Chapter 12, Problem 16PC

Customer Accounts

This program should be designed and written by a team of students. Here are some suggestions:

• One student should design function main, which will call other program functions. The remainder of the functions will be designed by other members of the team.
• The requirements of the program should be analyzed so that each student is given about the same workload.

Write a program that uses a structure to store the following data about a customer account:

• Name
• Address
• City, State, and ZIP
• Telephone Number
• Account Balance
• Date of Last Payment

The structure should be used to store customer account records in a file. The program should have a menu that lets the user perform the following operations:

• Enter new records into the file
• Search for a particular customer’s record and display it
• Search for a particular customer’s record and delete it
• Search for a particular customer’s record and change it
• Display the contents of the entire file

Input Validation: When the data for a new account is entered, be sure the user enters data for all the fields. No negative account balances should be entered.
