Write a program that computes and displays the charges for a patient’s hospital stay. First, the program should ask if the patient was admitted as an in-patient or an out-patient. If the patient was an in-patient the following data should be entered:
• The number of days spent in the hospital• The daily rate• Charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.)• Hospital medication charges.If the patient was an out-patient the following data should be entered:• Charges for hospital services (lab tests, etc.)• Hospital medication charges.Use a single, separate function to validate that no input is less than zero. If it is, it should be re-entered before being returned.Once the required data has been input and validated, the program should use two overloaded functions to calculate the total charges. One of the functions should accept arguments for the in-patient data, while the other function accepts arguments for out- patient data. Both functions should return the total charges.
Question 3
Write a program that finds the equivalent series and parallel resistance for a collection of resistor
values. Your program should first read in the number of resistors and then compute the equivalent
series resistance for all resistors in the collection and the equivalent parallel resistance. For example,
if there are 3 resistors of 100, 200, and 300 Ohms, respectively, their equivalent series resistance is
100+200+300 and their equivalent parallel resistance is 1(1/100+1/200+1/300). Your program should
read each resistance value (R), add R to the series sum (RS) and add 1/R to the parallel sum (RP). After
loop exit, display RS and 1/RP.
3) Suppose an airline company has hired you to write a program for choosing the passengers
who should leave an overbooked flight. That means the airline has booked too many
passengers hoping some of them would not show up on time, but passengers are on board and
the aircraft doesn't have enough seats available for all these passengers. Your program chooses
the passenger who must leave the flight.
Passengers will be ranked based on the fare they have paid for booking (a double number
called fare), and their number of loyalty points (an integer number called points). Fare and
points are equally important, that means, in order to decide the position of each passenger in
the list, fare and points each have 50% importance. A Person with minimum priority
(combination of fare and points) will leave the flight.
You need to define a class called Passenger with these member variables:
passenger's name
• fare
points.
Passenger class must have 3 accessors, 3 mutators, a constructor with three…

- in C# Sometimes figuring letter grades is hard. Write a program that asks for, and reads from the user, a midterm exam grade and a final exam grade. Compute the average of those two grades and ouput a letter grade based on the scale shown below. CHALLENGE PROBLEM: One of my graduate school classes modified the above calculation. This professor said that the final grade would be determined by the simple average of the midterm and the final, however, if the student scored better on the final than they did on the midterm, the professor would weight the midterm exam at 25%, and the final exam at 75% when computing the final grade. Modify your code to use this professors modification in determining letter grade. Here is the grading scale:arrow_forwardWrite a program that computes and displays the charges for a patient's hospital stay.

- The Research team led by Bernadette Wolowitz at Cal-tech University has discovered a new Amoeba that grows in the order of a Fibonacci series every month. They are exhibiting this amoeba in a national. conference. They want to know the size of the amoeba at a particular time instant. If a particular month's index is given, write a program to display the amoeba's size. For Example, the size of the amoeba on month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,... will be 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8.... respectively.arrow_forwardf. A laborant in a laboratory does a number of antigen tests in one day. Write a program that simulates the number of antigen tests done in a day in a laboratory, displays the number of positives and negatives, and calculates the % of positives in one day. Your program needs to first generate a random number that will show the number of tests done in a day. One laboratory in a day cannot do more than 100 tests and less than 1 (they do at least one). Then for each of the tests, your program needs to generate a random number to show whether they are positive or negative. In order to write this program, you need to have the following three functions used by the main function: test result (void): This function generates a test result. It should randomly return either one or zero. 1 means positive test result and 0 means negative test result. float positive percentage (int,int) : This function takes the total number of positives and the total number of tests and returns the % of positives.…arrow_forwardA parking garage charges a $20.00 minimum fee to park for up to three hours. The garage charges an additional $5.00 per hour for each hour or part thereof in excess of three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24- hour period is $50.00. Assume that no car parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that calculates and printsthe parking charges for each of three customers who parked their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for each customer. Your program should print the results in a neat tabular format and should calculate and print the total of yesterday’s receipts. The program should use the function calculateCharges to determine the charge for each customer. Your outputs should appear in the following format: Car Hours Charge1 1.5 20.002 4.0…arrow_forward
- n this lab, you complete a prewritten Python program for a carpenter who creates personalized house signs. The program is supposed to compute the price of any sign a customer orders, based on the following facts: The charge for all signs is a minimum of $35.00. The first five letters or numbers are included in the minimum charge; there is a $4 charge for each additional character. If the sign is make of oak, add $20.00. No charge is added for pine. Black or white characters are included in the minimum charge; there is an additional $15 charge for gold-leaf lettering.arrow_forwardThe body mass index, BMI, is a measure used to determine if a person is overweight or not. We can calculate BMI from the weight of the person (in pounds) and the height (in inches) of the person.The formula for calculating BMI is:BMI = (weightInPounds * 703) divided by (heightInInches squared)In this problem, you will develop a Java program as a BMI calculator, that reads the user’s weight in pounds and height in inches, then calculates and displays the user’s body mass index BMI. Also, display the following information {from the US Department of Health} so the user can evaluate his/her BMI:BMI values:Underweight: less than 18.5Normal: between 18.5 and 24.9Overweight: between 25 and 29.9Obese: 30 or greaterarrow_forward1.Write program to iteratively compute Fibonacci numbers (named after an Italian mathematician).Some Fibonacci numbers are 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ... where the next number is found by summing the preceding two numbers.

Your program is not assured of receiving good data, thus if -2 is received as the number of numbers, then an error should be reported.arrow_forward
- A business that uses functions to calculate the weekly payment amounts of employees in a workplace.you are asked to write a program.The weekly payment amount of an employee depends on the following variables:- Number of hours worked - (minimum: 0, maximum: 60)- Hourly wage - (minimum: 0.00 TL, maximum: 30.00 TL)- Number of exemptions - (minimum: 0, maximum: 5)Using these 3 values,- Gross payment amount- General income taxLocal income tax- Social security amount- Net payment amountwill be calculated. →The maximum number of hours an employee can work before earning overtime pay is 40 hour. If the number of hours worked is less than or equal to 40, the gross payment amount will be equals the product of the wage. If the number of hours worked is more than 40, the gross payment amount is 40 times the hourly wage. plus 1.5 times the hourly rate for every hour over 40 →The general withholding tax is 55.77 TL for the weekly payment period.

Then Aladdin rubs the magic lamp and The Genie appears. Then he asked The Genie to make such a magical program. Unfortunately the Genie doesn't know programming and he wants your help to create that magical program. Genie will give you N as the day of the year and you have to print in which month that day is.
