Question

Pennies for pay

Susan is hired for a job, and her employer agrees to pay her every day. Her employer also agrees that Susan’s salary is 1 penny the first day, 2 pennies the second day, 4 pennies the third day, continuing to double each day. Create an app that allows the user to enter the number of days that Susan will work and calculates the total amount of pay she will receive over that period of time.

I don't know why it doesn't work, can you help me check the code below?

( Please don't copy data from another source, I just want to know why my code is not working and how to make it work)

when btnCalculate initialize local NumberOfDays to Click do C initialize local Count to initialize local PenniesCount to 1 1 initialize local TotalPennies to 0 in set NumberOfDays to txtNumberogDays Text while test get NumberOfDays get Count do set TotalPennies to get PenniesCount get TotalPennies + set PenniesCount to 2 get PenniesCount Text set IblTotal get TotalPennies to

And the picture below is my design screen included (btnCalculate and txtNumberofDays)

Answer 1

Actually the code run infinite times because you didn't increment the count value.if you didn't increment count value it always 1.

1 always <=given positive input.so it iterate infinite times.so you initialize count =count+1

if count ==positive input it will terminate and gives the output.

so set as count==count+1

PennisCount=2*PenniCount below write this code

count=count+1

it will work fine if you have any doubt comment below..
