Actual Parameters | Formal Parameters
1. These parameters appear in | 1. These parameters are declared in
function call statement. | function prototype.
2. These parameters stores the | 2. These parameters accepts values

SECTION B

(Answer any four questions from this Section.)

The answers to this Section should consist of the Programs in either Blue J environment or any
program environment with Java as the base.
Each program should be written using Variable description/Mnemonic codes so that the logic
of the program is clearly depicted.
FlowCharts and Algorithms are not required.

calwage( ) : To calculate wages according to conditions
display( ) : To print all the details of employee and total wages
Write a program to compute wages as per the following conditions:
Number of hours Rate
