bill = 1 + (200-1) .* rand(1,1)

bill = round(bill,2)

pay = input("How much cash did the customer give you?")

change1 = pay-bill

%calculates the change the customer should recieve after handing you a certain amount of money

function[efficient_change] = change(change1)

initial amounts of each coin

one_cent = 0;

two_cents = 0;

five_cents = 0;

ten_cents = 0;

twenty_cents = 0;

fifty_cents = 0;

one_eurocoin = 0;

two_eurocoin = 0;

five_eurobill = 0

ten_eurobill = 0;

twenty_eurobill = 0;

fifty_eurobill = 0;

onehundred_eurobill = 0;

fivehundred_eurobill = 0;

change = [one_cent two_cent five_cents ten_cents twenty_cents fifty_cents one_eurocoin two_eurocoin five_eurobill ten_eurobill twenty_eurobill fifty_eurobill onehundred_eurobill fivehundred_eurobill];

change =[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]

while money>0

while money>=0

makes an infinte loop

if money >= 0.01

money = money - 0.01;

one_cent = one_cent + 1;

elseif money >= 0.02

money = money - 0.02;

two_cents = two_cents + 1;

elseif money >= 0.05

money = money - 0.05;

five_cents = five_cents + 1;

elseif money >= 0.10

money = money - 0.10;

ten_cents = ten_cents +1;

elseif money >= 0.20

money = money - 0.20;

twenty_cents = twenty_cents + 1;

elseif money >= 0.50

money = money - 0.50;

fifty_cents = fifty_cents + 1;

elseif money >= 1.00

money = money - 1.00;

one_eurocoin = one_eurocoin +1;

end

coins = [one_cent two_cent five_cents ten_cents twenty_cents fifty_cents one_eurocoin two_eurocoin];

bills = [five_eurobill ten_eurobill twenty_eurobill fifty_eurobill onehundred_eurobill fivehundred_eurobill]

disp("Give them back" (bills,coins))

end

%supposed to calulate the most efficient change in coins and billls (but not sure what to do)

Hi Nicky,

It seems to me that you are trying to calculate the change to be given to a customer, randomly generating the bill amount to be paid and taking the cash given by them as input.

A general structure you can follow for your function to calculate change efficiently without the need to use a while loop is:

function[efficient_change]=change(money)
    %Initialise the amount of each coin or bill using a single array of
    %size equal to the number of different denominations
    efficient_change=zeros(1,n);
    %Here n is the number of different denominations
    
    %Calculate the number of bills of each denomination needed using math,
    %going from higher to lower value. An example for the five euro bill is
    efficient_change(4)=floor(money/5);
    money=money-efficient_change(4)*5;
    %Assuming the five euro bill is 4th in the efficient_change array
end
