Question

COMP 1120 Project One - Part One Assigned: September 18, 2019 Due! September 30, 2019 * Part Two will be due on October 2 There may be one or two questions on Test 2 that pertain to this project. e number of words in a ce of fiction less than A certain science fiction magazine pays its authors based on the number of word story and on the author's "level". (Generally, a short story is a piece of fiction les 500 words in length, a novelette contains between 7500 and 17500 words, and a no contains between 17500 and 40000 words.)" This magazine pays the following rates to C-level authors (those not yet fully established) Length (in words) < 7500 7500 to 8000 to 17,500 to > 19,000 8000 17,500 19,000 Payment rate (per $0.08 $600 $0.075 $1313 $0.07 word unless noted) fixed fixed For example, for a 10,000 word novelette, a new author would be paid 10.000 $0.075 $750.00 Note: A B-level author an established writer but not a rock star) will be paid 1.25 times the C-level rate and an A-level author (a rock star) will be paid 1.75 times the C-level rate. 1) Write a complete function that will accept an integer value representing a length in words and a single character (one of the following: 'A', 'B', 'C', 'a', 'b', 'c) representing the "level" of the author, and will calculate and return the amount to be paid an author of the given level for a story of the given length (whew!). NOTE: Place the definition of this function below (after) the definition of the main() function. This will mean you need to properly place a prototype for this function in your program. 2) Write a program that will: a) Prompt the user for the length of a story and the "level" of the author of the story. b) Calculate the amount to be paid to the author. Use the function from #1). c) Display the length of the story and the amount to be paid. All output should be properly labeled and be in a neat form. Some other sample results (the third is a B-level author and the last one is an A-level author): Length of Story (words) Amount to be paid 20,000 $1400.00 18,000 $1313.00 6,000 $ 600.00 12,500 $1640.63 Sample output (for the final story shown above): Length of Story (words): 12500 Amount Due Author : $1640.63 (continued on next page)
