Assignment Briefing:

The wonderful company,SpaceW, is a fictional company that makes its money by providing orbital services (aka, blasting rockets into space).They are ramping up spaceflights; to help them they need aninvoice program that can produce a one off invoice, a monthly invoice and a combined launch schedule for both launch sites (See example output).

The one-off invoice is similar to MT1 – but with client name and contact printed and including a launchpad fee if necessary (See example output below). The input for this option is to come from the keyboard and the program must not crash,no matter what rubbish is typed in.Obviously incorrect inputs should generate errors.

The Monthly invoice is a summation of all the launches for a given client in eachgiven month. The input for this option is to come from an input file with one line per launch, this file may have trailing blank lines.

The Monthly launch schedule is a summary listing of the launches for a given month and should include all launches for both particular launch sitesof that month for one customer. Extra points are to be awarded if the launch schedule is in date order (chronological order).

Space vehicles can be launched into twostandard orbits: LEO (low earth orbit), GTO (Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit). NESA tracking costs must be arranged for GTO orbits and shown on the invoice ($120,000).

You program needs to do the following (also see marking rubric below)

• Show a small menu with 4 options (console input)
o Produce aone-off invoice;
o Produce a monthly invoice;
o Produce a launch schedule; and
o Exit

• Students may code two additional options if they want
o Produce a sorted launch schedule; and
o Display a teddy bear (see marking rubric – safety net marks)

• If monthly invoice or launch schedule is selected it should process a file. The file is the monthly orders file for a given company. Several of these input files will be provided for testing and mandatory testing. (see format below)

Monthly-Orders format (input file) comma separated

Monthly order file (will be sorted in date order with more than one order in a day)

Below is the test file Oct2020.txt (which I supply for your testing)

18/10/20,ESAA,ORBL,GTO,3900000,KSC,N
20/10/20,ESAA,ORBL,LEO,2200000,KSC,Y

To display client name and contact on the invoice the students need to get these details from the table shown below. I provide a sample class for this, students do not need to use it (you could instead use a case statement or if statement(s) - it’s up to you).

Customers table

Exact spelling and punctuation in the address lines may vary in supplied code. Students can use either version.
