Use something similar to the below. Make sure the float comparisons are properly rounded and compared etc. {{{ #define MIN_PERCENT 0.01 #define MAX_INCREASE 75000 // Assumes 0 <= percent <= 1 (1 for 100%) float CalculateIncrease(float salary, float percent) { // Cap minimum. if (percent < MIN_PERCENT) { percent = MIN_PERCENT; } float increase = salary*percent; // Cap maximum if (increase > MAX_INCREASE){ increase = MAX_INCREASE; } return increase; } }} - Anonymous March 05, 2009 | Flag Reply

double MIN_PERCENT = 0.01;
double MAX_INCREASE=75000.;
String[] CATEGORY={"A", "B", "C"};

double updatedSalary(double salary, double percent, String category)
{
    double updatedSal;
    double increase;
    // Cap minimum.
    if (percent < MIN_PERCENT) 
       percent = MIN_PERCENT;
    // calculate increase based on category
    if (category.equals("A"))
       increase = 3.*salary*percent;
    else if (category.equals("B"))
       increase = 2.*salary*percent;
    else if (category.equals("C"))
       increase = salary*percent;

    // Cap maximum
    if (increase > MAX_INCREASE)
       increase = MAX_INCREASE;
    updatedSal = salary+increase;
    return updatedSal;
}
