Employee of the Year V2 - Project in Scala

Practice

Two employees are up for the Employee of the Year award. Pick the more productive one and compute their 15% bonus.

You start with:

        val name1 = "John Doe"
        val productivity1 = 83
        val salary1 = 135000
        val name2 = "Mary Jane"
        val productivity2 = 133
        val salary2 = 335000

Build:

Mary Jane
Bonus: $50250

Rules:

The winner is whichever employee has the higher productivity.
If both have the same productivity, employee 1 (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 var winnerName: String = ""; var winnerSalary: Int = 0 before the if, then use if/else to assign them, so both are still in scope for the prints. A tie goes to employee 1, so compare with >=.

Dividing two whole numbers (Int) drops the fraction, so winnerSalary * 15 / 100 is already rounded down: val bonus = winnerSalary * 15 / 100

+ turns the Int into text: println("Bonus: $" + bonus)

        val name1 = "John Doe"
        val productivity1 = 83
        val salary1 = 135000
        val name2 = "Mary Jane"
        val productivity2 = 133
        val salary2 = 335000

        var winnerName: String = ""
        var winnerSalary: Int = 0
        if (productivity1 >= productivity2) {
            winnerName = name1
            winnerSalary = salary1
        } else {
            winnerName = name2
            winnerSalary = salary2
        }
        val bonus = winnerSalary * 15 / 100
        println(winnerName)
        println("Bonus: $" + bonus)
