Write an algorithm to input number of passengers travelling, Data Structure & Algorithms

Assignment Help:

There are ten stations on a railway line:

Train travels in both directions (i.e. from 1 to 10 and then from 10 to 1).  Fare between each station is $2.

A passenger inputs the number of station at the start of his journey and number of the destination station and fare is calculated (for example if a passenger gets on a station 3 and his destination is station 9 his fare would be $12). Calculation should take into account the direction of train (for example a passenger getting on at station 7 and getting off at station 1 will also pay $12 and not a negative value!!).

A discount of 10% is given if 3 or more passengers are travelling together.

Write an algorithm by using a flowchart that:

  • input number of passengers travelling
  • input station number of the starting point and the station number of the destination
  • calculates the total fare taking into account the direction of travel
  • calculates any discount due
  • outputs the cost of tickets and prints tickets
