Task

back to top

A local sports club needs a membership fee calculator program to help their staff calculating the fees for their customers. The base annual fee may vary each year, so the exact discount amount can be different. Also, the club has a discount program that rewards group and loyalty memberships. The discount is calculated according to the following table:

Years	Group count
	1	2-4	5 and above
0	0%	10%	20%
1-3	10%	20%	30%
4 and above	20%	30%	40%

You are required to design and write an interactive program that prompts the user for base membership fee, the number of years and the number of group members, and displays the total membership fee before and after the discount. The program should allow the user to calculate the fees again and should continue until the user decides to quit.
Review the sample run below to clearly understand all requirements.

Enter the base membership fee, or zero to quit: 500 Enter the group count: 1 Enter the number of membership years: 2 Total fees before discount: 500 Discount: 50 Total fees after discount: $450 Enter the base membership fee, or zero to quit: 600 Enter the group count: 5 Enter the number of membership years: 2 Total fees before discount: $3000 Discount: $1000 Total fees after discount: $2000 Enter the base membership fee, or zero to quit: 0 Have a nice day!

Your submission must consist of following tasks:
Task 1
Draw a flowchart that presents the steps of the algorithm required to perform the task specified. You can draw the flowcharts with a pen/pencil on a piece of paper and scan it for submission, as long as the handwriting is clear and legible. However, it is strongly recommended to draw flowcharts using a drawing software. Here are links to some free drawing tools

• Draw.io 
• Lucidchart with an education account (register using your_csu_id@postoffice.csu.edu.au)
• yEd Graph Editor 
• Pencil Project 

Task 2
Implement your algorithm in Python. Comment on your code as necessary to explain it clearly.
Your submission will consist of:

1. Your algorithm through flowchart/s
2. Source code for your Python implementation
