Question

To do: Write a program names BarChartWhile that ask’s the user for today’s sales (to the closest $100) at five stores. The program should display a bar chart comparing each store’s sales. Create each bar in the chart by displaying a row of asterisks. Each asterisk should represent $100 of sales. You must use a while loop to display the chart. Actually – you will need five while loops, one for each store. Those of you with some programming background, you CANNOT use arrays, etc. You must use separate variables for each store.

To do: Repeat the program above but name it BarChartFor and use five for loops. The output will look identical.

Java language.

Sample output:

Today's sales for store 1 (rounded to the nearest 100)

300

Today's sales for store 2 (rounded to the nearest 100)

700

Today's sales for store 3 (rounded to the nearest 100)

1500

Today's sales for store 4 (rounded to the nearest 100)

2100

Today's sales for store 5 (rounded to the nearest 100)

200
