Need help with this arrays moving into functions

[RJP0803]

So im having some serious problems here. I'm trying to so far debug the program before moving on and im having trouble passing an array to a function (in purchase tickets).

  // Theater Array Project
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

const int rows = 15;
const int cols = 30;


//Function Prototypes
void displayMenu();
int getChoice();
void displaySeats(string[]);
void displayPrices(double[]);
void displaySales();
bool purchaseTicket();


int main ()
{
	//DECLARATION SECTION
	double rowPrice [15];
	int choices;
	string seats[15][30];
	
	//GETTING PRICE FOR TICKECTS BASED ON THE ROW
for (int price = 0; price<15; price++)
	{
		cout<<"Please enter ticket price for Row "<<setw(2)<<price+1<<": ";
		cin>>rowPrice[price];
	}
	
//FUNCTION CALLS
	displayMenu();
	choices=getChoice();
		//processing choices
		while(choices != 5)
{
	//Display available seats
	if (choices == 1)
	{
		displaySeats(seats);
		
		
	}
	//Display row prices
	else if (choices == 2)
	{
		displayPrices(rowPrice);
		
		
	}
	//Display ticketSales
//	else if (choices == 3)
//	{
//		displaySeats();
//		
//		
//	}
	//Display Ticket purchase option
	else if (choices == 4)
	{
		purchaseTicket();
		
	}
	displayMenu();
	choices = getChoice();
}

	return 0;
}

What kind of problems are you having? Compile errors? Run time errors? Not getting the correct result? Please be specific.

Line 15: Your function prototype is incorrect. You've said that diplaySeats() takes a 1D array. It should take a 2D array.

void displaySeats(string[][cols]);

Line 44: This line is correct, but the function prototype for displaySeats() says it takes a 1D array.

Lines 24,26,29,126,128,145,152,186,193,205,212: If you're going to define constants for the number of rows and columns, use the constants. Don't hard code values.

Line 115: Your function signature is incorrect. It must agree with the function prototype.

Line 181: You're trying to pass the seats array, but the seats array is undefined. It's a local variable in main. You need to pass the array to purchaseTickets as an argument.

You're calling displaySeats() with an out of bound reference to a single seat. You need to pass the entire seats array to displaySeats(). You don't need to specify the size of the array here.

[RJP0803]

sorry wrong one

[AbstractionAnon]

I see you ignored my advice about using defined constants for array sizes and went so far as to remove them (lines 8 and 9 in your original post).

Line 115: seats is a local variable. It goes out of scope when you exit displaySeats? How do you expect to retain the status of the seats across calls to displaySeats()?

string is overkill for saving the status of a seat. char is perfectly adequate.

Line 180: purchaseTicket has no visibility to the seats array. You need to declare the seats array in main() and pass it to both displaySeats() and purchaseTicket().

lines 118,120: price and prices are odd (and confusing) names for indexes. r and c are more commonly used for a 2D seating array.

line 122: You're unconditionally setting each seat to '#'. That does not belong in a function to display the status of seats. Each time you call displaySeats(), you're going to set every seat back to unoccupied. You should have a separate function to initialize the seating array that is called once at the beginning of your program.

Line 216: You need to check if the seat is available here. Loop back and ask the user for a different selection if the seat has been sold. If available, then you need to mark it as unavailable here.

ah im sorry i just realized that was the wrong one -_-
