Gross / net salary calculator
Implement a program that calculates the gross and net salary of an employee. The program will request as data: the number of hours worked (nh), the price of the hour (ph) and the applicable withholding as a percentage (w). The gross (GS) and net (NS) salary is calculated as:
- \[GS = nh * ph\]
- \[NS = GS - (w/100*GS)\]
>>> %Run
Enter the number of hours worked: 56
Enter the price of the hour: 10
Enter the applicable withholding in %: 25
The gross salary is: 560.0
The net salary is: 420.0
To test your program you can try with the following test cases:
| test case ID | inputs | expected output | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| \(nh\) | \(ph\) | \(w\) | gross salary | net salary | |
| 1 | 56 hours | 10 euros/hour | 25% | 560 euros | 420 euros |
| 2 | 2.5 hours | 20.4 euros/hour | 25.6% | 51.0 euros | 37.944 euros |
| 3 | 1 hour | 25 euros/hour | 0.1% | 25.0 euros | 24.975 euros |
| 4 | 125 hours | 20 euros/hour | 0% | 2500.0 euros | 2500.00 euros |
Add a table with test cases. Also added cases for values that are
less obvious like 2.5 hours and 0.1%. So they test again their
assumptions of the types of the variables.
