That's what I was trying for, but I guess from another email I was about 95% out to lunch on this one. I guess we'll see what happens, but I don't think I have time to figure it out right and get it done in time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBride" <abletec@xxxxxxxxx>

John: Consider making more functions. The only thing in the main function, really, should be calls to other functions, e.g., the main function consolidates the program calls to its functions. I would arrange it, for example, such that 1 function gets input, the other function returns the pay, & a last prints the output. Thus, my main function would look like: getInput PayCalc PrintOutput That's not written in stone, but a function should perform a single task, & if u consider each of those as a single task, then u kind of have an easy way of dividing your program into modules.

I've been working on this longenough this morning, and last night and before I finish and find out Iscrewed up royally, I'm wondering if some one can look this over and let me know how I've done so far, what I might want to do different and since I amgetting stuck a little, maybe a little advice on how to do the rest of itthough, if I am very close, or good here I think I know where I'm going with the rest of it. this is just what I get from the class notes and I'm getting to the point where I'm not comfortable with what I am doing though I'm about90% sure I started off right.
