The Assignment
Eggs are packaged in cartons holding 1 dozen eggs and then boxes that store 5 cartons each. Given a number of eggs by the user, write a program to determine how many cartons and boxes the packager will need. Your if-else logic should consider whether a partial carton and/or box is needed. If so, add one (1) to your totals.
With your partner, begin by creating a new C++ file called Eggs.cpp
in the C++ compiler. Next, copy and paste this starter code into the file:
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { /* Declare a variable to store the number of eggs (a short) since we must declare a variable before storing to it... */ // Input the number of eggs... // Declare two integer variables, each initialized to 0... int num_cartons = 0, num_boxes = 0; // Compute and store the number of cartons needed... // Compute and store the number of boxes needed... // Output the results.... cout << "You need " << num_boxes << " boxes and " << num_cartons << " cartons" << endl; // return "success" to the operating system (OS)... return 0; }
Modify the code to complete the assignment. When you have completed the assignment, demonstrate it for the instructor.
