Question: Write a program that reads from the user the amount of a restaurant bill as well as tax rate and then applies a random amount

Write a program that reads from the user the amount of a restaurant bill as well as tax rate and then applies a random amount of tip between 15% and 20% of the amount of the bill and displays the total amount due (including tax and tip). It then asks the user how many people in the party and divides the total amount by the number of people and displays the amount for each person in the group.

It then asks for and reads from the user a separator character, such as comma, space, tab or new line and displays the information using the separator character (see the example below):

Enter date: 9/30/2020

Enter restaurant name: Cheesecake Factory

Enter Street and city: Lake Ave, Pasadena

Enter bill amount: $100

Enter tax rate in %: 9

Total including tax of 9% and gratuity of 18% is $127.00.

Enter number of people to divide by: 4

Amount for each of 4 persons: $31.75

Enter a separator character: [TAB]

Bill amount: $100.00 Tax: $9.25 Tip: $18.00 Each portion: $31.75

Press any key to continue.

Second example:

Enter date: 9/29/2020

Enter restaurant name: Raffi's Place

Enter Street and city: Broadway Ave. Glendale

Enter bill amount: $200

Enter tax rate in %: 9

Total including tax of 9% and gratuity of 17% is $252.00.

Enter number of people to divide by: 1

Amount for each of 4 persons: $252.00

Enter a separator character: ,

Bill amount: $200.00,Tax: $18,Tip: $34.00,Each portion: $252.00

Press any key to continue.

In in the above example, if the user entered a new line instead of comma for the separator:

Bill amount: $200.00

Tax: $18

Tip: $34.00

Each portion: $228.00

Press any key to continue.
