Algorithm updatewage

this algorithm reads payroll file and updates each cost of living wage employee by increasing it by 2.3% for all current employees

Pre nothing

Post For each employee, cost-of-living wage is increased by 2.3%

Return nothing

1. loop(not end of the file)

1. read an employee record
2. set newLivingWage to livingWage+(livingWage*2.3/100)
3. update livingWage with newLivingWage in the record
4. save back the updated record to the file

2. end loop

end updatewage

• The above algorithm,reads payroll file line by line.
• Each line represents an employee payroll record.
• It takes the current living wage from the record and calculates the new living wage by increasing it by 2.3%.
• Then updates the living wage with new living wage in the record
