| Re: | Individual Assignment for Week 2 |
According to the University requirements for their website design, the University requires all students to make an order of at least five books where one of each book pertains to the course the student is taking. When a student makes an order of the textbooks, the program prompts the student to input the price of each book and the programs displays the total cost of the five books. Therefore, to solve the University’s problem, an algorithm is designed to define the steps that will be followed by the design.
The steps needed are as follows:
Problem definition
The University requires a website design that will enable its student’s order books online.
Requirement identification
When the student accesses the website to order their course textbooks, they will be prompted to input the price of each book. All students are required to order five books, one book for each course taken. Once the student inputs the price of each book, the program will auto calculate the total cost of the books and display.
Program inputs
The program will use the following inputs to execute the commands from the student and calculate the total cost of the books.
Number of courses
Number of Books
Price of each book
Input Process
The input process of the program will involve a few steps that will actively interact with the student once they access the website when ordering books. The student will be required to input the number of course taken in the university. Secondly, the student will be prompted to enter the number of books ordered and next required to input the price of each book ordered.
Program Outputs
Once the student has keyed in the number of books and the prices of each book, the program then calculates the total price of all the books ordered by the student.
