PLT Exercises

1. Write a program to accept principle, rate of interest and time. Calculate simple interest and
display the same

2. Write a program to accept two numbers. Display the two numbers. Swap the two numbers
and display them again.

value and store them in two variables. Display the same.

5. Write a program to accept a student’s name and scores in three subject. Display the
1st, 2nd average and total. Display whether the student has secured 1st , 2nd , pass class or
has failed.
1st class is for a score of 60 and above,
2nd class is for a score of 50 and above, while pass class is for a score of 35 and above. If the
score is less than 35, then the student fails.

6. Write a program to find the largest and second largest of 3 numbers

7. Write a program to accept name, empId, basic, special allowances, percentage of bonus and
monthly tax saving investments. The gross monthly salary is basic + special allowances.
Compute the annual salary. The gross annual salary also includes the bonus. Compute the
annual net salary, by deducting taxes as suggested.
a. Income upto 2.5 lakhs – exempted
b. Income from 2.5 lakhs to 5 lakhs – 5%
c. Income from 5 lakhs to 10 lakhs – 20%
d. Income from 10 lakhs onwards – 30%

However, if there is any tax saving investment, then there is further exemption of upto 1.5
lakhs annually. This would mean that by having tax saving investments of about 1.5 lakhs, an
income of 4 lakhs is non-taxable. Display the annual gross, annual net and tax payable.

8. A vendor offers software services to a client. Each resource is billed at some dollar rate per
hour. The total cost of the project for the client is therefore, the total number of hours
contributed by all the vendor resources * the dollar rate / hour. There are however some
variants.
a. The vendor might have purchased hardware/infrastructure or software licenses
needed for the project.
b. The vendor might have utilized external consultants for the project.
c. The client looks at the vendor as a one stop solution and hence external resources
employed by the vendor need to be paid by the vendor.
d. It might however be possible that the vendor’s hardware and software purchases
are borne by the client. In this case, the client pays the vendor 30% of the
hardware/infrastructure costs. In case of software licenses, the client pays the
vendor 50% of the cost, if they are commonly available and used, or 100% if the
software is infrequently used or is proprietary client technology.
e. The external consultants employed by the vendor will come at a dollar rate per
hour.
f. Accept the suitable inputs and display the profits / loss realized by the vendor.

13. Write a program to find the sum of all the prime numbers in the range n to m. Display each
prime number and the final sum.

14. Write a program to find the factorial of a given number. 0! is always 1. Factorial of a
negative number is not possible.

15. Write a program to find whether a given number is a finonacci number or not.
