C++ program start up
I am new to C++ and I have exercise to make code as described below:
Write a program that reads in the cost of an order (possibly a decimal like 48.99) and the shipping method as a number (1 for Drone, 2 for 2-Day and 3 for Standard) and prints out the total cost of the order + shipping.
If the user enters a negative cost or a different shipping method, print out "Bad Input". If they pick Drone with an order under $100 you should just print "Not available".
The instructors example looks like this:
Enter the cost of your order: 800
Enter your shipping method: 1
Total is $880
Cost of Order -Shipping Charge
Under $100 -Not available
At least $100 but less than $500 -$50
$500 or more -10% of the cost of order
If I knew where to start it would be helpful. I can't get my mind around the if statments and how to put in the 3 different shipping methods as numbers.
