*Instructions:
Write a class named TestScores.
The class constructor should accept an array of test scores as its argument.
The class should have a method that returns the average of the test scores.
If any test score in the array is negative or greater than 100, the class should throw an IllegalArgumentException.
Demonstrate the class in a program.

Thank you very much,Ezzara. l will leave a message for the smart one iamthwee maybe you should look for a different line of work. That is what I'm doing.I am 51 years old equipment operator that suffered a brain anuerisym and stroke, leaving me with partial use of my left hand and confined to a wheelchair(you know paralized)i I try not to share my condition with everyone, but people like you just bring out the best in me. By the way I'm ttrying to learn this online as a new way to support my family. Have a nice day you smart-ass!

I seem to really be lost. I have included the instructions for this problem, for you clarity only. I'm not asking you to do the work.I really want to learn java. I have read this complete chapter Three times now and seem to not be getting through my thick skull what I should add to this code from the second file (shown below).If you could show me the syntax for calling the setter/getters and how to implement the first if statement. I think i could finish the project.

A software company sells a package that retails for $99. Quantity discounts are given according to the following table:
Quantity Discount

I am working on a class project as layed out by the instructor. This is in conjunction with Chapter 13 (Exceptions) from the book How To Program in C++ by Deitle 4/e. I am at a total loss on this subject. I thought that catching problems was up to the compiler. I have included Figure 13.1 for an example as per instructions and some code I have been working on.

You can drop the inheritance and put in the Circle class a private data member center of type point. This way you would be able to use all the methods of the Point class on the center of the circle while keeping the design of Circle class intact.

class Circle:public Point3d
{
    // all the members
} ;
 
// with composition
class Circle
{
    Point3d* pt ;   // or Point3d pt, your call
 
   // other circle members 
} ;

Also read this and this.

Thanks for the help and he links thatwas good info. Merry Christmas

Sorry, about that. I posted incorrect file. Hope this makes more sense.

#ifndef CIRCLE4_H
#define CIRCLE4_H
#include "point3.h" // Point3 class definition
class Circle4 : public Point3 {
public:
// default constructor
Circle4( int = 0, int = 0, double = 0.0 ); 
void setRadius( double ); // set radius
double getRadius() const; // return radius
double getDiameter() const; // return diameter
double getCircumference() const; // return circumference
double getArea() const; // return area
void print() const; // output Circle4 object
private: 
double radius; // Circle4's radius
}; // end class Circle4
#endif

I recommend you read the Wikipedia article and see if that clears things up. ;)

Thanks, Been there, Done that. Just more confused.

//I need to change this program from using inheritance to using composition.

At row 378 I have started search function, but I'm not sure where to go with it from here as far as setting up the recursive alg. part of the code I don't need my exact program written, a genral snippet showing the code for showing this particular step is all I'm asking for. The directions were posted just so the existing code would be more easily understood as requested.

... does that really mean
I don't see a question in your post.

No! That's not what I'm after. I'm just looking for some help on the rec. binary search and sort. Thank You.

Here's a better explantion. Thanks!
This part"A" is already finished:
A). Create a menu with the following options, (1) Add, (2) Update, (3) Delete, (4) Sort, (5) Print, and (6) Quit.
Create an array of 10 strings up to 25 characters long and initialize each one to "none". Each item will represent a first name.
Create an array of function pointers to each of the above menu options. When the user selects an option call the appropriate function using this array.
Pass the string array to each of the functions as a parameter.
Use a bubble sort to sort the items.
Display the array when the user selects a menu item (except Sort, Print, and Quit) and then prompt the user for the nmnber (use the array subscript) of the item they want to operate on.
When deleting a name set it back to "none".
When deleting a name first confirm that the user wants to continue with the delete.
This is part"B" which has been added:
B). //I need to modify this code by changing the(existing) sort function to make it recursive
//and add a recursive binary search that prompts the user to enter a search item.
//I have added some code for the search, which I will mark with

Good Morning,
I am confined to a wheelchair and only have partial use of left hand and arm making it extremely slow and difficult to type. I am wanting to reassign the function keys(which I never use)to output the same phrase again and again. Kind of like office clipboard with no need to copy each time. Is this possible, and if so, how would I do it ? Curt Bridges allican57@yahoo.com

PS: By Wolfpack
User OS: Windows XP.

Thought I had this going, but I guess not. Would you look it over and get me headed in the right direction please.

Need help creating this to these instructions, mainly with the part where I call an existing files that has already been created and saved in Notepad as attached.(File one and File two). Below are the directions and some code. I think you will be able to tell what I’m trying to do, Thanks

Requirements:
Create a program to output the following. Make sure it is exact (except for the commission and percentage values):
Commissions calculated using a 0.07 value.
Sales Name Commission

See attachments(2)

This will be accomplished using the following:
1. Read the sales and name values from two input files.
2. Create an array of names and sales amounts (5 total).
3. Determine the commission by randomly generating a percentage number between .05 and. 10. Calculate the commission by multiplying this value times the sales amount.
4. Sort the file by name before printing.
5. Print the file to a third output file. The only thing that should show on the screen is the successful message.
6. Main should have no logic other than calling other functions. All actions should be done in functions (print, read files, sort).

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cmath>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
char arrSales[7];
char arrNames[5][16];
 
const int ARRAY_SIZE = 5;
void PrintArray(char[ARRAY_SIZE][25], char …

We got it! Thanks for your help!

still can't read files. Next step please.

I had it declared as char originally and thought that was the problem so I changed it to double and that didn't fix it and forgot to change it back. good catch

why are those double and int arrays 2-dimensional??? Arrays must have a name. There are a couple ways you can to it. Leave the array size unspecified and pass the size as another parameter, as in your original attemp.

void PrintArray(double array[], int array_size);
void BubbleSort(double array[], int array_size);
void GetNames(double array[], int array_size);

or just not pass the size as a separate parameter, like this

void PrintArray(double array[ARRAY_SIZE]);
void BubbleSort(double array[ARRAY_SIZE]);
void GetNames(double array[ARRAY_SIZE]);

Isn't the array passed to GetNames() supposed to be an array of strings? Names normally are not arrays of doubles

void GetNames(char array[ARRAY_SIZE][25]);

1: #include <iostream.h>2:3: float Convert(float);4: int main()5: {6: float TempFer;7: float TempCel;8:9: cout << "Please enter the temperature in Fahrenheit: ";10: cin >> TempFer;11: TempCel = Convert(TempFer);12: cout << "\nHere's the temperature in Celsius: ";13: cout << TempCel << endl;14: }15:16: float Convert(float Fer)17: {18: float Cel;19: Cel = ((Fer - 32) * 5) / 9;20: return Cel;21: }You should get the same

Well, that's an pretty simple asignment and if you have payed attention in class/course will you be able to figure it out. If you need any help with it then ask it here again!

Having trouble with step "c" can you help me out?

d) Total and print the elements of floating-point array c of 100 elements.
e) Copy array a into the first portion of array b. Assume double a[ 11], b[ 34];
f) Determine and print the smallest and largest values contained in 99-element floating-point array w.

Hi everyone. Iam a beginning C++ student having trouble with a simple one column char. aray. what I'm trying to do is : display the value of the seventh element of chaacter array f. Wich shoud b 6 if a=0. Please help. Below is my code, so far:
[
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int value;
int main()
{
const char(10);
char chABCD[10] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f' };
for ( int a = 0; a < 10; a++)
a=(0);
cout << value('f') << endl;]

I have a group project of designing the old board game "CLUE" in my C++ class that can be played by 1 person against the computer. If someone would help me get started it would help a bunch. I think this could be a neat project, but have no clue as to how to get it started.

we have not covered the bool functions in class yet. This was something that was suggested to me, I think there is a way to use the function " counter" but am not sure. Any ideas would help. It compiles fine. I'm just looking for a different way of coding it.

Would somebody chck this code please. I am a struggling C++ student and need all the help I can get. Thanks, Curt

Here are the directions:
create a function that check's the number, put's out whether
it's odd or even and adds it to the total variable

#include"stdafx.h"
#include<iostream>
 
usingnamespace std;
//declare the variable's
int total;
int number_buffer = 1;
 
bool checker(int number)
{
if(number == 0){return false;}
if(number%2)
{
cout << number << " is odd" << endl;
} else {
cout << number << " is even" << endl;
}
total += number;
}
int main()
{
//request user input
cin >> number_buffer;
//continue to ask input until 0 is entered, 
//if 0 is entered does checker return's false, else true.
while(checker(number_buffer)){cin >> number_buffer;}
//show the total
cout << "Total: " << total;
return 0;
}

He's posting non-spam in the C/C++ forum to get nice green dots beside his name. :cheesy:

It looks like you tried to post an image and it didn't quite work. Try clicking "Attachments" in the Advanced message window. Oh and try to explain the problem too, like what you tried and what happened.

Sorry meant to right-click. Curt

This is really a school example of how post shouldn't look like!

Sorry, first timer. I meant to right-click. Curt

Thank You.Curt

I got stumped can someone please help ?
I’m working on this home work assignment and can’t get past this point.

Here is how far I’ve got:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
 
using namespace std;
 
using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
 
int main()
{
 
int numbers,to,Enter,odd,even;
int integer,positive,a;
 
 
 
 
cout << " Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):";//0
 
cout << " Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):";//0
cin >> integer >>;
cout << "The total of the odd numbers entered is:";//0
cout << "The total of the even numbers entered is:";//0
 
 
cin >> Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):1;
cout << " 1 is odd";
cin >> Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):2;
cout << " 2 is even";
cin >> Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):3;
cout << " 3 is odd";
cin >> Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):4;
cout << " 4 is even";
cin >> Enter a positive integer(0 to quit):0<< endl
 
 
return 0;
 
 
}

I would like to introduce and tell you a little about myself. My name is "Curtis Bridges" but I like and have always been called "Curt". I'm 49 years old. I have been happily married for 31 years. I am very proud to be the "father" of an architect and a contractor. I must brag about a 5-year-old "grandson" and a 2- year-old "granddaughter", that keeps me "on my toes".
On March 17, 1999, while working as a superintendent for a large underground utility contractor out of Denver CO (Texas Division) I suffered a "Giant Basilar Aneurysm" requiring emergency surgery and leaving me paralyzed. Coming out of surgery and after a month in "ICU" the only movement I had was the ability to blink my left eye.
Originally being from Jefferson City, MO and having two sons and many relatives here, I was flown back to MO, by an air ambulance for eight months of extensive "inpatient therapy" and one year of "outpatient therapy" where I regained partial use of my left hand and learned to talk again (though not very well). So here I sit, today confined to a wheelchair. I was fortunate to be left without any "memory loss".
My voice is very soft and hard to understand therefore I speak through an electronic speech enhancer connected to speakers on my wheelchair.
After the past several years of being paralyzed, I have noticed that if you don't keep up the "pace" with "current events …
