i cant figure this out, here is what im suppose to do
Create a text file containing the pertinent information for the following table(not the identification row):
Employee No. Department Pay Rate Exempt Hours Worked
101 41 8.11 Y 49
722 32 7.22 N 40
1273 23 5.43 Y 39
2584 14 6.74 N 45
Write a C++ program to read the employee file as parallel arrays of employee data using arrays of int, doubles and chars.. Assume that the number of employee records you have to deal with is 4 and create a payroll output file with headers as shown in the following list. The output file is to contain the following data:
a. Employee number (left justified)
b. Department
c. Pay Rate
d. Exempt
e. Hours Worked
f. Base pay (pay rate * hours worked)
g. Overtime pay
h. Total pay
Overtime pay is calculated only for nonexempt employees. An employee is exempt if ‘Y’ appears in the exempt column. Overtime is paid at time-and-a-half for all hours worked over 40. If an exempt employee works over 40 hours, that employee is only paid for 40 hours of work.
MY CODE:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
#define cls system("cls")
#define pause system("pause")
const int CHARS_ON_LINE = 80;
const int SIZE = 4; // for number of employees
void displayInfo(int employee_num, int department, double payrate, char exempt, int hours, double basepay, double overtime, double total);
double calculatepay(double basepay, double total, double overtime, double payrate);
void main()
{
double payrate;
double basepay;
double overtime;
double total;
int employee_num;
int department;
int hours;
char exempt = ' ';
ifstream inFile;
ofstream outFile;
calculatepay(payrate, basepay, overtime, total);
displayInfo(employee_num, department, payrate, exempt, hours, basepay, overtime, total);
}
double calculatepay(double basepay, double total, double overtime, double payrate)
{
string inFileName,
outFileName;
int employee_num, // employee number
department, // department
hours; // hours worked
char exempt; // for exempt
ifstream fin("infileLab10.txt");
fin >> employee_num;
fin >> department;
fin >> payrate;
fin >> exempt;
fin >> hours;
basepay = payrate * hours;
overtime = payrate + 1 / 2;
return total = (overtime * hours > 40) + basepay;
}
void displayInfo(int employee_num, int department, double payrate, char exempt, int hours, double basepay, double overtime, double total)
{
ofstream fout("outfileLab10.txt");
fout << setw(15) << "Employee Number" << setw(15) << "Department" << setw(15) << "Pay Rate"
<< setw(15) << "Exempt" << setw(15) << "Hours Worked" << setw(15) << "Base Pay"
<< setw(15) << "Overtime Pay" << setw(15) << "Total Pay" << endl;
fout << left << setw(15) << employee_num << right;
fout << setw(15) << department;
fout << setw(15) << payrate;
fout << setw(15) << exempt;
fout << setw(15) << hours;
fout << setw(15) << basepay;
fout << setw(15) << overtime;
fout << setw(15) << total;
fout << fixed << setprecision(2);
}
