LESSON 91 OF 415 · CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS - CHALLENGES

Employee of the Year V3 - Project in Swift

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 var winnerName: String; var winnerSalary: Int 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 (Int) drops the fraction, so winnerSalary * 15 / 100 is already rounded down: let bonus = winnerSalary * 15 / 100

Convert the number with String(...) (or use \(...) inside the text): print("Bonus: $" + String(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

        var winnerName: String
        var winnerSalary: Int
        if productivity1 >= productivity2 && productivity1 >= productivity3 {
            winnerName = name1
            winnerSalary = salary1
        } else if productivity2 >= productivity3 {
            winnerName = name2
            winnerSalary = salary2
        } else {
            winnerName = name3
            winnerSalary = salary3
        }
        let bonus = winnerSalary * 15 / 100
        print(winnerName)
        print("Bonus: $" + String(bonus))
