    Classes

    if anyone can help me i am unsure of what to do after this point
    basically i have created the header file
    it has all the get and set things
    and i have the structure for the .cpp file but i am unsure of what to put into the .cpp

    Code:
    #include "StdAfx.h"
    #include "Circle.h"
    
    float Circle::getradius()
    {
    // what do I put in here ???
    }
    void Circle::setradius(float)
    {
    // what do I put in here ???
    }
    thanks for your time

    Moved to C++ programming forum.

    You may want to show us Circle.h.

    this is circle.h i am just looking for an example of what i should do really for the .cpp file
    Code:
    class Circle
    {
    private: 
    
    	float raduis
    
    
    public: 
    
    	void setraduis(float);
    	float getraduis(void);
    
    	Circle(void);
    	~Circle(void);
    
    }

    Note that raduis should be radius, and you are missing two terminating semi-colons in your header file.

    Anyway, you just need to assign to the member variable in setradius() and return it in getradius().

    At the end of the class definition:
    Code:
    class Circle
    {
    // ...
    }; // <--
