Program Plan Intro

The “write” member function:

The “write” member function is one of the file stream object’s functions and it is used to write the binary data or raw data in the specified file.

The syntax of the “write” function is as follows:

filestreamobject.write(address,size)

  • The “filestreamobject” is the object name of a stream.
  • The argument “address” indicates the part of the memory that is to be written on the specified file. This argument must be address or pointer of a char.
  • The argument “size” indicates the number of bytes which is to be written. This argument must be an integer.

Typecast – Converts the value of one type into another type.

The type cast which is used to convert the pointer of one type to another type is “reinterpret_cast”.

  • The basic format for “reinterpret_cast” as follow as:
    • reinterpret_cast <dataType>( argument)
    • Here, the “dataType” is the type that user converting to, similarly the “argument” is the value which the user wants to convert.

Language: C++ Subject: OOP   Task:You have to write a program to store information of university students. There can be many students in university, so you can make a Student class and objects of class Student to store information. The university is interested in storing information about student’s name, enrollment, department, class, CGPA and gender. You can store this information as data member values for each object. But as you already know you cannot directly access data members of a class, so you need to make member functions to access data members. You can make as many member functions as you want. There are no restrictions. The University is interested in knowing the student’sname with highest CGPA in a specific class. For example if you entered information of 10 students from class BSIT 2 and information of 5 students from class BSIT 3, and it is asked to find name of student with highest CGPA in BSIT 2 then your program must be able to find details of highest CGPA student from…
C++Inventory Program Write a program that uses a structure to store the following inventory data in a file: Item Description Quantity on Hand Wholesale Cost Retail Cost Date Added to Inventory The program should have a menu that allows the user to perform the following tasks: •             Add new records to the file. •             Display any record in the file. •             Change any record in the file. Input Validation: The program should not accept quantities, or wholesale or retail costs, less than 0.The program should not accept dates that the programmer determines are unreasonable.
