Error Messages...

hello everyone. im new to the forums and i dont really know how to use tags(sorry about that, administrator). anyway i have a really annoying problem when i try to compile this using Borland- i get like 6 error all saying "type mismatch in parameter..." and "cannot convert int to const char". I'd appreciate some help. Thanks

Code:

---

#include<iostream>
#include<conio>
#include<stdio>
#include<string>


class tourist{


 private:


  char namet[5];
  char tot[5];
  char fromt[5];
  char typet;
  int ID;
  int distance;
  int charge;




 public:


  void getdata(){
  cout<<"Enter ID:, then name(separated by enter key)";
  cin>>ID;
  cin.get(namet,5);
  cout<<"\nEnter to/from:(type destination, hit enter, type origin, hit enter)";
  cin.getline(tot,5);
  cin.get(fromt,5);
  cout<<"\nEnter distance:";
  cin>>distance;
  cout<<"\nEnter type:";
  gets(typet);
      }


  void calccharge(){
      if(strcmp(typet,'e'))
      charge=distance*30;
      else charge=distance*20;
        }


  void display(){
      cout<<"\nDetails are"<<"\t"<<ID<<"\t"<<namet<<"\t"<<typet<<"\t"<<tot<<"\t"<<fromt<<"\t"<<charge;
          }
};




void main(){


    tourist t1;
    cout<<"\n";
    t1.getdata();
    t1.calccharge();
    t1.display();




 }

PS the variable names are a bit messed up cause i changed them since i thought i was using a reserved word or something...

Just a few things I noticed.
<conio> and <stdio> are not standard headers.
gets() doesn't work with single characters, same with strcmp().

Change void main to int main: SourceForge.net: Void main - cpwiki
Change your char arrays to std::string.
Do not ever use gets. Use std::getline.
Compare std::string with the == operator.
Indent properly: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawik...le=Indentation
Get a modern compilers (GCC or Clang recommended).
