Create a program that calculates change after a purchase. This will be a sequential algorithm, which is one of the simplest programming patterns. Your solution requires no branching or looping. Simply write a series of statements that will execute in order. The program should ask for a purchase price and the amount of cash tendered. It should then determine how many of the following denomininations should be returned: penny $0.01 nickel $0.05 dime $0.10 quarter $0.25 dollar $1.00 five $5.00 ten $10.00 twenty $20.00 Sample Run Price of the item: 21.37 Cash tendered: 50.00 Change: 28.63 Change Left: 2863 twenties: 1 tens: 0 fives: 1 ones: 3 quarters: 2 dimes: 1 nickles: 0 pennies: 3 Notes This program is easier if you consider the following ideas: You'll have to figure out how much of each amount is required You'll need to know what's left after you've accounted for each denomination Look up the modulus operator Modulus works better with integers It may be better to work in pennies rather than dollars
