Submitting a file upload
Using OOP, write a C++ program that will read in a file of names and a file of birth years. The file of names is called Names.txt and the file of birth years is called BirthYear.txt. Both input files should be located in the current directory of your program.
The list of names in the Names.txt file corresponds to the list of birth years in the BirthYears.txt file.
This means:
The first name in the names.txt file corresponds to the first birth year in the birthyear.txt file.
The second name in the names.txt file corresponds to the second birth year in the birthyear.txt file…and so on.
Read in and store the names into an array of 30. Next read in and store the birth years into another array of 30 integers.
Sort the arrays using the selection sort or the bubblesort code found in your textbook. List the roster of names in ascending alphabetical order displaying their birth years beside their names.
Next, prompt the user to enter a birth year. Validate this input value. Valid birth years are between the years 1995 – 2005. List each name who has the birth year entered by the user.
A quick example:
If the names.txt held the following 5 names:
Jim
Kevin
Alexis
Holly
Sam
and the birthyear.txt held the following 5 years:
1999
2001
1999
1997
2002
The output would be as follows:
Example Output
Alphabetical Roster of Names
Alexis 1999
Holly 1997
Jim 1999
Kevin 2001
Sam 2002
Names by Birth Year
Please enter the birth year: abcd
Invalid birth year entered, try again: -30
Invalid birth year entered, try again: 97
Invalid birth year entered, try again: 2022
Invalid birth year entered, try again: 1999
For the birth year of 1999:
Alexis
Jim
End of results
Another example:
Example Output
Alphabetical Roster of Names
Alexis 1999
Holly 1997
Jim 1999
Kevin 2001
Sam 2002
Names by Birth Year
Please enter the birth year: 1996
No names with the birth year 1996.
End of results
NOTE: Projects using global variables or not using a class and object appropriately will result in a grade submission of 0.
Be sure to use private member variables and private member functions.
Only the constructor (if needed) and the driver method are public.
NOTE: any program submission that does not use a class and object and/or does not use appropriate methods will result in a grade submission of 0.
Use of global variables will also result in a grade submission of 0.
To Do:
Write an algorithm indicating each step in the process until completion.
Create a Flow Chart demonstrating each step in the process.
Submit the algorithm and flowchart in the comment section of the drop box.
Upload your zipped solution folder to the Project 1 Drop Box.
Be sure to check the Rubrics before you submit your Project.
Rubrics tell you exactly what must be included in each Project and how much each item is worth.
Check the Calendar for the due date!
