            <title>Assignment problems</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2812240</link>
            <description>any help would be amazing.&lt;br /&gt;this are the two questions i do not know how to answer.&lt;br /&gt;Question 2 (Branching)							[30 marks]&lt;br /&gt;Write a program that calculates and prints the bill for a cellular telephone company. The company offers tyoe types of services: regular and premium, Its rate vary, depending on the type of service. The rates are computed as follows:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regular Service:	&amp;#036;10.00 plus first 50 minutes are free. Charges for over 50 minutes are &amp;#036;0.20 per minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Premium Service:	&amp;#036;25.00 plus:&lt;br /&gt;a)	For calls made from 6:00 pm, the first 75 minutes are free; charges for over 75 minutes are &amp;#036;0.10 per minute.&lt;br /&gt;b)	For calls made from 6:00 pm to 6:00 am, the first 100 minutes are free; charges for over 100 minutes are &amp;#036;0.05 per minute.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your program should prompt the user to enter an account number, a service code (type char), and the number of minutes the service was used.  A service code of r or R means regular service; a service code of p or P means premium service. Treat any other character as an error. Your program should output the account number, type of service, number of minutes the telephone service was used, and the amount due from the user.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the premium service, the customer may be using the service during the day and night. Therefore, to calculate the bill, you must ask the user to input the number of minutes the services was used during the day and the number of minutes the service was used during the night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question 3 (Function)							[40 marks]&lt;br /&gt;During the tax season, every Friday, J&amp;amp;J accounting firm provides assistance to people who prepare their own tax returns. Their charges are as follows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a)	 If a person has low income (&amp;lt;¼ 25,000) and the consulting time is less than or equal to 30 minutes, there are no charges; otherwise, the service charges are 40% of the regular hourly rate for the time over 30 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;b)	For others, if the consulting time is less than or equal to 20 minutes, there are no service charges; otherwise, service charges are 70% of the regular hourly rate for the time over 20 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(For example, suppose that a person has low income and spent 1 hour and 15 minutes, and the hourly rate is &amp;#036;70.00. Then the billing amount is 70.00  X  0.40  X  (45 / 60) = &amp;#036;21.00.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Write a program that prompts the user to enter the hourly rate, the total consulting time, and whether the person has low income. The program should output the billing amount. Your program must contain a function that takes as input the hourly rate, the total consulting time, and a value indicating whether the person has low income. The function should return the billing amount. Your program may prompt the user to enter the consulting time in minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question 2 i have tried till here but cant seem to work after that.&lt;!--c1--&gt;&lt;div class='codetop'&gt;CODE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class='codemain'&gt;&lt;!--ec1--&gt;#include&amp;#60;iostream&amp;#62;&lt;br /&gt;#include&amp;#60;string&amp;#62;&lt;br /&gt;using namespace std;&lt;br /&gt;int main&amp;#40;&amp;#41;&lt;br /&gt;{&lt;br /&gt;double accountNum, minutes;&lt;br /&gt;double chargeRegular = 10.00;&lt;br /&gt;double chargePremium = 25.00;&lt;br /&gt;double counter = 0;&lt;br /&gt;int p, r, time;&lt;br /&gt;char serviceCode;&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;Welcome to KDU cellular services&amp;#33;&amp;#34; &amp;#60;&amp;#60; endl &amp;#60;&amp;#60; endl;&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;Please enter your account/student number&amp;#58; &amp;#34;;&lt;br /&gt;cin &amp;#62;&amp;#62; accountNum;&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; endl &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;Now enter service package, R or P?&amp;#58; &amp;#34;;&lt;br /&gt;cin &amp;#62;&amp;#62; serviceCode;&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; endl &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;Please enter the amount of time &amp;#40;in minutes&amp;#41; for usage&amp;#58; &amp;#34;;&lt;br /&gt;cin &amp;#62;&amp;#62; minutes;&lt;br /&gt;if &amp;#40;tolower&amp;#40;serviceCode&amp;#41; == r&amp;#41;&lt;br /&gt;{&lt;br /&gt;if &amp;#40;minutes &amp;#62; 50&amp;#41;&lt;br /&gt;{&lt;br /&gt;counter = &amp;#40;minutes - 50&amp;#41;;&lt;br /&gt;chargeRegular += &amp;#40;counter * 0.2&amp;#41;;&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;Amount have to pay is&amp;#58; &amp;#34; &amp;#60;&amp;#60; chargeRegular &amp;#60;&amp;#60; endl;&lt;br /&gt;}&lt;br /&gt;/*else if &amp;#40;tolower&amp;#40;serviceCode&amp;#41; == p&amp;#41;&lt;br /&gt;{&lt;br /&gt;cout &amp;#60;&amp;#60; &amp;#34;What time is it now?

            <title>Ingress</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2593544</link>
            <description>&lt;a href='http://www.ingress.com/' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.ingress.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google&amp;#39;s augmented reality game Ingress released in closed beta&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While every gaming genre is being well explored in the domain of smartphone games, the one genre the platform seems ripe for - augmented reality gaming - seems to be underdeveloped. Google seems to be attempting to remedy this with its new augmented reality game, titled Ingress. While the game is in a closed beta right now, you can apply for a beta invite at the Ingress website. Once you are part of the closed beta, you can download the app from Google Play. Google has also released a trailer for the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ingress seems to be going for a dystopian cyberpunk theme with an ancient war between hidden factions thrown in for good measure. The game will have you join one of the two factions - the Resistance or the Enlightened - and go to various landmarks to complete objectives. The game also seems to be completely online with a social aspect, much like a massively multiplayer online game. The game allows you to track the progress of other players from around the world and communicate with them using an Intelligence app. According to the description of the game, players will need to work together to complete objectives. Cooperation across neighbourhoods, cities, and countries is required to achieve victory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the story of the game according to its description: &amp;quot;A mysterious energy has been unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe. The origin and purpose of this force is unknown, but some researchers believe it is influencing the way we think. We must control it or it will control us.&amp;quot; Players will play as either the Enlightened or the Resistance. The Enlightened want to embrace the power that can be obtained from the energy. The Resistance, on the other hand, aim to defend and protect what&amp;#39;s left of our humanity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google&amp;#39;s attempt at an augmented reality game&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The game also has an alternate reality game (ARG) part to it in the form of the website for the Niantic Project. The website contains subtle hints and clues, along with cryptic runes that hint to what will happen in the game next.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The story of the game seems very similar to that of games such as the Assassin&amp;#39;s Creed series with its secret war between the Assassins and the Templar. Ingress also has allusions to philosophical questions from Deus Ex: Human Revolution, such as whether it is good to harness the power from the mysterious energy or if it&amp;#39;s better to cling to the last vestiges of humanity that we have remaining.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gameplay-wise, some parallels could be drawn from Zombies, Run&amp;#33;, a game that aims to promote exercise by simulating a zombie apocalypse and giving you objectives to run to and complete before the zombie horde gets you. The game simulates a zombie horde by playing sounds through the phone’s earphones, along with a playlist of your songs.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;While Ingress is only available on Android in its closed beta, Google may release the game on other platforms, thus getting a true massively multiplayer augmented reality game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;source. &lt;a href='http://tech2.in.com/news/android/googles-augmented-reality-game-ingress-released-in-closed-beta/587292' target='_blank'&gt;http://tech2.in.com/news/android/googles-a...sed-beta/587292&lt;/a&gt;</description>
