Question

Description:

Answer 1

Answer:

The programming language is not stated (I'll answer using C++)

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int convert(float miles)

{

   return miles * 5280;

}

int main() {

   cout<<"Console:"<<endl;

   cout<<"Hike Calculator"<<endl;

   float miles;

   char response;

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

   while(response == 'y')

   {

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

   }

   cout<<"Bye!";

   return 0;

}

Explanation:

Here, I'll explain some difficult lines (one after the other)

The italicized represents the function that returns the number of feet

int convert(float miles)

{

   return miles * 5280;

}

The main method starts here

int main() {

The next two lines gives an info about the program

   cout<<"Console:"<<endl;

   cout<<"Hike Calculator"<<endl;

   float miles;

   char response;

This line prompts user for number of miles

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

This line calls the function that converts miles to feet and prints the feet equivalent of miles

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

This line prompts user for another conversion

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

This is an iteration that repeats its execution as long as user continue input y as response

   while(response == 'y')

   {

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

   }

   cout<<"Bye!";
