00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,600
Welcome to the section 8 challenge.

2
00:00:08,300 --> 00:00:11,600
For this program, I'm going to be using US dollars and cents,

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,200
but feel free to use whatever currency system you're familiar with that you want to use.

4
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,580
The idea here is you want to write a program that asks the user to enter the following.

5
00:00:20,780 --> 00:00:23,780
Ask them to enter an integer representing the number of cents.

6
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,780
You can assume that the number of cents entered is greater than or equal to zero.

7
00:00:28,180 --> 00:00:31,680
The program then displays how to provide that change to the user.

8
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,080
So in the U.S, we have one dollar is a hundred cents, a quarter is 25 cents,

9
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,480
a dime is 10 cents, a nickel is 5 cents, and a penny is one cent.

10
00:00:40,530 --> 00:00:44,030
So in this example suppose the user enters 92 cents.

11
00:00:44,580 --> 00:00:48,080
Your results will display that you can provide this change as follows.

12
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,280
No dollars.

13
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,480
Three quarters that would be 75 cents.

14
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:54,780
A dime, which would be another 10 cents that would give you 85.

15
00:00:54,780 --> 00:00:58,980
The nickel is 5., there's your 90. And the two pennies, there's your 92.

16
00:00:59,780 --> 00:01:02,080
As I said feel free to use your own currency system.

17
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:06,080
Also think of how you might want to solve this problem using the modulo operator.

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,580
When i give you my solution, I'll have two solutions.

19
00:01:08,580 --> 00:01:12,780
I'll have one without the modulo operator and one that uses the modulo operator,

20
00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:16,180
just so you can see two different ways to approach the problem. Quick hint,

21
00:01:16,180 --> 00:01:20,170
please don't just sit down and start coding this. Think about how you want to solve it.

22
00:01:20,170 --> 00:01:24,730
Write down some pseudocode that's English-like statements so you can get your thoughts straight.

23
00:01:24,730 --> 00:01:28,830
Figure out what your algorithm is or your steps that you want to use to solve the program.

24
00:01:28,830 --> 00:01:32,930
So have fun, make sure you test your program. Don't forget to test zero.

25
00:01:33,430 --> 00:01:35,430
Don't forget to test large numbers.

26
00:01:35,430 --> 00:01:39,930
And what I'm going to do is I'm going to do a couple of sample runs just so you can see how this works.

27
00:01:40,430 --> 00:01:42,790
So in this example it says enter an amount in cents.

28
00:01:42,790 --> 00:01:45,090
So let's say I type in 92 cents.

29
00:01:45,790 --> 00:01:49,590
And the program responds you can provide change for this as follows.

30
00:01:50,250 --> 00:01:53,550
Dollar zero, three quarters, one dime,

31
00:01:53,550 --> 00:01:56,550
one nickel, two pennies, just like we would expect.

32
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,400
As I mentioned don't forget to test with zero,

33
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:02,260
and we should get all zeros straight down the line.

34
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,720
And let's say we want to test

35
00:02:06,020 --> 00:02:09,820
this with 267 cents, that's 2 dollars and 67 cents.

36
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,720
In this case, we've got our two dollars, we've got two quarters. That gives us 50,

37
00:02:14,970 --> 00:02:16,770
the dime gives us 60,

38
00:02:16,770 --> 00:02:19,970
the nickel 65 and the two pennies 67.

39
00:02:19,970 --> 00:02:23,630
So there are your 267 cents. All right. So

40
00:02:23,630 --> 00:02:24,620
have a go at it.

41
00:02:24,620 --> 00:02:28,220
And when you come back, go to the solutions section. I'll go over my solution.

42
00:02:28,820 --> 00:02:29,420
Good luck.
