Write a program that asks the user to enter today’s sales for five stores. The program should then display a bar chart comparing each store’s sales. Create each bar in the bar chart by displaying a row or asterisks. Each asterisk should represent $100 of sales. You must use a loop to print the bar chart. If the user enters a negative value for the sales amount, the program will keep asking the user to enter the sales amount until a positive amount is entered, You must use methods, loops and arrays for this assignment. Sample Run 1: Enter today's sale for store 1 (negative value not allowed) 1000 Enter today's sale for store 2 (negative value not allowed) 1200 Enter today's sale for store 3 (negative value not allowed) 1800 Enter today's sale for store 4 (negative value not allowed) 800 Enter today's sale for store 5 (negative value not allowed) 1900 SALES BAR CHART Store 1:********** Store 2:************ Store 3:****************** Store 4:******** Store 5:*******************
Types of Loop
Loops are the elements of programming in which a part of code is repeated a particular number of times. Loop executes the series of statements many times till the conditional statement becomes false.
Loops
Any task which is repeated more than one time is called a loop. Basically, loops can be divided into three types as while, do-while and for loop. There are so many programming languages like C, C++, JAVA, PYTHON, and many more where looping statements can be used for repetitive execution.
While Loop
Loop is a feature in the programming language. It helps us to execute a set of instructions regularly. The block of code executes until some conditions provided within that Loop are true.
