hi guys. i need help with my dev C++ programming. i'm suppose to create a program which calculates the overtime of workers.here's the question. i really need help on this question. thank you.

A hypermarket pays its employees on work-hours basis and by category,A1-RM5,A2-RM7,M1-RM10,M2-RM15,BB-RM20. the hypermarket pays "straight-time" for the first 44 hours worked by each employee and pays "time-and-a-half" for all hours worked in excess of 44 hours for only category A1,A2,and M1. no extra pay for the other categories. the total work hours for each employee cannot exceed 60 hours per week. the program should request employee's name, identification card number, the number of hours employees' work last week and his category. your program should display all related information about the employee including employee's gross pay, overtime pay and net salary.

and here is my coding that i have tried.

Your source compiles using Orwell's Dev-C++ 5.11 fork (C console project), so what are the problems you are having?

In your if statements you are using the assignment (=) operators, not the equality (==) operator.

if (cat ='A')
should be
if (cat =='A')

I personally "flip" the expression so the compiler will catch any typing/logic mistakes and report an error.
if ('A' == cat)

Line 25 (totalhrs >= 44 && totalhrs <= 60); has no effect.

well.. the calculations after category A1 is not working at all..it uses A1 calculations to calculate for others too and also the name that we enter is not showing out in the output..it ony shows the 1st letter of the name input..

NAME: jenny
NIC: 123
CATEGORY: a
TOTAL HOURS: 46

SYARIKAT SMART STORE HYPERMARKET SDN. BHD.
=========================================================

NAME: j
NIC: 123
CATEGORY: A
TOTAL HOURS: 46
GROSS PAY: 220
OVERTIME PAY: 5
NET PAY: 225

CONTINUE? <Y/N>:

tiz is how it shows in the output

You are defining the name variable as single char char name, not as a char array char name[].

If if you had created a char array you would be still getting a single character for the name. You are using the printf format specifier to print a single char %c.

If there a reason why this program has to be written in C? C++ strings are much easier to use.
