Paint Job Estimator

Program Plan:

• Declare a “main ()” function. Inside this function,
  • Get square feet from the user and store it in a variable “sqfeet”.
  • Get price from the user and store it in a variable “price”.
  • Call the function “estimation()” by passing “sqfeet” and “price” as arguments.
• Give function definition for “estimation ()”. This function accepts two arguments and stores those arguments in the corresponding parameter variables named “sqfeet”, and “price”. Inside this function,
  • Calculate number of gallons and store it in a variable “gallons”.
  • Calculate total hours of labor and store it in a variable “hoursL”.
  • Calculate paint cost and store it in a variable “cost”.
  • Calculate labor charges and store it in a variable “Lcost”.
  • Calculate total cost and store it in a variable “totalcost”.
  • Finally print the values of “gallons”, “hoursL”, “cost”, “Lcost”, and “totalcost”
• Call the main() function.
