A full-time student pays $8,000 per semester. It has been announced that the tuition will increase by 3 percent each year for the next three years. Write a program with a loop that displays the projected semester tuition amount for the next three years. Also, provide the option to the student to calculate the tuition for another three years using the same percent increase. Please remember, if the student decides to calculate the tuition for another three years the starting tuition will be calculated tuition value for the end of the 3-year period.
