The Happy Cow Ice Cream Company manufactures several types of ice cream. Design a flowchart or pseudocode for a program that accepts an ice cream flavor (for example, “triple chocolate”), price per gallon, and number of gallons sold in the average year. Display a message that indicates whether the ice cream is a bestseller, which is defined as a flavor that sells more than 40,000 gallons per year.
To design a flowchart or pseudocode for the given program, you can follow these steps:
1. Start the program.
2. Prompt the user to enter the ice cream flavor.
3. Read the ice cream flavor input from the user.
4. Prompt the user to enter the price per gallon.
5. Read the price per gallon input from the user.
6. Prompt the user to enter the number of gallons sold in the average year.
7. Read the number of gallons sold input from the user.
8. Calculate the total gallons sold in the average year (number of gallons sold per day * 365).
9. Check if the total gallons sold is greater than 40,000.
10. If the condition is true:
- Display a message indicating that the ice cream is a bestseller.
Otherwise:
- Display a message indicating that the ice cream is not a bestseller.
11. End the program.
Here is a pseudocode representation of the program:
```
Start the program
Prompt the user to enter the ice cream flavor
Read the ice cream flavor input from the user
Prompt the user to enter the price per gallon
Read the price per gallon input from the user
Prompt the user to enter the number of gallons sold in the average year
Read the number of gallons sold input from the user
Calculate the total gallons sold in the average year (number of gallons sold per day * 365)
Check if total gallons sold is greater than 40,000
If the condition is true:
Display "The ice cream flavor is a bestseller."
Otherwise:
Display "The ice cream flavor is not a bestseller."
End the program
```
This pseudocode can be converted into a flowchart by representing each step as a separate block and connecting them with arrows to indicate flow of control.
