String processing
I'm trying to practice for my coding quiz when I face with this problem. I have no idea how to code this so can somebody please help me out? Details below.
PHOTOCOPYING
Format: The first line contains the number of records, N (1 ≤ N ≤ 200). Each of the following N lines represents a record of the photocopying machine. The fee for each copy is 20 cents. In each line, the first 15 characters represent a student's name in capital letters. The next two characters represent the number of copies made. You should note that there is a space before a 1-digit number.
EXAMPLE 1:
input:
4
MARY 20
JONATHAN 13
MARY 38
ADA 7
output:
STUDENT AMOUNT
-----------------------
MARY 11.60
ADA 1.40
JONATHAN 2.60
I'm stuck with the storing of names and outputting the names. Please help. Thanks a lot!

Sorry but there should be spaces after names, the editor won't let me enter spaces.
For Mary, there should be 11 spaces after in the input session.
For Jonathan, 7 spaces after in the input session.
etc.

use stringstream.
store the names in a std::string, and the number of copies in an int.
what dictates how many spaces you require?
