C++ Assignment Help using arrays... I think :D

DamienH

Hello,
I've been set an assignment in uni to design a program that allows the user to input a set of values for the components of pcs. They must then be presented with a list of the computer brand names. When one of these brand names is chosen, the programme spits out the info relating to that pc. I know it's a stupid programme but thats what he wants so I gotta do it.

The code I've done is shown below

// asdasdasdasdsada.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"

// fshshsh.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"

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

class motherboard {
 public:
   void m_set();
   void m_get();
 private:
   char processor[32];
   int speed;
   int ram;
};
void motherboard::m_set()
{
 cout<<"Enter manufacturer of processor:"<<endl;
 cin>>processor;

 cout<<"Enter processor speed in GHZ:"<<endl;
 cin>>speed;

 cout<<"Enter RAM value in GB:"<<endl;
 cin>>ram;

 cout << "" << endl;
};

void motherboard::m_get()
{
 cout<<"Processor: "<< processor <<endl;
  cout <<"Processor Speed: "<<speed<< " GHZ " <<endl;
  cout <<"RAM: "<< ram << "GB" <<endl;
}


class videocard {
 public:
   void v_set();
   void v_get();
 private:
   char brand[32];
   int xresn;
   int yresn;
   int memorysize;
};
void videocard::v_set()
{
 cout<<"Enter manufacturer of video card:"<<endl;
 cin>>brand;

 cout<<"Enter video-card memory size:"<<endl;
 cin>>memorysize;

 cout<<"Enter X-Plane Resolution:"<<endl;
 cin>>xresn;

 cout<<"Enter Y-Plane Resolution:"<<endl;
 cin>>yresn;
};

void videocard::v_get()
{
 cout<<"Videocard Manufacturer: "<< brand <<endl;
  cout<<"Size of videocard memory: "<< memorysize<<endl;
  cout<<"Resolution: "<< xresn <<" by "<< yresn<<endl;
}


class computer : public motherboard, public videocard
 {
 public:
   void c_set();
   void c_get();
 private:   
   char name[32];
   int hard_disk;
   float price;
};

void computer::c_set()
{
 cout<<"Enter manufacturer of the computer:"<<endl;
 cin>>name;

 cout<<"Hard-disk Capacity in GB:"<<endl;
 cin>>hard_disk;

 cout<<"Cost:"<<endl;
 cin>>price;
};

void computer::c_get()
{
cout 	 << "Computer Manufacturer :" << name << endl;
cout     << "Hard-Disk Capacity: " << hard_disk << "GB" << endl;
cout     << "Cost of unit: " << price << "GBP" << endl;
  
}

int main (void)
{
int count = 0;
int num = 0;
int back = 0;

computer my_pc [10];
videocard vcard[10];
motherboard mb[10];

cout << " Please enter the number of computer specifications that you wish to input: " << endl;
cin >> num;

for ( count = 0;  count<num ; count++ )
{

my_pc[count].c_set();
vcard[count].v_set();
mb[count].m_set();

}
cout << " Which computer would you like to choose? From 0 -" << num - 1 << endl;
cin>> back;

cout << " Computer " << back << endl;
my_pc[back].c_get();
cout << "" << endl;
cout << " Video Card Specifications " << endl;
vcard[back].v_get();
cout << "" << endl;
cout << " Motherboard Specifications " <<endl;
mb[back].m_get();


}

This works so far and I'm pretty happy with it tbh. The only thing I'm stuck on is the brand name list. Can anyone suggest how I might be able to do this? I basically want a list e.g 1: Compaq, 2: Dell, 3: Avion, that will show the corresponding components. As you can see from above, I can choose a pc if I write down what position I entered them in.

I hope I've made myself clear but I'm not the best at explaining, thanks for any help anyway.
