Employee Salaries
You are working for a medium sized construction company as an intern in
the Information Technology department. A director in the Human Resources
department recently asked the IT department to write a small program that will
help them do a salary comparison. The program needs to be able to enter the
name of the employee and their salary. Once the data is loaded the program
needs to find the average salary, the highest salary and the lowest salary.
The program needs to print out these values along with the names of the
employees that go along with the salary.
Your boss, who has great trust in you and your programming abilities,
has given this project to you. You, therefore, schedule a meeting with the HR
director asking for the program to clarify the program’s requirements. After
your meeting you have summarized the following:
The program needs to ask for how many employees and salaries the
program will be working with. The program needs to do some data validation on
this number to make sure it is a positive number.
The program needs to ask for the name of each employee along with their
salary. Since the name of the employee will be a string and the salary will be
a number, you decide to use two parallel arrays to store the data. The program
will need to do some data validation on the salary to make sure it is a number
and greater than 0 and less than $200,000.
The program will determine what the average salary is and print that
out to the user.
The program will determine what salary is the lowest and print that out
along with the name of the employee who has that salary figure.
The program will determine what salary is the highest and print that
out along with the name of the employee who has that salary figure.
Use the following test data to test your program.
Employee Name Salary
John $45,600 Average Salary: $63, 862.50
Sue $55,400 Highest Salary: $89,750
David $64,700 Lowest Salary: $45,600
Betty $89,750
