Case

• The Richter scale is a measurement of the strength of an earthquake. Every step in the scale, for

example from 6.0 to 7.0, signifies a tenfold increase in the strength of the quake. We can categorize

the scale into 5 categories: Category A (most structures fall), B (many buildings destroyed), C (many

buildings considerably damaged, some collapse), D (damage to poorly constructed buildings), and E

(no destruction of buildings). Write the program to categorize the Ritcher scale!
