below:
Class name Tel call
Data members/Instance variables
Phone no. Phone number
Name Name of consumer
N Number of calls made
Amt Bill amount
Member functions/Methods
Tel call(...) Parameterized constructor to assign values to data members
Void compute() To calculate the phone bill amount based on the slabs given below:
N u m b e r Rate
of calls
1-100 Rs. 500/- rental charge only
101-200 Rs. 1.00/- per call rental charge
201-300 Rs. 1.20/- per call rental charge
above 300 Rs. 1.50/- per call rental charge
void dispdata() To display the details in the specified format
The calculations need to be done as per the slabs.
Specify the class Tel call giving the details of the constructor, void compute( ) and void dispdata( ).
In the main() function, create an object of type Telcall and display the phone bill in the following format:
Phone Number XXXXXXXXX
Name XXX
Total calls XXXXX
Amount XXXX
