banking2

can any1 tell em wut's the wrong with the variables in this code, it has 13 errors,
and also i need to know how to get from b_file more than 1 line,
i'll be pleased if noone takes the code 4 himself.

Code:

---

#include<fstream.h>
#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
        struct database
{
        int choice;
        char crt[90];
        char fstname[90];
        char lstname[90];
        char bd[90];
        char mon[90];
        char str[90];
        char opn[90];
        int x;
        char data[1000];
};
        int main()

                database input;

                cout<<"----\n";
                cout<<"Your Choice: ";
                        cin>>input.choice;
                        cin.ignore();
cout<<" -------------------------------------------------------------\n";
  if(choice==1)                               
  {
        cout<<"Please type in your account name: * please note u need to type .txt after the file name\n";               
        cin.getline(input.crt, 90);
          cout<<"First name:\n";               
          cin.getline(input.fstname, 90);
          cout<<"Last Name:\n";               
          cin.getline(input.lstname, 90);
          cout<<"BirthDate\n";               
          cin.getline(input.bd, 90);
        cout<<"Please type in the amount of money you want to deposit:\n";
        cin.getline(input.mon, 90);
        ofstream a_file(input.crt, ios::noreplace); 
        strcat(input.fstname, " ");
                strcat(input.fstname, database.lstname);
        a_file<<"Full name: " <<input.fstname <<"\n";
        a_file<<"Birthdate: " <<input.bd <<"\n";
        a_file<<"Amout of money: " <<input.mon;
        a_file.close();                         
        for(int database.x=0;x<101;x++)
        {
                cout<<input.x<<endl;
 }

        cout<<"The new account has been saved\n";
                cout<<"---------  *  ____________    *  ---------\n";
       
        main();
                               
                        }
  if(choice==2)
  {
          cout<<"Please Type the name of the account, note .txt must be included:\n";
                  cin.getline( input.opn, 90);
          ifstream b_file(input.opn,  ios::nocreate);
          cout<<"\n";
          for(int input.x=0;x<101;x++);
        {
                cout<<x<<endl;
 }
          cout<<input.opn <<"Opened, the data stored is:\n";
          b_file.get(input.data, 1000);
          cout<<input.data;
          b_file.close();
  }





}

use these headers and namespace

Code:

---

#include<fstream>
#include<iostream>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string>

using namespace std;

---

Instead of

Code:

---

if(choice==1)

---

use

Code:

---

if(input.choice==1)

---

This is wrong

Code:

---

strcat(input.fstname, database.lstname);

---

try

Code:

---

strcat(input.fstname, input.lstname);

---

I have no idea what your doing here

Code:

---

for(int database.x=0;x<101;x++)
{
  cout<<input.x<<endl;
}

---

database is the name of the struct, so database.x wont work. are you trying to output the input.x number 101 times ? confussed..

i did these things it now has 1 errors,
but of course i added alot to the code i want to put a new function in themain function i wrote it like that

Code:

---

          int quest()
{
bla
bla
bla
}

---

it says wrong function definitions.

I would advice you to get an error free code before starting to add even more code. Could you post your current code with error message.

Code:

                cout<<"This is not an option\n";
                quest();
                        }

        }
}
}

---

This is how you make a function.

Code:

---


int quest(); //prototype

int main()
{

  quest();
  return 0;
}

int quest()
{
  //place code inside here
}

---

Also, this code looks wrong aswell

Code:

---

if(input.qui==y||yes)

---

I cant seem to find where you declare yes

Code:

---

if(input.qui=="y")

---

here's da code

Note: I'm still a C++ beginner, I've just read the first 10 lessons of the tutorial in the www.cprogramming.com website, I've fixed the errors in a beginners way, but the program is working now..

Hey Sweet2awy..

1-) The quest error:

before you declare:

Code:

---

int main()
{
code;
code;
code;
}

---

you had to declare the quest(); but not define it, exactly as u do with functions:

int quest();

and you would define it after ending the main() as you've done, so that it would be like that:

Code:

---

#include<fstream.h>
#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
struct database
{
code;
code;
code;
};
int quest();
int main()
{
code;
code;
code;
}
int quest()
{
code;
code;
code;
}

---

-------------------------------------------------------------------------


2-) quit didn't work for a problem, I've fixed it also,
you wrote:

Code:

---

if(input.qui="y")
{
code;
}
if(input.qui="y")
{
code;
}
else
{
code;
}

---

that way can't work with char(s), just works with int(s) & may b float(s) i guess,
so u should hav written as we've learned in the strings lesson, u should use the way of comparing strings as follows:

Code:

---

if(!strcmpi("y", input.qui))
{
code;
}
else if(!strcmpi("n", input.qui))
{
code;
}
else
{
code;
}

---

-------------------------------------------------------------------------


3-) another error was that:

Code:

---

for(int input.c=0;c<11;c++)
{
 cout<<c<<endl;
}

---

that will make confusion, cos now when you say input.c it's okay, but when u say c<11 it's not right, cos it's undefined (c) is undefined while (input.c) is, & if u converted it to input.c<11, I guess we won't be able to convert the third attribute to input.c++
so I've removed both of the int x; & int c; from the struct database, and I've declared them normally in int main()


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


4-) another error was that (not completely an error):

Code:

---

a_file<<"Full name: "<<input.fstname<<"\n"
a_file<<"Birthdate: "<<input.bd<<"\n"
a_file<<"Amout of money: "<<input.mon;

---

which would put every detail in a single line, that will not make it able for the option "2" (open an existant account) to view the whole file as it only takes the first line, so I've put'em all in one line that way:

Code:

---

a_file<<"Full Name: "<<input.fstname<<" _ "<<"Birthdate: "<<input.bd<<" _ "<<"Amout of money: "<<input.mon;

---

-------------------------------------------------------------------------


5-) Another thing was that u forgot to recall the menu main(); after ending some commands, so the program was ending itself after viewing an existant account and in other ways..
