Thread: Need help in continuing my matching program for matching people according to traits

so basically i need a program that allows a clerk to enter details. Then log in using those details. Then the clerk is required to enter details of of 10 people. details are:- Name, age,Gender, height, region and No. of past relationships. one he enters these details they are saved. now these details are of 10 different people. he then enters a clients requirements (which are specific details of the match he/she is looking for) if no match is found it displays "no match found" and if results have matches, a report is made of the people with their details.

Code:

#include<string.h>#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
    char username[20];
    char storedusername[20];
    char password[20];
    char storedpassword[20];
    int loginresult;
    char name[20];








 int login()
 {
 
 
    int logins;
    
    cout<<"username";
    cin>>username;
    cout<<"password";
    cin>>password;
    
    if((strcmp(username ,storedusername)==0)&&(strcmp(password,storedpassword)==0))
    {
        logins=1;
    }
    
    else
    {
        logins=0;
    }
    
    return logins;
}












 void rregister ()
{
    cout<<"enter your name"<<endl;
    cin>>name;
    cout<<"enter your username:";
    cin>>storedusername;
    cout<<"enter your password:";
    cin>>storedpassword;
}










  void match()
{
//*create structures to store information of the people to be matched*/


struct person
{
char name [20];
int age;
char region[20];
int pastr;
int height;
};


//*create an array to hold the structures that have information on people to be matched*/


struct person arrayOfStructures[10];


//*Enter the information of the people to be matched useing for loop*/


for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
cout<<"Enter Information for person number: "<< i <<endl;
cout<<"NAME: ";
cin>> arrayOfStructures[i].name;
cout<<"AGE: ";
cin>> arrayOfStructures[i].age;
cout<<"REGION: ";
cin>> arrayOfStructures[i].region;
cout<<"PAST RELATIONSHIPS: ";
cin>> arrayOfStructures[i].pastr;
cout<<"HEIGHT: ";
cin>> arrayOfStructures[i].height;
}


}








int main()
{


    
    rregister();
    
    cout<<"Registration successfull "<<endl;
    
    cout<<"Enter username and password to login "<<endl;
    
    
    loginresult=login();
    
    //if(loginresult!=1)
    
    while(loginresult!=1)
    {
        cout<<"username or password is incorrect signn in again "<<endl;
        loginresult=login();
       
    }
    
    cout<<"login success ";
    
    match();


}

Do you have a question/problem with your code?

Why all the global variables?

You should find and consistently use an indentation style you like, it'll make your program easier to read. And IMO you have a few too many blank lines.
