Question

Create a program that filters and displays the correct menu items based on the day that the user enters.

Console

Menu of the Day

 

COMMAND MENU

Specify the day using the three-letter format (mon, tue, wed, thu, fri, sat, sun). Or, enter 'exit' to exit.

 

Day:  mon

Roast beef               10

Potato soup              6

Baked cod                10

 

Day:  tue

Butter chicken           11

Lamb tikka               12

German forest cake       7

 

Day:  exit

Bye!

Specifications

  • A tab-delimited text file named menu.txt that contains the menu items for the current week is attached. Each item has a name (a string), price (an integer), and associated day (a string)
  • Use a structure named MenuItem to store the name, price, and day for each menu item.
  • When the program starts, it should load the items from the file into a vector of MenuItem objects.
  • The user should be able to type a three-letter day code to display the menu items for the specified day.

The user should be able to exit by typing “exit” when prompted for the day.  

 

Everytime I run the code it is blank. Please help.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Note: As any programming language is not mentioned So using C++ to solve the problem

Program:

#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

// define structure menu item
struct menuItemStruct
{
    string name,dayName;
    int itemPrice;
};

// main function
int main()
{
    // open file
    ifstream in("menu.txt");
    if(in.good()==false)
    {
        cout<<"Create a input file first ";
        exit(0);
    }

    string dayName;
    int itemPrice,i=0,numOfItems;
    char n[1000];

    vector<menuItemStruct> item;
    while(in.getline(n,1000,'\t'))
    {
        string s(n);
        in>>itemPrice;
        in>>dayName;
        menuItemStruct m;
        m.name=n;
        m.itemPrice=itemPrice;
        m.dayName=dayName;
        item.push_back(m);
        i++;
    }

    numOfItems=i;
    cout<<"Command Menu"<<endl;
    cout<<"specify the day using the three-letter format(mon,tue,wed,thr,fri,sat,sun).Or,enter 'exit' to exit."<<endl;
    cout<<"Day: ";
    cin>>dayName;
    
    while(dayName!="exit")
    {
        i=0;
        while(i<numOfItems)
        {
            string inptValue=item[i].dayName;
            int priceValue=item[i].itemPrice;
            if(inptValue==dayName)
                cout<<item[i].name<<"\t"<<priceValue;
            i++;
        }
        cout<<"\n\nDay: ";
        cin>>dayName;
    }
}
