How do i Create a program that determine the shipping cost for an order based on the following table:
From To Price
$0.00 $19.00 $2.95
$20.00 $49.99 $3.95
$50.00 $74.99 $4.95
$75.00 $1000.00 $Free
I don't understand how to do this...Would anyone please help create a program please?
Certainly! I can help you with that. To create a program that determines the shipping cost based on the provided table, you can use conditional statements in your programming language of choice. Here's a step-by-step approach to help you get started:
1. Declare a variable to store the total order amount.
2. Get the user input for the order amount.
3. Use if-else or switch statements to check the order amount against each shipping range in the table.
4. Based on the order amount, assign the corresponding shipping cost to another variable.
5. Display the shipping cost to the user.
Here's an example in Python:
```python
order_amount = float(input("Enter the order amount: "))
shipping_cost = 0.0
if order_amount >= 0.0 and order_amount <= 19.0:
shipping_cost = 2.95
elif order_amount >= 20.0 and order_amount <= 49.99:
shipping_cost = 3.95
elif order_amount >= 50.0 and order_amount <= 74.99:
shipping_cost = 4.95
elif order_amount >= 75.0 and order_amount <= 1000.0:
shipping_cost = 0.0
else:
print("Invalid order amount entered.")
if shipping_cost > 0.0:
print("The shipping cost for your order is $" + str(shipping_cost))
else:
print("Shipping is free for your order.")
```
In this example, the user is prompted to enter the order amount, and the program uses if-elif statements to determine the shipping cost based on the range in the table. The result is then displayed to the user.
Feel free to modify the code according to your programming language of choice.
