I've looked over this, and never having used classes before am a bit confused on what I'm doing wrong. If i initialize the counter variable prior to main as part of the class declaration it works fine, otherwise it gives me errors.
Code:#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class time
{
private:
int hours;
int minutes;
int seconds;
public:
time( int = 0 , int = 0 , int = 0 );
void show_time();
void tick_time();
};
time::time( int hr , int min , int sec )
{
hours = hr;
minutes = min;
seconds = sec;
}
void time::show_time()
{
cout << hours << ':' << minutes << ':' << seconds << '\n';
return;
}
void time::tick_time()
{
++seconds;
if( seconds == 60 )
{
seconds = 0;
++minutes;
if( minutes == 60 )
{
minutes = 0;
++hours;
}
}
return;
}
int main()
{
time counter;
counter.show_time();
counter.tick_time();
counter.show_time();
return 0;
}
