Question

in Python

The program will compute and display information for a company which rents vehicles to

its customers. For a specified customer, the program will compute and display the

amount of money charged for that customer’s vehicle rental.

1. The program will repeatedly prompt the user to enter the following four items for a

given customer (in the specified order):

a. The customer's classification code (a character)

b. The number of days the vehicle was rented (a number)

c. The vehicle's odometer reading at the start of the rental period (a number)

d. The vehicle's odometer reading at the end of the rental period (a number)

It will then process that customer information and display the results. It will halt when the

user enters “Q”(or “q”) instead of a classification code.

2. The program will compute the amount of money that the customer will be billed, based

on the customer’s classification code, number of days in the rental period, and number of

miles driven.The program will recognize both upper case and lower case letters for the

classification codes. Code 'B' (budget)

base charge: $40.00 for each day

mileage charge: $0.25 for each mile driven

Code 'D' (daily)

base charge: $60.00 for each day

mileage charge: no charge if the average number of miles driven per day is 100

miles or less; otherwise, $0.25 for each mile driven above the 100 mile per day limit.

The amount billed to the customer is the sum of the base charge and the mileage charge.

3. For each customer, the program will display a summary with the following information:

a. The customer's classification code

b. The number of days the vehicle was rented

c. The vehicle's odometer reading at the start of the rental period

d. The vehicle's odometer reading at the end of the rental period

e. The number of miles driven during the rental period

f. The amount of money billed to the customer for the rental period

4. When an invalid classification code is detected, the program will display an error

message.

Note:

Use the built in input function to take input from the user. For example, the following code

will take a string from the terminal and assign that to the variable name.

name = input("Please input your name: ")
