Thread: This one simple thing I cant do for my assignment need help

Hello I have an assignment that I pretty much finished heres some of the output is as follows:


Property Type: RNT
Cost: 1500 dollors
Contains: 2 bedrooms
Days On Market: 20 days
Address: 560 Rumproast road

Converting RNT into a RNT..........
ERROR this property is alreay a rental


I want it to number the property type. for example I want it to say "property type 1: RNT, property type 2: RNT. ect.

I cant figure out how to do that without it displaying a garbage number. Heres my source code:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#define DATA 10



class properties
{
   private:
       //char *p_pointer[10];
	   char type[DATA];
	   //char RNT[10];
	   int price;
	   int bedrooms;
	   int days_on_market;
	   char address[50];
	  
  
	   
	 
   public:
	  properties() {}
	  properties(char typ[], int pri, int bedrm, int days_on_m, char addr[]);
      char* get_type();
	  char* get_address();
	  int get_price();
	  int get_days_on_market();
	  void convert_to_rental();
	  void print_listing();
	  void set_property(char typ[], int pri, int bedrm, int days_on_m,char addr[]);
     
};

  
//-------------------------Main()-------------------------------------------
int main()
{
	using std::cin;
	using std::cout;
	using std::endl;
    properties prop1("RNT", 1500, 2, 20, "560 Rumproast road");
    properties prop2("CND", 2000, 4, 60, "203 lumix vile");
	prop1.print_listing();
	prop1.convert_to_rental();
	prop2.print_listing();
	prop2.convert_to_rental();

    cin.get();
	return 0;
}
