BoolfindPrice

[jaimesharp]

Here is the code i have to do this

# include <iostream>
# include <string>
# define MAXSIZE = 300
using namespace std;

bool findTitlePrice(string allTitles[300], double allPrices [300],int totalRec,string title,double price);
 
 string allTitles[300] = {
        "Book 1",
        "Book 2"};
    double allPrices[300] = {
        78.5, 66.
    };
int main () 
{


bool findTitlePrice(string allTitles [300], double allPrices [300],int totalRec,string title,double price); 
                    


int totalRec =2; 
  for(int i=0;i<totalRec;i++); 
   
    string Title;
    string allTitles [300];
   cout << "Please Enter Title";
    cin >> Title;
if (Title == allTitles [300])
cout <<"Value Found";

if (Title != allTitles [300]) cout << " Book Not Found ";

system ("pause");
         
         
         }

But i realise that the if title== allTitles [300] would not work correctly

as i have only limited records



basically i want to define it like so


Int TotalRec = 2

while I=0 <TotalRec I++)

Then I need it to perform a check on the elements in the Array all titles

which i have used a cin statement to cin data


If it finds a match it will also output for example if element 3 is a match it will cout element 3 in allTitles and element 3 in All Prices

then i was thinking of putting return true as it is a boolean value


then defining a secondary check that if it is != to allTitles []

cout " No Books found


return false;


how would i write this check as i am struggling to follow it


any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks



I am quite happy for people to edit my code but the bool function must not be changed except for the array sizes.

You could make a for() loop that checks the title against each individual member of the array, and if there is a pair, stop the loop and return true.

i.e.

bool findMatchingTitle(allTitles[300], int totalRec, string title) //one function to find matching titles
{
    for(int i = 0; i < totalRec, ++i) //i is smaller than number of books
    {
        if (title == allTitles(i)) //starts at 0 and ends at final member of array (totalRec - 1)
            return true;
    }
    return false; //gone through the loop and no matching titles
}
