The tip is the money given as a gift for good service, to the person who serves you in a restaurant. In this project, a simple tip calculator is made which takes the billing amount, type of service, and the number of persons as input. As per the three inputs, it generates a tip for the serving person.
Approach:
To find out the tip we will take input from the user: Bill Amount (it is the amount of the total bill, we are taking this into amount variable), for the type of service we are using a drop-down menu having quality as the options in percentage (like good, bad, excellent, etc.), lastly, we are taking the number of persons as input (it will help to divide the tip equally among all the person). A per the inputs from the user, we are calculating the tip and then printing it using the console.log() function.
Total is basically amount multiplied by type of service divided by a number of persons.
Using HTML we are giving desired structure, option for the input, and submit button. With the help of CSS, we are beautifying our structure by giving colors and desired font, etc.
In the JavaScript section, we are processing the taken input and after calculating, the respective output is printed.
Example:
- HTML Code: In this section, we will create the basic stricture of the project
- CSS Code: In this section, we will apply styling to the Tip Calculator
- JavaScript Code: In this section, we will apply logics and mathematical formulas to calculate the tip

Javascript
window.onload = () => //the function called when Calculate button is clicked. { /*calling a function calculateTip which will calculate the tip for the bill.*/ document.querySelector('#calculate').onclick = calculateTip; } function calculateTip() { /*assign values of ID : amount, person and service to variables for further calculations.*/ let amount = document.querySelector('#amount').value; let persons = document.querySelector('#persons').value; let service = document.querySelector('#services').value; console.log(service); /*if statement will work when user presses calculate without entering values. */ //so will display an alert box and return. if (amount === '' && service === 'Select') { alert("Please enter valid values"); return; } //now we are checking number of persons if (persons === '1') //if there is only one person then we need not to display each. document.querySelector('#each').style.display = 'none'; else //if there are more than one person we will display each. document.querySelector('#each').style.display = 'block'; /*calculating the tip by multiplying total-bill and type of service; then dividing it by number of persons.*/ //fixing the total amount upto 2 digits of decimal let total = (amount * service) / persons; total = total.toFixed(2); //finally displaying the tip value document.querySelector('.tip').style.display = 'block'; document.querySelector('#total').innerHTML = total; } |
