Project [2]: Logical Expressions and Branching Statements

Project Goals

The goals of this project are to:

1. Get students familiar with evaluating logical expressions
2. Get students familiar with if else statements
3. Get students familiar with if else if else statements

Important Notes:

1. Formatting: Make sure that you follow the precise recommendations for the output content and formatting: for example, do not change the text of the problem from Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 1: to Enter volume, price: . Your assignment will be auto-graded and any change in formatting will result in a loss in the grade.
2. Comments: Header comments are required on all files and recommended for the rest of the program. Points will be deducted if no header comments are included.

Problem 1

Write a program that asks the user to enter information about three book collections. Each collection has a number of volumes and a price per volume (same for each volume in the collection). The program should ask how many volumes and what is the price per volume for each collection, as well as a budget available for a buyer named Bob. All values entered should be integers. The program should evaluate a set of logical expressions and print out specific messages based on the truth value of those expressions. The expressions are as follows:

• Bob has money.

If the condition is true (budget is greater than 0) the program should print:

(1) Bob has some money to buy collections.

If the condition is false, the program should print:

(1) Bob does not have money to buy anything.

• At least two collections are more expensive than Bobs Budget.

If the condition is true the program should print:

• At least two collections are more expensive than Bobs budget.

If the condition is false, the program should print:

(3) At least two collections are cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget.

• All the collections cost the same, only two collections cost the same, or no collections cost the same.

If all the collections cost the same, the program should print:

• All the collections cost the same.

If only two collections cost the same, the program should print:

(4) Only two collections cost the same amount of money.

If none of the collections cost the same, the program should print:

(4) No collections have the same price.

• Only one collection is cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget.

If the condition is true, the program should print:

• Only one collection is cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget.

If the condition is false, the program should print:

(4) More than one collection is cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget or they are all more expensive.

• The maximum number of collections that Bob can buy.

If Bob can buy all the collections, the program should print:

• Bob can buy all three collections.

If Bob can only buy two of the collections, the program should print:

(5) Bob can only buy two of the collections.

If Bob can only buy one of the collections, the program should print:

(5) Bob can only buy one collection.

If Bob cant buy any collection, the program should print:

(5) Bob cannot buy any collection.

The program should function as follows (items underlined are to be entered by the user):

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 1: 2 20

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 2: 3 30

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 3: 4 50

Enter Bobs budget: 100

• Bob has some money to buy collections
• At least two collections are cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget.
• No collections have the same price.
• More than one collection is cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget or they are all more expensive (5) Bob can only buy one collection.

Challenge for problem 1 (10 extra credit points):

Your program should also check the following conditions (you can add them at the end of the previous 5 in the original program):

(6) Bob has enough money to buy any one of the three collections.

If the condition is true the program should print:

• Bob has enough money to buy any one of the three collections.

If the condition is false, the program should print:

• Bob does not have enough money to buy any one of the three collections.

• Bob does not have enough money to buy any collection.

If the condition is true, the program should print:

• Bob does not have enough money to buy any collection.

If the condition is false, the program should print:

(7) Bob can buy at least one collection.

The program should function as follows (items underlined are to be entered by the user):

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 1: 2 20

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 2: 3 30

Enter volumes and price per volume for collection 3: 4 50

Enter Bobs budget: 100

• Bob has some money to buy collections
• At least two collections are cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget.
• No collections have the same price.
• More than one collection is cheaper than or equal to Bobs budget or they are all more expensive
• Bob can only buy one collection.
• Bob does not have enough money to buy any one of the three collections. (7) Bob can buy at least one collection.
