Using Visual C++ 2008
Write a program that inputs two (2) numbers and determines which of the two numbers is the smallest. If the numbers are equal, display a message that they are equal.
Sample Output from Program:
You will be asked to enter two numbers.
The smallest value will be displayed or a message if they are the same.
Please enter a numeric value: 4
Please enter a numeric value: 7
The smallest value is 4
Press any key to continue . . .
Step 2: Pseudocode
Using the pseudo code below, write the code that will meet the requirements:
Display description of program
Prompt the user for the first number
Prompt the user for the second number
If first number equals second number
Display the two numbers are equal
Else
If first number is XXXXX than second number
Assign second number to smallest
Else
Assign first number to smallest
End-If
Display smallest number
End-If
Step 3: Create a new project
Create a new project and name it LAB2A.
Write your code using the Processing Logic in Part A Step 2.
Step 4: Save program
Save your program by clicking File on the menu bar and then clicking Save Program.cpp, or by clicking the Save button on the toolbar, or Ctrl + S.
Step 5: Build Solution
To compile the program, click Build on the menu bar and then click the Build Solution or Build LabC option. You should receive no error messages. If you see some error messages, check the code above to make sure you didn't key in something wrong. Once you make your corrections to the code, go ahead and click Build >> Build Solution again.
Step 6: Execute the program
Once you have no syntax errors, to execute or run your program, click Debug on the menu bar, and then click Start Without Debugging.

Part B: Calculate Shipping Charge
Step 1: Requirements
Write a program that inputs the amount of the purchase and calculates the shipping charge based on the following table:
$0.00 - $250.00: $5.00
$250.01 - $500.00: $8.00
$500.01 - $1,000.00: $10.00
$1,000.01 - $5,000.00: $15.00
over $5,000.00: $20.00
Sample Output from Program:
Enter a purchase amount to find out your shipping charges.
Please enter the amount of your purchase: 234.65
The shipping charge on a purchase of $234.65 is $5.00.
Press any key to continue . . .
Step 2: Pseudo code
Using the pseudo code below, write the code that will meet the requirements.
Display program information
Prompt the user for the sale amount
If sale amount > $5,000.00
shipping is $20.00
Else if sale amount > $1,000.00
shipping is $15.00
Else if sale amount > $500.00
shipping is $10.00
Else if sale amount > $250.00
shipping is $8.00
Else if sale amount > $0.00
shipping is $5.00
Else
shipping is $0.00
End-If
If shipping is $0.00
Display "Error incorrect input"
Else
Display sale amount and shipping charge
End-If
Step 3: Create a new project
Create a new project and name it LAB2B. Make sure you close your previous program by clicking File >> Close Solution.
Write your code using the Processing Logic in Part B Step 2.
Step 4: Save program
Save your program by clicking File on the menu bar and then clicking Save Program.cpp, or by clicking the Save button on the toolbar, or Ctrl + S.
Step 5: Build Solution
To compile the program, click Build on the menu bar and then click the Build Solution or Build LabC option. You should receive no error messages. If you see some error messages, check the code above to make sure you didn't key in something wrong. Once you make your corrections to the code, go ahead and click Build >> Build Solution again.
Step 6: Execute the program
Once you have no syntax errors, to execute or run your program, click Debug on the menu bar, and then click Start Without Debugging.
