Question

JAVA PROBLEM

Using the data provided, create print-out that will print a letter per customer (total of 1000 customers).

Every letter should be 66 lines in total

Each letter cannot exceed 80 columns.

Print the letter for only customer who has more than $5 balance.

It should print nicely.

You will need to calculate new amount due if not paid in 10 day. You need to calculate the new date (system date + 10 days).

Letter date is the system run date.

Deliverable:

Project folder as a zip file. Your output (ColLetter_yourInitials.txt) should be created at your project folder)

       for(int x = 0; x < c-1; x++)
       {
           float amount = Float.parseFloat(amt[0]);
           if(amount > 5)
           {
               System.out.println(from + data + amt[x] + data1 + now.get(Calendar.MONTH) + "/" + now.get(Calendar.DATE) + "/" +now.get(Calendar.YEAR) + data2 + (amount += (amount)*.10) + data3 + data4);
               System.out.println("__________________________________________________________________________________________________");
           }
       }//End of for

   //Main method
   public static void main(String ss[])
   {
       CustomerLetter cl = new CustomerLetter();
       cl.readFile();
       cl.output();
   }//End of main
