C# Code for a calculation
-
Hi Everyone, I'm learning C# and am stuck on writing code for a calculation. Here's the parameters: Calculate and display the price. The calculations will require price per hour. My project has the customer name input, item rented input x the # of hours rented = total cost. Pressing the calculate button will perform this function. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks jeff
Sounds like a homework assignment, so here are only some hints: Create a textbox for the price and a textbox for the # of hours (a
NumericUpDowncontrol may be better for the latter, no string-to-number conversion required there). Create a button clicked event handler for the calculate button and do the calculation there. You can convert from the textbox string to decimal/integer via Decimal.TryParse[^] or Int32.TryParse[^] method, respectively. regards -

So... the schools have started again... ;) The calculation part of the code is very easy:
price = pricePerHour * hours;So, is that really where your problem lies?Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

His post down further in the thread really make me suspicious, it sounds like a problem I use in my class, and the funny thing is, my class doesn't start for a few more weeks.

Maybe. My class doesn't start for a few more weeks, and the OP's problem sounds very similar to one of my homework problems I give out, and this particular won't be assigned until the middle of October. Sorry, no credit given to the OP for two reasons: 1. I don't accept early work, 2. Wrong language, not a C# class ;P

Yep. Like I just told Guffa, my very similar problem is usually assigned about mid-October for the Fall term. People may look to the assistance of my former students are going to be in for a rude surprise. After about 2 years of teaching this class, I am doing a complete overhaul of it :-\

P. S. //Calculate the total cost of charter by number of hours X selected yacht x the rate per hour. The above is the calculation I was thing of using. I'm having trouble coding it. Jeff
I think Guffa very kindly answered (solved) your coding dilemma. But but here it is stated another way...
HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
I HAS A rate ITZ NUMBAR
I HAS A hours ITZ NUMBAR
LOL ducketsOwed R rate TIEMZ hours
VISIBLE ducketsOwed
KTHXBYESeriously though, are you having trouble setting up the project or what? I don't get it, your questions is solved, but you restated the question... what more do you need?

*********** U need to Learn Do your homework by yoursellf ********** double total = Convert.ToDouble(TextBox_item_rented.Text) * Convert.ToDouble(TextBox_cost_per_hour.Text); TextBox_total=total.ToString(); MessageBox.Show("Total Cost for customer "+ TextBox_cust_name.Text + "= " + total); *********** U need to Learn Do your homework by yoursellf ********** :sigh: :zzz: :zzz: :zzz:
