Presentation of the Zoo Shipping Company
The ZOO Shipping Company’s dispatch service has developed a
package shipping system using
COMet . Each package must be
accompanied by a delivery slip.
Outgoing packages are routinely weighed and a light beam reads
the bar codes on each package. An operator responsible for
supervising the process enters the price per kilo.
Weighing the package makes it possible to calculate its shipping
price, and reading the bar code indicates its destination.
The information gathered is inserted into the shipping label (see
Page 2 - 3). This enables the company to keep a precise
reference number for each outgoing package.

Note
This is just an example, of course. In real life, the price of ship-
ping a package, which depends on its destination, would be
calculated by a database, not an operator.
