- 1. Retail Price CalculatorWrite an application that accepts from the user the wholesale cost of an item and its markup percentage. (For example, if an item’s wholesale cost is $5 and its retail price is $10, then the markup is 100%.)The program should contain a function named CalculateRetail that receives the wholesale cost and markup percentage as arguments, and returns the retail price of the item. The application’s form should look something like the one shown in Figure 6-22.arrow_forwardSavings Account The following steps calculate the balance after three years when $100 isdeposited in a savings account at 5% interest compounded annually:1. Declare the variable balance as type Decimal.2. Assign the value 100 to the variable balance.3. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value. (Write 5% as 0.05D.)4. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value.5. Increase the variable balance by 5% of its value.6. Display the value of balance (rounded to two decimal places) in a list box.arrow_forward5. Falling Distance determine the distance the object falls in a specific time period: 1 d The variables in the formula are as follows: d is the distance in meters, g is 9.8 - t is the amount of time, in seconds, that the object has been falling. Design a function named fallingDistance that accepts an seconds) as an argument. The function should return the distance, in meters, that the object has fallen during that time interval.

- Population Tracker Learning Objective: Using Python Repetition and Loop Statements Problem Description Write a Python program (Console and GUI) that predicts the approximate size of a population of organisms. The application should use text boxes to allow the user to enter the following information: starting number of organisms, the average daily population increase (as a percentage), and the number of days the organisms will be left to multiply. For example, assume the user enters the following values: Starting number of organisms: 2 Average daily increase: 30% Number of days to multiply: 10 The program should display the following table of dataarrow_forwardChapter 4: Making Decis ions I. Mass and VWeight (Nr 2, Page 282) Scientists measure an object's mass in kilograms and its weight in Newton. If you know the amount of mass of an object, you can calculate its weight, in Newtons, with the following formula: Weight = Mass x 9.8 Create an application that lets the user enter an object's mass and then calculates its weight. If the object weighs more than 1000 Newtons, display a message in a Label control indicating that it is too heavy and change the background colour of the label to red. If the object weighs less than 10 Newtons, display a message in a Label control indicating that it is too light and change the background colour of the label to blue. Otherwise display the weight, and change the background colour of the label to green. See example of graphical user interface and output: Newton converter Newton converter Enter the mass (kg) : Enter the mass kg): 1 Convert to mass (Newton) Convert to mass (Newton) It is too light. Exit Exit…arrow_forwardGPA Calculator Students are concerned about their GPA. They need to calculate it accurately every semester to monitor their progress. Develop a GPA calculator that follows the AOU regulations (AOU-OU Grade Scale) using C# programming language. The application asks the student to enter his numeric grade of each course and the course's credit hours. Accordingly, the application calculates the student's GPA after converting the numeric grade to letter grade. The GPA calculation should produce floating-point results. Display the results rounded to the nearest hundredth. You should store the letter grades of all student's courses in an array. The final grade of the student should be also calculated. Sample I/O Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 93 Enter the course credit hours: 3 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 74 Enter the course credit hours: 2 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): 60 Enter the course credit hours: 3 Enter the course grade (-1 to end): -1 The grades of your courses…arrow_forward
- True or false: Java variables cannot start with a capital letter.arrow_forwardThis is an operator used to assign a value to a variable. It works by transferring the value on its right to the variable on its left. greater than / equal (>=) equal (= =) less than / equal (<=) assignment (=)arrow_forwardTrue or False An enum declaration can only appear inside the application’s namespace.arrow_forward
- True or False The contents of variables and the values of expressions cannot be passed as arguments.arrow_forward1. Design and implement an application that reads an integer value representing a year input by the user. The purpose of the program is to determine if the year is a leap year (and therefore has 29 days in February) in the Gregorian calendar. A year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4, unless it is also divisible by 100 but not 400. For example, the year 2003 is not a leap year, but 2004 is. The year 1900 is not a leap year because it is divisible by 100, but the year 2000 is a leap year because even though it is divisible by 100, it is also divisible by 400. Produce an error message for any input value less than 1582 (the year the Gregorian calendar was adopted). 2. Modify the solution to the previous project (i.e., Leap year) so that the user can evaluate multiple years. Allow the user to terminate the program using an appropriate sentinel value. Validate each input value to ensure it is greater than or equal to 1582.arrow_forwardPrograming language is C# 6. Hospital Charges Create an application that calculates the total cost of a hospital stay. The daily base charge is $350. The hospital also charges for medication, surgical fees, lab fees, and physical rehab. The application should accept the following input: • The number of days spent in the hospital • The amount of medication charges • The amount of surgical charges • The amount of lab fees • The amount of physical rehabilitation charges Create and use the following value-returning methods in the application: • CalcStayCharges—Calculates and returns the base charges for the hospital stay. This is computed as $350 times the number of days in the hospital. • CalcMiscCharges—Calculates and returns the total of the medication, surgical, lab, and physical rehabilitation charges. • CalcTotalCharges—Calculates and returns the total charges.arrow_forward
