This code primarily performs formatted printing in Java using the System.out.printf method. Here's a detailed explanation of what this code does:

1. Creation of a Calendar Object:

   Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
   

   • A Calendar object is created and initialized to the current date and time.

2. Printing the Header with Date and Time:

   System.out.printf(“Hitesh R. Pulimi- %tc\n”, cal);
   

   • It prints the name "Hitesh R. Pulimi-" followed by the current date and time in a formatted manner (%tc). The %tc format specifier prints the complete date and time formatted for the default locale.

3. Printing Quoted Text:

   System.out.printf(“\”Receipt\” lab”);
   

   • This prints the string "Receipt" lab. The \” is an escape sequence to include quotation marks inside a string.

4. Printing the Store Name:

   System.out.printf(“\t\t Fish Store\n”);
   

   • Prints "Fish Store" with two tabs (\t\t) at the beginning to align it towards the center. The \n moves to the next line.

5. Printing a Header for Item and Amount:

   System.out.printf(“Item\t\t\tAmount”);
   

   • Prints "Item" and "Amount" with tabs (\t) for spacing between them to align the columns.

6. Printing Item Details:

   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n”,”Red Fish”,84.99);
   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n”,”Yellow Fish”,5.91);
   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n\n”,”Green Fish”,4.99);
   

   • Prints the item name (e.g., "Red Fish") and amount (e.g., $84.99) in a formatted way:
     • %s is a placeholder for a string (e.g., the item name).
     • %6.2f is a placeholder for a floating-point value, formatted to 2 decimal places, and a total width of 6 characters including the decimal point.
   • Each item's name is printed left-aligned, followed by the corresponding price.
   • An extra \n moves the cursor to a new line for spacing after "Green Fish."

7. Calculating and Printing Subtotal:

   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n”,”Subtotal”,84.99+5.91+4.99);
   

   • Calculates the subtotal by adding the prices of the items (84.99 + 5.91 + 4.99) and prints it with the label "Subtotal".

8. Printing Tax Amount:

   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n”,”tax”,7.91);
   

   • Prints the tax amount $7.91 with the label "tax".

9. Calculating and Printing Total:

   System.out.printf(“%s\t\t$%6.2f\n”,”Total”,84.99+5.91+4.99+7.91);
   

   • Calculates the total by summing up the subtotal and tax (84.99 + 5.91 + 4.99 + 7.91) and prints it with the label "Total".

Summary of Output:

The code produces a receipt-like formatted output, showing the following:

1. A header with the user's name and the current date/time.
2. The store's name ("Fish Store").
3. A tabular list of items and their prices.
4. Subtotal, tax, and the total amount due.

The output on the console would look something like this:

Hitesh R. Pulimi- Sat Oct 28 14:45:30 DST 2023
"Receipt" lab		Fish Store
Item			Amount
Red Fish		$  84.99
Yellow Fish		$   5.91
Green Fish		$   4.99

Subtotal		$  95.89
tax			$   7.91
Total			$ 103.80

(Assuming the current date is Sat Oct 28 14:45:30 DST 2023, and the amounts are as specified.)
