Write the pseudocode for an application that will pass the number of games a
player has played to a module which will calculate the net salary of a player.
A player earns R70 000 per game and as the players fall within a higher tax bracket,
they automatically pay 25% tax on their earnings. The net salary will be passed
back to the mainline logic of the application which will display the net salary of a
player.
(13)
Q.4.2 Within the context of the Sports Administration application, describe one example
of a situation where overloaded methods could be used.
Module calculateNetSalary(numGames)
earnings = numGames * 70000
tax = earnings * 0.25
netSalary = earnings - tax
return netSalary
Mainline Logic
display "Enter the number of games played: "
input numGames
netSalary = calculateNetSalary(numGames)
display "Net salary: " + netSalary
Pseudocode for calculating net salary based on number of games played:
```
module calculateNetSalary(numberOfGames):
gamePay = 70000
taxRate = 0.25
grossSalary = numberOfGames * gamePay
taxAmount = grossSalary * taxRate
netSalary = grossSalary - taxAmount
return netSalary
mainline logic:
gamesPlayed = 13
netSalary = calculateNetSalary(gamesPlayed)
display "The net salary is: " + netSalary
```
Example situation where overloaded methods could be used in the Sports Administration application:
In the Sports Administration application, we may need to calculate the net salary of a player based on different factors, such as the number of games played, the performance bonus, or the sponsorship deals.
In this case, we can define multiple overloaded versions of the `calculateNetSalary` method, each with a different set of input parameters. This allows us to calculate the net salary based on different factors, depending on the scenario.
For example:
```
module calculateNetSalary(numberOfGames):
// Calculation based on number of games played
// ...
module calculateNetSalary(numberOfGames, performanceBonus):
// Calculation based on number of games played and performance bonus
// ...
module calculateNetSalary(numberOfGames, sponsorshipDeals):
// Calculation based on number of games played and sponsorship deals
// ...
```
By using overloaded methods, we can handle various situations where the net salary calculation requires different input parameters, providing flexibility and reusability in the code.
