speed;
cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $60.00"<<endl;
break;
case 'E': case 'e':
cout<<"Speed is " ;
cout<<speed;
cout<< " Km/hr and the Fine is $150.00"<<endl;
break;
}

system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
