Chapter 5 ■ Programs with Repetition Logic
In order to show you another way to read a string, we will assume that the data is stored in the
file as follows:
Maggie May 50 12.00
Akira Kanda 40 15.00
Richard Singh 48 20.00
Jamie Barath 30 18.00
END
We use the “first name” END as the end-of-data marker.
Regular pay, overtime pay, and net pay will be calculated as described in Section 4.4.1. The
employee name, hours worked, rate of pay, regular pay, overtime pay, and net pay are printed
under a suitable heading. In addition, we will write the program to do the following:
• Count how many employees are processed.
• Calculate the total wage bill (total net pay for all employees).
• Determine which employee earned the highest pay and how much. We will
ignore the possibility of a tie.
For the sample data, the output should look like this:
Name Hours Rate Regular Overtime Net
Maggie May 50.0 12.00 480.00 180.00 660.00
Akira Kanda 40.0 15.00 600.00 0.00 600.00
Richard Singh 48.0 20.00 800.00 240.00 1040.00
Jamie Barath 30.0 18.00 540.00 0.00 540.00
Number of employees: 4
Total wage bill: $2840.00
Richard Singh earned the most pay of $1040.00
An outline of the algorithm for reading the data is as follows:
read firstName
while firstName is not "END" do
read lastName, hours, rate
do the calculations
print results for this employee
read firstName
endwhile
We will use the specification %s in fscanf for reading the names. Suppose we have declared
firstName as
char firstName[20];
