Write a program that finds the discount percent based on a number of pounds you purchased, and calculates the total cost of candy for Halloween taking in account that in some cases the purchase is taxable, and in some cases not. TAX applied AFTER discount is taken.

The program reads the following input: number of pounds (integer), price per pound (float), tax (integer), and additional integer, tax_indicator, that could be only 1 or 0, where 1 indicates that purchase is TAXABLE, and 0 otherwise.
