// Exercise 3.3 Calculate a discounted price
// I interpreted this exercise as implying that the 10% applies to items 31 to 50
// and the 15% applies to items in excess of 50.
// That is, you don't get 15% discount on the whole price when you order 51 items.
// There is more than one way of doing this so different is not necessarily wrong.
