Hi guys, sorry to make things a little difficult, i apologize. Below is the full code. One problem I think I see but not sure of is the conversion between converting cents to 100 * cents to give me something to work with. Its a double...
code (plz see below). Also fyi I felt it would be quite a challenge to try to work out the decimal accuracy thing. Sure there are libraries and I'll use them if I can't get it : )
double convert_cents(double cents)
{
return cents*100;
}
Full code:
#include <QCoreApplication>
#include<iostream>
#include<math.h>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;
double change_due_now( double payment, double item_cost)
{
return payment - item_cost;
}
double convert_cents(double cents)
{
return cents*100;
}
int find_change(int cents_no_decimal, int quarters, int &dimes, int &nickels, int & pennies, int & checksum_1)
{
//rounding error cmopensation
int r_remainder = 0;
double pennies_1=0;
quarters = cents_no_decimal / 25;
r_remainder=cents_no_decimal % 25;
cout<<"quarters :"<<quarters<<endl;
//cout<<"remainder :"<<r_remainder<<endl;
dimes = r_remainder/10;
cout<<"dimes :"<<dimes<<endl;
r_remainder = r_remainder % 10;
//cout<<dimes<<endl;//" "<<r_remainder;
nickels = r_remainder/5;
cout<<"nickles :"<<nickels<<endl;
pennies = (r_remainder % 5);
cout<<"pennies :"<<pennies<<endl;
cout<<"---------"<<endl;
checksum_1 = (quarters*25)+ (dimes*10) + (nickels * 5) + (pennies * 1) ;
cout<<"sum change = "<<checksum_1<<endl;
return 0;
