Need Help with C++ calculate hr/rt/wk/mo/gross pay

[NateE]

Been in class for two weeks. I am not sure what to do next. I think I need a for loop. Can anyone help me out if that is what I need and how I would do it? C++ console application that asks the user to enter the hourly wage and number of hours worked for each week in a 4-week pay period. Create a custom function with appropriate input parameters and return type that calculates the total gross pay based on the values entered by the user. Use suitable loops for the user input and the processing of data entered by the user. The program should print out the gross pay for the pay period for the employee.



#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

double PayRate, HoursWorked, GrossPay, OTPay;

cout << "Input hourly wage rate..";
cin >> PayRate;
cout << endl;
cout << "Input hours worked this week..";
cin >> HoursWorked;
cout << endl;


if( HoursWorked > 40)
{

OTPay = HoursWorked *1.5* PayRate;
GrossPay = OTPay - (HoursWorked * PayRate);
cout <<"Employees gross pay for this week is" << GrossPay<< endl;
}

else if (HoursWorked < = 40)
{

GrossPay = HoursWorked * PayRate;
cout <<"Employees gross pay for this week is" << GrossPay <<endl;

Please use code tags. http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/jEywvCM9/
You can edit your post, highlight your code and click the <> button on the right.

if (HoursWorked > 40) {

    OTPay = HoursWorked * 1.5 * PayRate;
    GrossPay = OTPay - (HoursWorked * PayRate);
    cout << "Employees gross pay for this week is" << GrossPay << endl;
}

else if (HoursWorked < = 40) {

    GrossPay = HoursWorked * PayRate;
    cout << "Employees gross pay for this week is" << GrossPay << endl;
}

You can easily turn this into a function.
Also, your OTPay calculation is wrong. You forgot to subtract 40 from HoursWorked, to get how many hours they worked overtime.
Here's some boilerplate code for the function:

double CalcGrossPay( double PayRate, double HoursWorked )
{
    const double FULLTIME_HRS = 40.0;

    // check for valid input
    // PayRate and HoursWorked must be > 0

    double GrossPay = 0.0;
    if( HoursWorked > FULLTIME_HRS ) {

    }
    else if( HoursWorked <= FULLTIME_HRS ) {

    }

    return GrossPay;
}
