Thread: Dynamic Arrays

I have created a program allows you to input the amount of items purchased, and then input the price of each item and the sales tax. It then creates a receipt which totals all the prices and sales tax.

Now I want to be able to list the items and their prices in the sales receipt as well. What would I have to do so lets say you pick 5 items and type in 5 prices and it give you the sales receipt, before it tells you the total, I want it to list the 5 items so looks like this:

Sales Receipt

Item 1: Price
Item 2: Price
Item 3: Price
Item 4: Price
Item 5: Price

**********

(rest of sales receipt)

Here is what I have so far:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char rerun;

		do //The do-while for a program rerun option
		{

// Declare variables: counter, items, sales items, sales total, sales tax, and grand total
int items, count;
int * price;
double total, percent, g_t, tax;

// Input information
	cout<<"How many sales items do you have? :";
	cin>>items;

	price= new (nothrow) int[items];
	if (price == 0)
		cout << "error";
	else
	{
			for (count = 0; count < items; count++)
			{
				cout<<"Enter the value of the sales item. : $";
				cin>>price[count];
				total = total + price;
			}
	}
		
	cout << endl << endl;

	cout<<"Enter in the sales tax percentage. :";
	cin>>percent;
		
		tax = total * (percent/100);
		g_t = tax + total;
		
	cout << endl << endl;
		
	cout << "********************************************" << endl;
	cout << "********  S A L E S  R E C E I P T  ********" << endl;
	cout << "********************************************" << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << "entered";
	for (count = 0; count < items; count++)
		cout << price[count] << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << setiosflags(ios::fixed) << setprecision(2);
	cout << "**  Total Sales:    $" << setw(9) << total << "            **" << endl;
	cout << "**  Sales Tax:      $" << setw(9) << tax << "            **" << endl;
	cout << "**                  -----------           **" << endl;
	cout << "**  Grand Total:    $" << setw(9) << g_t << "            **" << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << "**                                        **" << endl;
	cout << "********************************************" << endl;
		
	cout << endl << endl;

		cout<<"Do you want to run this program again? (y/n)";
		cin>>rerun;
			
		}

	while (rerun == 'y' || rerun == 'Y');
	
	system ("PAUSE");
	return 0;
} //End Main Function

I receive the following error:

salerec.cpp(33) : error C2111: pointer addition requires integral operand
Error executing cl.exe.

salerec.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

How should I be writing it so that an operator is used on a pointer?
