Project using awk
Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

) Your mission is to create an awk file that will report employee name, state, gross pay, taxes, and netpay in a specific format. The input file has the following fields:Name
State
Pay Rate
Hours Worked
Overtime Hours

There is math involved. The pay rate is the hourly pay rate – different for each employee. Overtime
hours are paid at 1.5 times base rate ((OT Hours * 1.5) Pay Rate). Gross Pay = (Hours Worked +
(Overtime Hours * 1.5)) * Pay Rate. Taxes are computed at 8% (0.08) for State = MO and 7% for State
= KS. Net Pay = Gross Pay - Taxes
The input file is: /home/faculty/hbecker3/projects/p5/payroll
The output should look like the following:

Code:
Name             State
------------       -- 
Sam Smith       MO
Gross Pay:      $1690
Taxes:          $135.2
Net Pay:        $1554.8

(Formatting's a bit off but it needs to be aligned)

[/FONT]
Send me the link to your awk file (I will run it with the awk -f command).


2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:

None, just needs to be in an awk format.


3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
Code:
Awk BEGIN{
Getline payroll
{NR > 1}
Overtime = ($5 * 1.5) * $3;
GrossPay = ($4 + (Overtime * 1.5)) * $3;
Taxes = {MO|KS , .08|.07}
NetPay = GrossPay - Taxes

{print “Name\tState\n\-------\t--”}
{printf(%.2f\n) “$1\t$2\n\Gross Pay: \tGrossPay\nTaxes: \tTaxes\nNet Pay: \tNetPay} >
project5_q2

4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):

Johnson County Community College
Overland Park, KS
United States Of America
Hugo Becker
Course CIS 204 377
CRN: 12520

Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).

mdbfontsize

mdbFontSize(5)							 The m17n Library						    mdbFontSize(5)

NAME

       mdbFontSize - Font Size

DESCRIPTION

       In some case, a font contains incorrect information about its size (typically in the case of a hacked TrueType font), which results in a
       bad text layout when such a font is used in combination with the other fonts. To overcome this problem, the m17n library loads information
       about font-size adjustment from the m17n database by the tags <font, resize>. The data is loaded as a plist of this format.

       FONT-SIZE-ADJUSTMENT ::= PER-FONT *

       PER-FONT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC ADJUST-RATIO ')'

       FONT-SPEC ::=
	   '(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY
	      [ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]]
	    REGISTRY ')'

       ADJUST-RATIO ::= INTEGER

       FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font.
       See m17nFont for the meaning of each property.

       ADJUST-RATIO is an integer number specifying by percentage how much the font-size must be adjusted. For instance, this PER-FONT:

	   ((devanagari-cdac) 150)

       instructs the font handler of the m17n library to open a font of 1.5 times bigger than a requested size on opening a font whose registry is
       'devanagari-cdac'.
