If this much is completed correctly, student will receive a B (80-89%)

Note: additions from basic are highlighted in yellow

Use a sentinel value loop.

Ask each user for:

• Type of vehicle (May use something other than strings, such as: 1 for economy, 2 for sedan, etc.) • Days
rented
• Full tank?

Detail calculations (output for each customer):

• Rental cost o Use integer / and % to determine weeks and days
• Fuel charge
• subtotal
• Taxes
• Total due

Rental Charges: 3 types of vehicle rentals

Vehicle Weekly rate Daily Rate

economy 158.80 31.76

sedan 201.60 40.32

SUV 237.80 47.56

Note:

• all weekly rates are 5 times the daily rates o You may use a constant, or just calculate this off the daily rental fee

• only whole day units to be considered (no hourly rates)

• charge the weekly rate for all whole weeks rented o for example: 14 days would be twice the weekly rate

• charge the daily rate for less than whole weeks o for example: 3 days would be three times the daily rate

• exceptions: o for periods more than a week but not a multiple of 7, charge the appropriate number at the
weekly rate, and then the appropriate number at the daily rate
  for example: 17 days should be charged 2 weekly rates, and also 3 daily rates o If daily
charge is for 6 days (regardless of the weeks) charge the weekly rate (which is lower than 6 times
the daily rate).
 Example: 13 days would be twice the weekly rate rather than the weekly rate + 6 daily
rates.
