Post: A real-life situation would be something like getting air fresheners at a carwash. I noticed this the other day as I was at the carwash, when you put a dollar in and press a certain key you are able to get the air fresher of your choice just by pressing a certain key. For example: A1= new car smell A2= wild cherry A3= black ice A4= summer breeze Another real-life situation would be a vending machine when put in money a press a certain number and letter you are able to pinpoint which snack you want. I noticed this when was at work on my break although when I pressed a number and a letter it gave me something completely different from what I wanted that's beside the point. For example: B1= Airheads B2= Hot Cheetos B3= Hershey Bar B5= Lifesavers B6= Gum
