OKAY here I go again ...doin some more homework.. The teacher gave us some of the code and told us what the code we needed to write should do. So inevitably I am lost. I have a lot of code written most of it was what I took as what he wanted me to write when I spoke to him. I think I have written WAY too much and have gotten lost.
What I would like here is for you to simply tell me which of my function I do not need.
The assignment is that in the end I have a text file that I will open and read info into some records (st#) of type "Studentrec" I will have to compare 2 random records with a bool operator. I havent made it this far yet, I am simply trying to get the struct to hold data and print that data part of which is an ENUM.
I will appologize right now for the length of this.. Plz feel free to point and laugh at the noob. If you see a mistake I have made plz inform me in simple explanations. everything in RED is what the instructor gave us but if its wrong let me know plz
In the end his instructions areCode:#include <iostream> #include <cstring> #include <cassert> using namespace std; enum year_in_school {freshman = 1, sophomore, junior, senior, special}; struct studentrec { char name[20]; int age; float gpa; year_in_school classification; }; //End Struct istream &operator >>(istream &is, year_in_school &yr); ostream &operator <<(ostream &os, year_in_school yr); istream &operator >>(istream &is, studentrec &r); void print ( /* I have not made this function work yet everything I put here errors*/); int main(void) { studentrec st1 = {"bob dylan", 64, 3.6, senior}; print (st1); /*this is just to test. the real prog will read from a text file I just wanted to see if everything was working*/ system ("pause"); return 0; } ostream &operator <<(ostream &os, year_in_school yr) { switch(yr) { case freshman: os << "Freshman"; break; case sophomore: os << "Sophomore"; break; case junior: os << "Junior"; break; case senior: os << "Senior"; break; case special: os << "Special"; break; default: os << "Classification Unspecified" << endl; break; } return os; } //end year_in_school OS istream &operator >>(istream &is, year_in_school &yr) { int year; is >> year; if (is.eof()) return is; yr = static_cast <year_in_school> (year); return is; } //end yr IS istream &operator >>(istream &is, studentrec &r) /* Function reads a student rec, allowing 20 characters including spacesin a name year_in_school is read with a user supplie operator >>. */ { int temp; char filler[80]; /* Reads 19 chars or to an end of line whichever comes first does not remove end of line. Adds a null character */ is.get(r.name,20); if(is.eof()) return is; is >> r.age >> r.gpa >> r.classification; /* To properly remove end of line char so next read of string works correctly reads 79 characters including end of line, adding null. End of line not stored. */ is.getline(filler,80); return is; } void print (/* I have not made this function work yet everything I put here errors*/) { int i; for(i=0; i<20; i++) cout << name[i] << endl; return; }
1. read the Students.txt file into an array and print the orig list
EX from The text file: Maynard, Jill 22 3.15 3
he wants the year_in_school (enum) to be input as an int. so far I havent been able to make it do this.
2. sort the array using the < operation (if you need ==, >= or > define them also).
I have no Idea what he is talking about here but I will ask him. or if you can offer a short simple explanation
3. Print sorted array.
I dont know if he only wants the names to be printed here or all the information printed and sorted by names again I have to talk to him again.
That will all come later for now if you could just tell me what to cut out of this and maybe a description of what I need to write.. Again I DO NOT expect anyone to do my homework for me just to aid me allong. If there is something that I will absolutly need and you can give me a lil piece of code along with an explanation that would be Wonderful.
Thank you.
