I am having a problem getting the execution screen to stay in order for me to view the program. Can someone tell me what is wrong with my program please?

/*
A parking garage charges a $2.00 miniumum fee to pack for up to three hours.
The garage charges an additional $0.50 per hour for each hour or part thereof
in excess of three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24-hour period is $10.00.
Assume that no car parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that
calculates and prints the parking charges for each of three customers who parked
their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for each customer.
Your program should print the results in a neat tubular format and should calculate
and print the total of yesterday’s receipts. The program should A parking garage charges
