An orange farm usually package their fruits in a box of 10 o

An orange farm usually package their fruits in a box of 10 oranges before shipping them out to their customers. However, the shipping company charges extra if the boxes weighs 1.5kg or more. Therefore, write a Matlab script that is able to help the farm sort out the boxes that are 1 5kg or heavier so that they can be repackaged with lighter oranges. The program should continuously request for the user to input the weight of each orange and when the total weight for a box of oranges have been entered, a message will be displayed to determine if the box is overweight or not. This should be done for 20 boxes of oranges.

Solution

MATLAB code:

clear all

close all

clc

for i=1:20

twt=0;

for j=1:10

wt_ip= input(\'Enter orange weight : \');

twt=twt+wt_ip;

end

if twt>1.5

disp(\'Box is overweight\')

else

disp(\'Box is not a overweight\')

end

end

sample outputs:

Enter orange weight : 0.1
Enter orange weight : 0.1
Enter orange weight : 0.2
Enter orange weight : 0.3
Enter orange weight : 0.1
Enter orange weight : 0.4
Enter orange weight : 0.1
