you are required to develop a program to calculate parking charges. each vehicles will be charged with minimum fee of RM 0.50 for motorcycle, RM 1.00 for cars and RM 1.50 for lorry that park in the area up to 2 hours. the parking lot will charges additional fee after 2 hours parking.
please help me how to calculate it by using c++ programming
Announcements - General Programming Boards
How about the first step, say
"Input type of vehicle"
"Input length of stay"
Then at least we can see what you're actually capable of, and gives us some confidence that you're not out for a completely free ride (which is how it looks at the moment).
Good morning to you too!Quote:

It would be difficult to give you an example that cannot be quickly hacked to meet your requirements - in other words, providing an example would likely be too close to just giving you a solution, and that we will not do.
Write what you can so far, and post the code you come up with. Salem gave you a good starting point in post #2. Instead of ignoring useful advice that is not the quick-and-free solution you're looking for, work with those who are trying to help you.
If you post code, be sure to use code tags.
Hmmm... my first contribution to the programming forum in years...
Here it goes...

We are not here to do your work for you, we're here to guide you along when you encounter a road block in your work. Typically, a lot of people don't like assisting others in doing their class assignments. Period. This is because class assignments are meant to encourage you to read whatever literature accompanies the course and, unless it's a really bad course, the book is going to guide you to your solution. That said, there are people here that will assist you with your assignment, but you have to at least show that you can start your code to the point where you encounter a specific concept that you're struggling with. At the very least, if you don't want to post code, explain what you've read in the book and inquire about what you're not understanding.
This was less exciting... back to not posting here for another few years.
So in the last 3 days since your first post, you've done no reading at all (books, tutorials, course notes) to even make at attempt at the most basic of programs, which is to prompt the user for some input and read a response.

# calculate the cost of parking here
I've known professors that would give that an "A" in a C++ course without looking twice at it. :)Quote:
