Hello everyone, i'm having a huge problem with a simplistic program.

I'm very new to C# and i have to create a program that "allows a user to enter a trip distance. The output is the ticket price."

Distance ticket price
0-99 25.00
100-299 40.00
300-499 55.00
500 and farther 70.00

i've used arrays before but im not sure about the distance ranges (ex. 0-99, 100-299)

any help is very much appreciated

Using boolean operators, this could be implemented very simply. (Pseudocode below)

if distance >= 0 AND distance < 100

    ticket price = 25.00

else if distance >= 100 AND distance < 300

    ticket price = 40.00

else if ...

...

Just continue with the pattern above until all ranges are tested. The last condition won't need a boolean AND, because you're only testing for values greater than or equal to 500.
