Summary :

You create a PHP file that will run from your local host (XAMPP) to exercise a While loop. In this exercise you are going to use a while-loop to figure out how much tip ( in percentage) you can afford. See screenshot below.

Instructions:

Create a new document using VS Code or your text editor and save this file as: yourlastname-MealsPHP.php. This file includes both HTML and PHP statements.
Type the declaration, element, header information, and element. Use Calculating Restaurant Check as the content of the element and tags.
In the Title type your full name
Between the and

1. Create a new document in your text edit or using VS code save it as: yourlastname-MealPHP.php. This file contains both HTML and PHP statements.

2. Type the declaration, element, header information, and

element.

3. In the Title type: "Calculating Restaurant Check as the content of the

element. 4. Add the standard PHP delimiters to the document body: <?php ... ?> 5. Type PHP codes to display: "Start the Calculation" and add three blank lines below this text. 6. Imagine you have certain amount of money (cast_on_hand) and order a meal (meal). You compute cost of meal (cost) by adding meal and tip (tip_percent). 7. Declare the following variables, use proper PHP syntax for declaring variables: <ul> <li>cash_on_hand and assign some value to it.</li> <li>meal, and assign some value to it.</li> <li>tip_percent, and assign some value to it.</li> <li>cost, to be computed.</li> </ul> 8. Calculate cost with a tip and store it in a variable named: cost. Cost formula is: meal + meal * (tip_percent / 100). 9. Make sure that cash is a little more than meal price. For example assign $20 for cash_on_hand and $15 for meal and 15% to tip_percent. 10. Create a while-loop that runs as long as cost is less than cash_on_hand and displays the following in each run : I can afford a tip of 15% , for Total Cost: (34.5) such that 15% is coming from variable tip_percent and 34.5 from cost. When cost is greater than cash-on-hand, then loop stops. In each run loop displays this message and adds 1% to tip_percent until meal cost exceeds your cash_on_hand. 11 Save the document as yourlastname-MealPHP.php. <img style="height:637px;width:407px;" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/si.experts.images/answers/2024/09/66d9b10e88fe8_67066d9b10e0de37.jpg" alt="image text in transcribed"> 0 localhost/HW6ph Start the calculations I can afford a tip of 15%, for Total Cost: (34.5) I can afford a tip of 16%, for Total Cost: (34.8) I can afford a tip of 17%, for Total Cost: (35.1) I can afford a tip of 18%, for Total Cost: (35.4) I can afford a tip of 19%, for Total Cost: (35.7) I can afford a tip of 20%, for Total Cost: (36) I can afford a tip of 21%, for Total Cost: (36.3) I can afford a tip of 22%, for Total Cost: (36.6) I can afford a tip of 23%, for Total Cost: (36.9) I can afford a tip of 24%, for Total Cost: (37.2) I can afford a tip of 25%, for Total Cost: (37.5) I can afford a tip of 26%, for Total Cost: (37.8) I can afford a tip of 27%, for Total Cost: (38.1) I can afford a tip of 28%, for Total Cost: (38.4) I can afford a tip of 29%, for Total Cost: (38.7) I can afford a tip of 30%, for Total Cost: (39) I can afford a tip of 31%, for Total Cost: (39.3) I can afford a tip of 32%, for Total Cost: (39.6) I can afford a tip of 33%, for Total Cost: (39.9) This is end of the calculation
