3 Selection Problems
1. Write a program to find the ideal weight for a given height. The height must be given in centimeters between
140 cm and 240 cm. The ideal weight is the height minus 100. Before calculating the height check that the input
is valid?
2. ACE balloon shop sells balloons to customers at 10 fils each. If the customer buys 500 − 1000 balloons, the price
is 8 fils each. If the customer buys over 1000 balloons, the price is 6 fils each. Write a program that reads the
number of balloons to purchase and prints the amount of the bill?
3. A part time employee is paid BD. 2/000 per hour for the first 20 hours in a week. Additional hours are paid
BD. 2/500 per hour. In addition the company deducts 5% of the total weekly income for health insurance. Find
how much (s)he will be paid for any given number of hours?
4. Write a Java program that asks the user to input the weight of a canary bird in grams. The program should
determine and display a message the category of the bird’s weight according to the following table:
Weight Category
Between 50 Grams and 100 Grams (inclusive) Healthy
Under 50 but above 20 OR above 100 but under 130 Critical
All other ranges Endangered
5. A valid mobile number must consists of 8 digits. Write a program that reads a mobile number of type long and
verify that it’s exactly 8-digits. If the mobile number is not exactly 8 digits, then display an invalid message and
quit the program. Otherwise, your program will print the provider name according to the following table.
Provider Name Mobile number

Zain starts with 36
Batelco starts with 34 or 39
Viva starts with 33
Invalid otherwise
Hint: A number is exactly 8 digits if it is in the range 10000000 – 99999999.

6. Write a Java program that accepts a number followed by one space and then a letter. If the letter following the
number is ‘f’ or ‘F’, the program is to treat the number entered as a temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, convert
the number to the equivalent degrees Celsius, and print the result. If the letter following the number is ‘c’ or
‘C’, the program is to treat the number entered as a temperature in degrees Celsius, convert the number to the
equivalent degrees Fahrenheit, and print the result. If the letter is neither ‘f’, ‘F’, ‘c’, nor ‘C’, the program is to
print a message that the input is invalid and terminate. Note that C = 59 (F − 32).
7. Write a Java program that accepts a number followed by one space and then a single word. If the word following
the number is “mile” (ignore case), the program is to treat the number entered as a distance in miles, convert
the distance to kilometers. If the word following the number is “kilometer” (ignore case), the program is to
treat the number entered as a distance in kilometers, convert the distance to miles. Any other word the program
prints an invalid message. Note that one mile = 1.609 kilometers.
8. Scores attained by a student in two exams are to be entered to a computer (double numbers between 0.0 and
100.0, inclusive). An indication of Pass or Fail is printed out after the two marks are entered. The criteria for
passing are as follows:
– A student passes if both examinations are passed where the pass mark for an individual subject is 60.
– Additionally, a student may pass if only one subject is failed and the overall average is greater than or equal
to 60.
Write a Java program that prompts the user to input two exam marks and prints whether the student has passed
the course of failed.
9. Write a program to calculate and display the net price of a pasta based on two user inputs: type (C for chicken,
M for Meat, or V for Vegetable) and the number of appetizers. the net price of the pasta is the sum of the
following:
Dr. Ali Alsaffar 8
(a) Base price of the pasta is BD. 2.5 for chicken, BD. 2.5 for Meat, and BD. 2.1 for vegetables.
(b) Each appetizer is an additional BD. 1.2
Sample Input/Output
Enter pasta type: C for chicken, M for Meat, V for Vegetables:
C
Enter number of appetizers:
2
Net price is BD. 4.9
10. Write a program that reads two points on a line and another two points on another line. Your program should
determine whether these two lines are parallel or they intersect. If they intersect, you need further to state
whether they are perpendicular or not.
Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal, otherwise they intersect. Two intersected lines are perpendicular
if the product of their slopes is -1. Use the formula below to compute the slopes of the two lines.
y2 − y1
Slope of (x1 , y1 ) and (x2 , y2 ) is .
x2 − x1
11. Write a Java program that asks the user to enter two float numbers and a character which represents a code
for an arithmetic operation. The program performs arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication,
and division) on those two numbers depending on the value of code as follows:
Code Arithmetic Operation

A or a +
S or s -
M or m *
D or d /
You must use the switch statement to determine the arithmetic operation. If the code character that is entered
by the user is not one of those specified above, print a message saying “invalid code”.
12. A wholesale department is offering reduced prices on large orders of kitchen utensils. Write a Java program to
calculate and display the net price of an order based onthree user inputs: Price (float), Quantity (int) and
Payment method (char: A for cash in advance and D for cash on delivery.) The net price of the order is
calculated as follows:
Net price = (Price - Discount1 - Discount2) × Quantity
Discount1 = 4% of Price for Quantities of more than or equal to 1000, otherwise 2% of Price.
Discount2 = 5% of Price for cash in advance payment and no discount for cash on delivery.
Sample Input/Output
Enter Price, Quantity and Payment Method (A or D)
10 2500 A
The net price is 22750
13. The “Burger and Fries” restaurant is running a promotion in which delivery orders receive a discount while
dine-in orders receive no discount. Write a program that displays the discount percentage. The program should
first ask the user for two values: order type (delivery or dine-in), and the number of burgers to be ordered.
The program will then determine the discount as follows:
(a) Dine-in orders receive no discount.
(b) Delivery orders of up to two burgers receive 25% discount.
(c) Delivery orders of larger than two burgers receive a 40% discount.
The program will select from the above which discount percentage to display.
14. A triangle is a geometric shape in which no side can be larger than the sum of the other two sides. Write a Java
program that:
Dr. Ali Alsaffar 9
• Prompts the user to enter from the keyboard 3 values of type float and each value must be larger than zero:
x1, x2, and x3.
• Prints a message indicating ”invalid entered values” if any of the entered values is NOT larger than zero.
• Checks whether the entered values x1, x2, and x3 form a valid rectangle or not, and prints a proper message.
