To revise the banking program so that it runs continuously for any number of accounts, we need to modify the existing code to incorporate a looping mechanism. The loop should execute continuously while the balance entered is not negative, and it should perform the calculation of the fee and prompt the user for the balance for the next account.
One approach could be to use a while loop that continues to iterate as long as the balance entered is greater than or equal to 0. Within the while loop, we can perform the calculation of the fee and prompt the user for the balance for the next account. After the calculation of the fee and prompt for the next balance, the program should retrieve the new balance entered by the user and update the loop condition accordingly.
To ensure the program runs continuously for any number of accounts, we need to make sure that the loop continues to execute until a balance less than 0 is entered by the user. This can be achieved by using a conditional statement within the while loop that checks if the balance entered is less than 0. If the balance is less than 0, the program can break out of the while loop and proceed to the end-of-job module.
In the end-of-job module, the program can perform any necessary cleanup tasks, such as printing the final results or saving the data to a file. Once the end-of-job module has executed, the program can end.
In conclusion, by modifying the existing code to incorporate a looping mechanism and performing the necessary calculations and prompts within the loop, we can revise the banking program so that it runs continuously for any number of accounts. The end-of-job module can then execute after a balance less than 0 is entered, bringing the program to a clean end.
Here is an example of what the revised banking program could look like in Python:
balance = float(input("Enter the balance for the first account: "))
while balance >= 0:
fee = 0.0
if balance < 1000:
fee = 10.0
else:
fee = 5.0
balance -= fee
print("The balance after fee: ", balance)
balance = float(input("Enter the balance for the next account: "))
print("End of Job")
In this example, the first balance is retrieved from the user, and the while loop is executed as long as the balance entered is greater than or equal to 0. Within the while loop, the fee calculation is performed, the balance is updated after the fee is deducted, and the user is prompted for the balance for the next account. The program continues to execute the while loop until a balance less than 0 is entered by the user, at which point the program breaks out of the loop and executes the end-of-job module.
Here is an example of what the revised banking program could look like in Java:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class BankProgram {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
double balance = 0.0;
System.out.print("Enter the balance for the first account: ");
balance = sc.nextDouble();
while (balance >= 0) {
double fee = 0.0;
if (balance < 1000) {
fee = 10.0;
} else {
fee = 5.0;
}
balance -= fee;
System.out.println("The balance after fee: " + balance);
System.out.print("Enter the balance for the next account: ");
balance = sc.nextDouble();
}
System.out.println("End of Job");
}
}
In this example, the first balance is retrieved from the user using a Scanner object, and the while loop is executed as long as the balance entered is greater than or equal to 0. Within the while loop, the fee calculation is performed, the balance is updated after the fee is deducted, and the user is prompted for the balance for the next account. The program continues to execute the while loop until a balance less than 0 is entered by the user, at which point the program breaks out of the loop and executes the end-of-job module.
