Payroll Program with inheritance

Pages: 12
LostStudent (27)
I am writing a payroll program with inheritance that has the following requirments:

Expand the Employee Payroll program to include hourly based and salary based employees. This phase uses an array of employee objects, inheritance for different classes of employees, and polymorphism for salary computation. The 52 week yearly salary as well as number of overtime hours worked by a salary based employee is given). For salary based employees, to find the regular (gross) pay for a week, divide the salary by 52. To compute the overtime pay for a salary based employee, first find the hourly rate by dividing the gross pay by 40, and then compute overtime pay. For every employee, overtime pay, tax amount, and net pay must also be computed. In addition, the program should find the minimum and maximum net pay of all employees as well as sort the employees based on their net pay (ascending order).

This is my code:

#include<fstream>
#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;
class payroll{
ifstream fin;
public: string employeename;
char paystat;
int n;
int hoursworked,overtimehours;
double hourlyrate,regularpay, minnp, maxnp;
double overtimepay,grosspay,taxrate,taxamount,netpay;
double totalnetpay, avgnetpay;
virtual double findgrosspay();
virtual double calculatetax();
virtual double calculatenetpay();
virtual double findavgnetpay();
void printmax(double, double);
void sortbypointers(void);
payroll();
~payroll();
void printreport(); };
payroll::payroll(){

class hourly: public payroll{
public: double findgrosspay(){
if(hoursworked > 40){
overtimehours=hoursworked-40;
regularpay=hoursworked*hourlyrate;
overtimepay=overtimehours*(hourlyrate*1.5);
grosspay=regularpay+overtimepay;}
else
grosspay=hoursworked*hourlyrate;
regularpay=grosspay;
return grosspay;
}//findgrosspay
};
class salaried:public payroll{
public: double findgrosspay(){
if(hoursworked>0){
overtimepay=hoursworked*(regularpay/52/40);
regularpay=hourlyrate/52;
grosspay=regularpay+overtimepay; }//IF
return grosspay;
}//findgrosspay
};
fin.open("salariedemployees.in");}
payroll::~payroll(){
fin.close();}
double payroll::calculatetax(){
taxrate=.30;
taxamount=grosspay*taxrate;
return taxamount;
}//findtaxamount
};
double payroll::calculatenetpay(){
netpay=grosspay-taxamount;
totalnetpay=totalnetpay+netpay;
return netpay;
}//calculatenetpay
};
double payroll::findavgnetpay(){
avgnetpay=totalnetpay/n;
std::cout<<endl<<"The average net pay for "<<n<<" employees is "
<<setw(8)<<setprecision(2)<<fixed<<left<<showpoint<<avgnetpay<<endl;
return avgnetpay;
}//findavgnetpay
double payroll::minnet(double minnp, int n){
if(n==0) {minnp=1000000;}
if(netpay<minnp=netpay;}
std::cout<<endl<<"The minimum net pay for "<<n<<"employees is"
<<setw(8)<<setprecision(2)<<fixed<<left<<showpoint<<minnp<<endl;
return minnp;
}//minnet
double payroll::maxnet(double maxnp, int n){
if(n==0) {maxnp=3000000;}
if(netpay<maxnp=netpay;}
std::cout<<endl<<"The maximum net pay for "<<n<<"employees is"
<<setw(8)<<setprecision(2)<<fixed<<left<<showpoint<<maxnp<<endl;
return maxnp;
}/maxnp

void sortbypointers(){
cout << "Before sorting by pointer:" << endl;
double *p[n];
int i,j;
double *temp;
int sortedflag=0;
for(i=0;i<n;i++) p[i]=netpay+i; //INITIALIZING POINTER ARRAY
for(i=0;i<n;i++)cout<< "$" << *p[i]<<" ";
while (!sortedflag){
sortedflag=1;
for(j=0;j<n-1;j++ ){
if (*p[j]>*p[j+1]){
temp=p[j];
p[j]=p[j+1];
p[j+1]=temp;
sortedflag=0; }//SWAP
}//J
}//I
cout<<endl<<"SORTED ARRAY:";
for(i=0;i<n;i++)cout<<*p[i]<<" ";
}//sortfunction




void payroll::printheadings(){
cout<<setw(40)<<"-PAYROLL REPORT-"<<endl;

}//PRINTREPORT
int main(){
payroll employee*employee[6]*report;

while(fin>>aemployeename>>apaystat>>ahoursworked>>ahourlyrate){
if(apaystat=='s'){
employee[n]=new salaried();
employee[n]->setvariables(aemployeename,apaystat,ahoursworked,ahourlyrate);
employee[n]->findgrosspay(); }//if s
if(apaystat=='h'){
employee[n]=new hourly();
employee[n]->setvariables(aemployeename,apaystat,ahoursworked,ahourlyrate);
employee[n]->findgrosspay(); }//if h
n++;
}//WHILE

sortnetpays(netpays, n);
fin.close();

system ("pause");
}//MAIN




The only error I get is:

55 C:\Dev-Cpp\5 Phase 1 trying 2.cpp expected declaration before '}' token

I am not sure if I have just made a HUGE mess, or just a simple error?? Thanks for the help. I have a week left of a course and have 2 programs to finish while trying to work full time. Any help is greatly appreciated :).

If you could edit it and put your posts between the [c0de] this is where your code should go [/c0de] tags. Remember to replace the 0 in c0de with an o as in code.

Agghhh you have a mess of it though.

1) You cannot declare a class inside the constructor of your payroll. Declare them off by themselves.

2) }/maxnp should have // 2 slashes

3) payroll employee*employee[6]*report; I think you mean payroll employee, employee[6], report;

Thank you! Could you please explain #1 to me a little more?

Aloha, Im guessing here that you are taking a class with ESC(SUNY) as well. I know this is unrelated to this discusion. Would you mind if I take a look at your week 6 C to see where I am making a mistake, I got it to compile but not getting any of my data.
LostStudent (27)
If you post your code, I will look at it and give you any suggestions that I can that may help.
tdigdug (36)
I wil post it in a new discussion

Zaita or anyone who can help.......do you have any ideas what I am doing incorrectly? I have 2 programs to finish by 12:00 midnight Friday...yikes!! Thank you kindly!

You didn't read my last answer.
1) You cannot declare a class inside the constructor of your payroll. Declare them off by themselves.


1
2
3
 
      payroll::payroll(){ // Start Payroll Constructor
      
  class hourly: public payroll{ // Declare new Class? Cannot Do this.


should be:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
 
class Class1 {
  Class1() { /* Constructor */ }
};

class Class2 {

};

class Class3 {

};


Please, try reading the answers people give you thoroughly.

I have e-mailed with my professor back and forth. He has given me some help, as well as a classmate. I have edited the code, but, still have a couple of errors. Any thoughts are appreciated. Zaita, the professor wrote the code class hourly: public payroll{.......... I am thoroughly confused.

I appreciate the help!

This is the error code:

If your tutor wrote any large amounts of this code. I'd be asking for my money back on the course fees.

I have fixed your indentation, and put comments in where the problems are. You should be able to work from here. Try to keep the indentation tidy, it makes it alot easier to read/maintain/fix the code.

There seems to be a problem with my variables.
guestgulkan (2942)
This should get rid of a couple of the errors (starting at line 92):
void sortbypointers() should be part of the payroll class
so should be defined as
void payroll::sortbypointers()
guestgulkan (2942)
Once you have done that you will get an error about line 94 again because
you cannot declare an array with a variable subscript:
double*p[n]; //wrong - cannot set the size of an array using a variable like this.

guestgulkan (2942)
Your main function is somewhat screwed up.

Thank you. I changed that. There is something wrong with my variables. Do you have any ideas? Thanks kindly.

I changed my code in alot of ways, but, now I seem to have troubles with declaring n............
