13. Shipping Charges
The Fast Freight Shipping Company charges the following rates:

Weight of Package                             Rate per Pound
2 pounds or less                                  $1.50
Over 2 pounds but not more than 6 pounds          $3.00
Over 6 pounds but not more than 10 pounds         $4.00
Over 10 pounds                                    $4.75
Write a program that asks the user to enter the weight of a package 
and then displays the shipping charges.
