The Gardner Theater, a community playhouse, needs to determine the lowest-cost production budget for an upcoming show. Specifically, they have to determine which set pieces to construct and which, if any, set pieces to rent from another local theater at a predetermined fee. However, the organization has only two weeks to fully construct the set before the play goes into technical rehearsals. The theater has two part-time carpenters who work up to 12 hours a week, each at $10 an hour. Additionally, the theater has a part-time scenic artist who can work 15 hours per week to paint the set and props as needed at a rate of $15 per hour. The set design requires 20 flats (walls), two hanging drops with painted scenery, and three large wooden tables (props). The number of hours required for each piece for carpentry and painting is shown below:

2. Now it is July 30. One day later: The Major League Soccer Franchise of the city had just clinched a spot in the playoffs and the first game in the elimination round will be against a team from California, the L. A. Galaxy. They have the world’s most famous superstar, David Beckham, in its lineup on August 21. All the hotels in the city are filling up fast and phones with reservation inquiries are ringing off the hook at the Sport.

Hotel Occupancy

C++ Only

Program Description

Write a program that calculates the occupancy rate for a hotel. The program should read its data from a file named "hotel.dat". The first line of this file will be a single integer specifying the number of floors in the hotel. Each of the remaining (N) lines will have two integers; the number of rooms on that floor and the number of occupied rooms on that floor.

Your program should display the following:

• How many rooms the hotel has,
• How many rooms are occupied,
• How many are unoccupied, and
• The percentage of rooms that are occupied.

Notes

1. Your program should be named hotel.cc.
2. You can build this program initially to read from the keyboard, get that working, and then modify the program to read from the file.
3. You will need to create the "hotel.dat" data file.
