You are now working for a department store, and your task is to create a point-of-sale application to allow customers to calculate the total cost of their sale, including taxes. Create a C++ program that does the following:

Calculates sales tax and total cost based on the type of purchased product using the following categories and tax percentages:

Category 1 - Clothing: 6%
Category 2 - Beauty products: 7%
Category 3 - Grocery: 3%
Category 4 - Gardening: 6%
Category 5 - School supplies: 3%
Category 6 - Tobacco products: 10%

Creates an array to store the numbers users input and uses the switch statement to calculate the sales tax and final cost based on the category of the purchased product
Prompts the user for category and price of the product
Calculates and displays the final cost

The generation we're in influences the idea greatly

Public static int mystery(int a[], int x) {     int c = 0;     for(int i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {        if (a[i] == x) c++;     } return c; }the method counts how many times an integer shows up in an integer array.the c variable is declared in the method to keep track of how many times the certain value has shown up.the for-loop loops through the entire array.the line    if (a[i] == x) c++;   checks if each element of the array is equal to the inputted integer to check. for each number in the array that is equal to the inputted integer x, the c variable will be incremented by 1. otherwise it will do nothing.then c is returned at the end of the loop.for example, if we have, in the main method with the mystery method coded in the class:     int arraytest[] = {2, 23, 23, 23, 3};     int testme = 23;     int count = mystery(arraytest, testme);     system.out.println(count); then the print out will be    3 because there are three 23s in that array.
