# Salary Calculator

Welcome to Salary Calculator on Exercism's Java Track. If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check

out `HELP.md`. If you get stuck on the exercise, check out `HINTS.md`, but try and solve it without using those first :)

## Introduction

The _ternary operator_ is a lightweight, compact alternative for simple _if/else_ statements. Usually used in (but not

restricted to) return statements, it needs just one single line to make the decision, returning the left value if the

expression is `true` and the right value if `false`, as follows:

```java

boolean expr=0!=200;

// Ternary statement

        int value=expr?22:33;

// => 22

```

A lot of simple _if/else_ expressions can be simplified using _ternary operators_.

## Instructions

In this exercise, you'll be implementing rules for calculating the total salary of a employee in a month. The

International Siderurgy Company (ISC) needs help to calculate the salary for the employees, given that different factors

can alter the final wage value for each employee.

You have three tasks and you should use the ternary operator instead of if/else statements to implement them.

## 1. Determine the salary multiplier

Implement the `multiplierPerDaysSkipped` method that returns the salary multiplier based on the number of days the

employee skipped the job. A 15% penalty is applied if more than five days were skipped.

```java

int daysSkipped=3;

        multiplierPerDaysSkipped(daysSkipped);

// => 1

        daysSkipped=7;

        multiplierPerDaysSkipped(daysSkipped);

// => 0.85

```

## 2. Calculate the bonus for products sold

Implement the `multiplierPerProductsSold` and `bonusForProductSold` methods. The ISC pays ten monetary units for each

product sold, but if the employee sold more than twenty products, the multiplier is improved to

thirteen. `multiplierPerProductsSold` should decide which multiplier is applied and `bonusForProductSold` should return

the total bonus in monetary units.

```java

int productsSold=21;

        multiplierPerProductsSold(productsSold);

// => 13

        productsSold=5;

        bonusForProductSold(productsSold);

// => 50

```

## 3. Calculate the final salary for the employee

Implement the `finalSalary` method. It should be able to multiply the base salary of 1000.00 by the salary multiplier

and sum the bonus and return the result, but keep in mind that salaries should be capped at 2000.00;

```java

int daysSkipped=2;

        int productsSold=3;

        finalSalary(daysSkipped,productsSold);

// => 1030

```
