Question

A customer in a store is purchasing seven items. Develop pseudo code for a program that asks for the item purchased, and price of each item. It then displays the subtotal of the sale, the amount of city, country, and state sales tax, and the total.

Answer 1

$items = array['item 1', 'item2', 'item3', 'item4', 'item5', ' item6', 'item7']; <-- Items
$ = i;
while($items >= $i){ <-- Loop through the items
     connect_db(); <-- Connect to database where the info is stored;
     run_query("SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE item_name=$item[i]"); <-- run the query to find info
$subtotal = array[0] + array[1] + array[2] + array[3] + array[4] + array[5] + array[6]; <-- Adding total price of each item
$total += $row['price'] * $city_tax; <-- calculating city sales tax
$total += $row['price'] * $state_tax; <-- calculating city sales tax

echo $row['name'];
echo $subtotal;
echo $total;
}
