In this section:

void readId (int& i,int& id, int MAX_SIZE, int& count)
{
id [MAX_SIZE]; ****
count = 0;
do {

cin>>id[i];
}

Hope people dont mind (Lerner and iamthwee), but I would like to start a new post for this assignment of mine. since I think the length of the other one is putting people off and the code is now a...

You asked if I had abandoned the idea of using parallel arrays.

I havent. I just am walking in the dark here and only getting to understand the whole concept of parallel arrays.

I hope this...

I really want to print out total for id xx is $....
Total for id YY is $....

I have amended code.
Is this looking closer to it?
I have made comments where I get errors. My declarations here and...

So my method wont work at all? That is a shame coz it seems so nice and logical to me. I'll start making changes....

[B]Lerner[B],
If I make changes to make station[count], then will it be ok to have code like this for that section:


void calculateTotalStation (int& MAX_SIZE, string& station, int& count,...

By the way, as per iamthwee, I changed the station declaration to be string type. (just now). Sorry its not included above and I'll avoid resubmitting to avoid clutter.

Geez,
thanks everyone.
I have been busy and come up with this. about 5 lines give me errors. So I have not been able to test the thing yet on the data. But I am excited about getting closer!

I...

Can someone suggest why this for loop is not working as it should?


#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{

Shame I cant delete old posts, because I have improved my code.

Please ignore the last 2 codes.

I will update soon.

or just [ at the start and ] at the end?

I'm sorry about that. I actually dont understand it fully.
I thought I did it, but obviously not.
Do I have to put a [] around everyline then?

OK,

This one is giving me the error:
16 "incompatible types in assignment of `std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >' to `std::string[100]' "

It look like it...

OK,
I've written this small section of code, as per last suggestion:


#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{

We havent studied classes yet. I was trying to figure out how to use substr and get.line to store strings into parallel arrays. (I know this in theory but cant find HOW to do it). So, I would like to...

Thanks for your help. I will begin working with this.
However, as stated previously I also have problem on how to insert those string into arrays.
The above code I wrote, only enters single...

By the way, I have used this code so far to read first line (ID, station, Nameand Address):

void readRecord (int& id, string& name, int& item, double& cost, int& qty, bool& more)
{
//int...

Hello,
I am stuck on an assignment I am working on. To be honest, the way I've structured it, it goes a bit beyond me.

Can someone kindly assist?

I have to get the following text:
...

Thanks for your time Dave.
I will comment out any "extra" stuff next time.

Hello,
I am new at this. I am trying to work with calling functions here. (Eventually I want to do some simple calcs on cost of going through a station...)but am getting an error on line marked with...

Although it wont make it bold, I just realised it still uses it. So library is called after all. Sorry to waste anyone's time.

Hello,
Can you please assist, why my Dev C++ program, wont see that I am trying to introduce the string library? Eaxmple:

#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
...
......

Let me know if you want me to post what I wrote in case you think I changed your stuff....

HEY,
just tried that.

BAD NEWS.
Order is no good:

Here is the output for 2 trials (one worked ok)

This program will ask you to enter 3 words.
It will then diplay them in order of word...

Hmmm, havent covered arrays yet... so basically trying to do this in really simplistic methods...

OK,
here are 2 examples, one is good, other not so good...
ATTEMPT1

This program will ask you to enter 3 words.
It will then diplay them in order of word length
(Shortest word first)

Hello,
thanks for reply, but no, doesnt seem to be dictionary related.
I just try dork words like wrr and wrrrrrr and wr, and just get it to compare and try to organise by length of string.

OK,
I am trying with this method. (you are the second person who has suggested- so I'b better try)...

But no, still weird error of putting them in varying orders....

#include <iostream>...

hello,
Thanks to previous help which has gotten me this far.
However, my lovely program, although looks great in theory doesnt do what its supposed to do. When I type in 3 words, it doesnt put them...

Hello,
I am one of those new assignment people, BUT I have tried to resolve this for a while now. Cant find much on google or other C++ sites.

I am trying to compare string lengths of 3 words and...
