char firstInitial, middleInitial;
int number_of_pencils;
int number_of_notebooks;
float pencils = 0.23;
float notebooks = 2.89;
float lunchbox = 4.99;
//The information for the first child
firstInitial = 'J';
middleInitial = 'R';
number_of_pencils = 7;
number_of_notebooks= 4;
printf("%c%c needs %d pencils, %d notebooks, and 1 lunchbox\n",
firstInitial, middleInitial, number_of_pencils,
number_of_notebooks);
printf("The total cost is $%.2f\n\n", number_of_pencils*pencils
+ number_of_notebooks*notebooks + lunchbox);
//The information for the second child
firstInitial = 'A';
middleInitial = 'J';
number_of_pencils = 10;
number_of_notebooks= 3;
printf("%c%c needs %d pencils, %d notebooks, and 1 lunchbox\n",
