problem statement
string - Ad Hoc
As you can see in the problem description, some characters with their costs are given to you, a passage comes after that, and you have to count each character in that passage and find out how much money publisher must pay for a text, characters that are not given a specific cost have to be considered with cost 0.
After I read and count occurrence of each character, I find the cost of the passage with these two lines of code :
for(int i = 0; i < 400; i ++)
cent += occurrence[i] * cost[i];
and print output in this manner :
int dol = cent / 100;
cent %= 100;
cout << dol << "." << (cent < 10 ? "0": "") << cent << "$" << endl;
I describe my solution or give some hints about the solution for algorithmic problems used in ICPC or online sites for programming contests.
