Mr Wu has been going to work every day by taxi for many years. However, the taxi fare has been increasing rather quickly in recent years. Therefore, he is considering driving to work instead. One of the costs for driving is the parking fee. The parking rates of the car park at Mr Wu's workplace are as shown as below:
Weekdays:
$2 per hour between 4am and 7am
$1.20 per half hour between 7am and 6pm
$5 per entry after 6pm
Saturdays:
$2.50 per hour between 4am and 7am
$1.50 per half hour between 7am and 6pm
$7 per entry after 6pm
Sunday: Flat rate of $5 per entry
For all days, there is a grace period of 10 minutes.
The car park opens between 4am and 12 midnight daily. We assume vehicles are magically ejected at midnight.
There is a 10% surcharge on weekdays and a 20% surcharge on Saturdays for vehicles who park for more than 10 hours. There are no surcharges on Sunday.
There is an additional fee of $3 for exiting after 10pm on any day.
Your task is to write a function compute_fee(day, time_in, time_out) that computes the parking fee, where day is an integer between 1 and 7, with 7 representing Sunday, while time_in and time_out are integer values in a 24-hour format - e.g. 700 for 7am and 2359 for 11:59pm. Assume all input is valid.
Below are a few examples of how the fee is calculated:
Example 1: Tuesday, 4:29am to 7:50am.
• 4:29am to 7am is charged as 3 1-hour slots: $2.00 * 3 = $6.00
• 7am to 7:50am is charged as 2 30-minute slots: $1.20 * 2 = $2.40
• Total fee = $6.00 + $2.40 = $8.40
Example 2: Saturday, 7:01am to 7:49pm.
• 7:01am to 6pm is charged as 22 30-minute slots: $1.50 * 22 = $33.00
• 6pm to 7:49pm is charged as one entry: $7.00
• 20% Surcharge for parking more than 10 hours: ($33.00 + $7.00) * 20% = $8.00
• Total fee = $33.00 + $7.00 + $8.00 = $48.00
Example 3: Sunday, 3pm to 10:01pm.
• 3pm to 10:01pm is charged as one entry: $5.00
• Additional fee for exiting after 10pm: $3.00
• Total fee = $5.00 + $3.00 = $8.00
Example 4: Thursday, 11:49pm to 11:59pm.
• Grace period
• Total fee = $0.00
Example 5: Monday, 12pm to 10:01pm.
• 12pm to 6pm is charged as 12 30-minute slots: $1.20 * 12 = $14.40
• 6pm to 10:01pm is charged as one entry: $5.00
• 10% Surcharge for parking more than 10 hours: ($14.40 + $5.00) * 10% = $1.94
• Additional fee for exiting after 10pm: $3.00
• Total fee = $14.40 + $5.00 + $1.94 + $3.00 = $24.34
