LESSON 95 OF 414 · CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS - CHALLENGES

Employee of the Year V3 - Project in Rust

Practice

Three employees compete for the award. Use a chained if / else if / else to pick the most productive one and print their 15% bonus.

You start with:

    let name1 = "John Doe";
    let productivity1 = 83;
    let salary1 = 135000;
    let name2 = "Mary Jane";
    let productivity2 = 133;
    let salary2 = 335000;
    let name3 = "Bob Smith";
    let productivity3 = 97;
    let salary3 = 210000;

Build:

Mary Jane
Bonus: $50250

Rules:

  • The winner is whichever of the three employees has the highest productivity.
  • If two or more employees share the highest productivity, the one listed first wins.
  • The winner's bonus is 15% of their salary, rounded down to a whole number.
  • Print the winner's name on the first line, then "Bonus: $<amount>" on the second.

Declare let winner_name; let winner_salary; before the if, then use an if / else if / else chain to assign them, so both are still in scope for the prints. Employee 1 wins when its productivity is at least that of both others; if not, employee 2 wins when it is at least employee 3's; otherwise employee 3 wins.

Dividing two whole numbers (i32) drops the fraction, so winner_salary * 15 / 100 is already rounded down: let bonus = winner_salary * 15 / 100;

{} in the format string is replaced by the value: println!("Bonus: ${}", bonus);

    let name1 = "John Doe";
    let productivity1 = 83;
    let salary1 = 135000;
    let name2 = "Mary Jane";
    let productivity2 = 133;
    let salary2 = 335000;
    let name3 = "Bob Smith";
    let productivity3 = 97;
    let salary3 = 210000;

    let winner_name;
    let winner_salary;
    if productivity1 >= productivity2 && productivity1 >= productivity3 {
        winner_name = name1;
        winner_salary = salary1;
    } else if productivity2 >= productivity3 {
        winner_name = name2;
        winner_salary = salary2;
    } else {
        winner_name = name3;
        winner_salary = salary3;
    }
    let bonus = winner_salary * 15 / 100;
    println!("{}", winner_name);
    println!("Bonus: ${}", bonus);
