The objective of this assignment is to learn Java arrays. Write a Java console application for the following problem:

Use a one-dimensional array to solve the following problem: A company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople receive $200 per week plus 9% of their gross sales for that week. For example, a salesperson who grosses $5000 in sales in a week receives $200 plus 9% of $5000, or a total of $650. Write an application (using an array of counters) that determines how many of the salespeople earned salaries in each of the following ranges (assume that each salesperson's salary is truncated to an integer amount):

  • $200-299
  • $300-399
  • $400-499
  • $500-599
  • $600-699
  • $700-799
  • $800-899
  • $900-999
  • $1000 and over

Summarize the results in tabular format. Allow the user to enter a sales amount on the command line and exit with a negative sentinal value.
