Hello again, I'm having trouble with a program that I have to write involving classes and arrays. Essentially i have to create a class Theater, which I am not sure how to do. The theater has 15 rows with 30 seats per row, and each row is assigned a price for each seat, inputted from a text file. I cannot seem to get the 2d array to work properly. The user should be able to purchase a specific seat using the inputted prices, which keeps a running total of seats purchased. The output should show each row and seat and put a * if the seat is purchased and a # if the seat is available.

This is what I have so far, please let me know if it is to sloppy and I will do my best to make it cleaner, sorry.

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib> 
using namespace std;

void menu();
void purchase();
void total_value();
void total_number();
void seats_row();
void seats_all();
void seating_chart();

void get_price()
{
    int i;
    ifstream fin;
    fin.open("seats.txt");
    int price[15];
    for(i=1; i<16; i++)
    {
        fin >> price[i];
        cout << "Row " << i << " is $" << price[i] << endl;
    }
}

void purchase()
{
    int seat;
    int row;
    int total;
    do
    {
        do
        {
            cout << "-------- Purchase Seats --------" << endl
                 << "Enter the row and seat number desired." << endl
                 << "There are 15 rows and 30 seats per row." << endl
                 << "Enter -1 for the Row Number When You are Done." << endl;
            cout << "Row Number: ";
            cin >> row;
            if(row == -1)
            {
                cin.sync();
                menu();
            }
            cout << "Seat Number: ";
            cin >> seat;
            cout << endl;
        }while(row > 0);
        if(row < 1 || row > 15 || seat < 1 || seat > 30)
            cout << "You must enter an appropriate value.\n\n";
    }while(row < 1 || row > 15 || seat < 1 || seat > 30);
}

    get_price();

I have helped you out by writing what I think you want and put it into a "cleaner" format (could be more clean) and divided it into seperate files for structure. (file allinone.cpp is the whole thing in one file if this is for school and they want it in one)

I did my best to comment lines to show you what is going on.

I attached all the files.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

struct SEAT //seat structure
{
	double price; //set later to a value from your input text file
	char status; //either '*' or '#'
};

class THEATER
{
	SEAT seats[15][30]; //the seats in the theater
	double ticketsSold, ticketsSoldDollars; //values for tickets sold and how much money the tickets were worth
	
	public:
		
	THEATER(){}; //default constructor
	THEATER(const char* inputFile); //new constructor
	
	void menu(); //main menu
	
	void getSeatsAvailable(const char* sel); //says how many seats are available overall or by row (based on sel)
	void getTicketsSold(); //outputs ticketsSold
	void getTicketsSoldDollars(); //outputs tickestSoldDollars
	
	void display(); //displays all the seats in the theater
	void purchase(); //asks user what seat they want to buy
};

THEATER::THEATER(const char* inputFile)
{
	ticketsSold = 0, ticketsSoldDollars = 0;
	ifstream in;
	double price;
	
	in.open(inputFile);
	
	for( int i = 0; i < 15; i++ )
	{
		in >> price; //get price from the text file
		for( int c = 0; c < 30; c++ )
		{
			seats[i][c].price = price; //set the price to each seat in the row
			seats[i][c].status = '#'; //set each seat to available
		}
	}
	in.close();
	menu(); //starts the menu function
}

wow thanks a lot, im fairly sure i can work through it now, much appreciated.

Member Avatar for sfuo

I see you just took the allinone.cpp if you actually want to learn some form of structure for coding bigger projects I suggest you look at the divided files and then look at the single. I find looking at something with 500+ lines a little overwhelming when you are just starting out.

Member Avatar for Kaotic07

Yeah that may help, I'm just using them as guidelines and re-writing what i originally had. Thanks

Member Avatar for Kaotic07

Got it. Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
