Hello, I was wondering if I could get help with this. The language I am using is Python
You are working for a lumber company, and your employer would like a program that calculatesthe cost of lumber for an order. The company sells pine, fir, cedar, maple, and oak lumber.Lumber is priced by board feet. One board foot equals one square foot that is one inch thick. Theprice per board foot is given in the following table: (image 1)
The lumber is sold in different dimensions (specified in inches of width and height, and feet oflength) that need to be converted to board feet. For example, a 2 x 4 x 8 piece is 2 inches wide, 4inches high, and 8 feet long, and is equivalent to 5.333 board feet (2 * 4 * 8 = 64, which whendivided by 12 = 5.333 board feet). An entry from the user will be in the form of a letter and fourinteger numbers. The integers are the number of pieces, width, height, and length. The letter willbe one of P, F, C, M, O (corresponding to the five kinds of wood) or T, meaning total. When theletter is T, there are no integers following it on the line. The program…
Problem:
A small company needs an interactive program to compute an employee’s paycheck. The payroll clerk will initially input the data, and given the input data, an employee's wage for the week should be displayed on the screen for the payroll check.
The data for the employee includes the employee's hourly pay rate and the number of hours worked that week. Wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked (up to 40 hours). If the employee worked more than 40 hours, wage is equal to the employee's pay rate times 40 hours plus 1½ times the employee's pay rate times the number of hours worked above 40.
Instructions:
Match the action at the left-side with the correct step number at the right-side (the attached picture). Note that it may be possible to group more than one related actions in the same logical step / process without altering the essence of the algorithm.
In the program flow, input and checking of hourly pay rate should come before that of the number…

During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forward
- Airline companies apply baggage restrictions for their passengers. An airline company has decided to apply a 10kg limitation for passengers' hand luggage and 20kg for their normal baggage. When passengers arrive, they enter their hand and normal luggage weight from the keyboard. If passengers exceed their normal baggage allowance of 10 dollars per gram, they pay 12 dollars per kg. Accordingly, write the program that calculates the baggage price of the airline they will go to according to the baggage values entered by the arriving passenger and keeps this from closing the program for each passenger. Note: If hand and normal baggage allowances are stretched below the maximum value, the payment amount will be considered not negative. An example printout is given on the right.

Whenever a purchase is made with cash, it is usual that change must be back to the customer. Business point of sales software help to ensure that the correct change is return to a customer by providing detailed information of the change that should be returned to the customer. using the fewest number of bills and coins. In this assignment, you are asked to design and implement a program that writes out what bills (ones, fives, tens, twenties) and coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters) that should be returned to the customer given two inputs from the user: A total cost of a sale. The amount that was paid by the customer. Ensure that your output is grammatically correct. If the customer does not provide adequate payment, you should print the following statement, the program should end.

Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer’s final score is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the 3 remaining scores. Write a program that uses these rules to calculate and display a contestant’s score. It should include the following functions: • void getJudgeData() should ask the user for a judge’s score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the 5 judges. • double calcScore() should calculate and return the average of the 3 scores that remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the 5 scores.Two additional functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the returned information to determine which of the scores to drop.•…arrow_forward
- A game calculates the average game scores for their players in three attempts. The score in the game is based on the number of attempts and the score in each attempt. Write a python program using void function with parameters concept. • Function accepts the number of attempts as a parameter. • Use loop to do the following, Accept the attempt score. Accept the number of players. • Calculate the final score, Final score = attempt score + (Number of players*0.25) • Calculate the average score, Average score = Total Final Scores in three attempts / number of attempts • Display the output of Average score. Call the function with three attempts.
