| Problem 145 - Gondwanaland Telecom, Explanations |
It's a simulation problem.
Output is impossible to read, so check my additional ouput.
A call starting and finishing at the same time is a 24H call.
If you are in trouble with the multi-entry input, read my how to read input.
All charges are in dollars per minute of the call. Calls which straddle a rate boundary are charged according to the time spent in each section. Thus a call starting at 5:58 pm and terminating at 6:04 pm will be charged for 2 minutes at the day rate and for 4 minutes at the evening rate. Calls less than a minute are not recorded and no call may last more than 24 hours.
Write a program that reads call details and calculates the corresponding charges.
Input lines will consist of the charging step (upper case letter 'A'..'E'), the number called (a string of 7 digits and a hyphen in the approved format) and the start and end times of the call, all separated by exactly one blank. Times are recorded as hours and minutes in the 24 hour clock, separated by one blank and with two digits for each number. Input will be terminated by a line consisting of a single #.
Output will consist of the called number, the time in minutes the call spent in each of the charge categories, the charging step and the total cost in the format shown below.
A 183-5724 17 58 18 04 #
