Dorm and Meal Plan Calculator
Suppose a university has the following dormitories, offered at these prices:
• Allen Hall $2,500 per semester
• Pike Hall $2,200 per semester
• Farthing Hall $2,100 per semester
• University Suites $2,800 per semester
Let us also assume the university also offers these meal plans:
• 7 meals per week $1,560 per semester
• 14 meals per week $2,095 per semester
• Unlimited meals $2,500 per semester
Create an application with a module and two forms. The module holds defined constants for the various dormitories and meal plans. The startup form holds the names of the dormitories, a set of buttons, a status bar, and labels that display semester charges, as shown in Figure 7-76. A second form holds the list of meal plans, and selection buttons, shown in Figure 7-77. When the user selects a dormitory and meal plan, the application should show the total charges for the semester on the startup form.
Note: Use code statements in the Form Load event handler for each form to initialize the list boxes with the names of the dormitories or meal plans, along with their prices. This must be done at runtime, to allow future changes in the values of price constants to be displayed correctly in the list boxes.
