Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 5, Problem 12RQ
Explanation of Solution
Lifetime:
Lifetime of a variable is defined as the time duration during which a variable remains stored in a specific memory location in the machine memory.
Scope:
A scope is defined as the context within the file of a computer program, in which variable names and identifiers are valid and can be used, or within which a declaration shows some effect.
Static scope:
When the scope of a variable is statically determined it is called static scope. The variables are bound at compile time regardless of when it is executed in the runtime...

Your task is to develop a design for Easy Checkout, a new self-service checkout system. You should follow a function-oriented design approach, i.e. you should develop:1. a data flow diagram2. structure chartsYour design should focus on the processing of a single product. This will provide the foundation for the full design of EasyCheckout. Details on the requirements that you are to work with are given below.2 Informal Requirements for Easy CheckoutUsing Easy Checkout, customers take responsibility for presenting products to an optical barcode reader. Once this scanning process is complete for each product, the barcode is converted into the store’s internal product identification scheme. Customers place scanned products on a conveyor belt, which takes them to the packing area. Note that the conveyor belt also provides a weighing capability, i.e. the products are weighed in order to check that they match up…arrow_forwardIn C++arrow_forward
