Calculating the "speedFine" variable

[petershelton]

This is the class declaration for FineCalculator ( int courtFee), I am attempting to calculate a speeding fine using the member function getFine( zone, speedLimit, actualSpeed). I would like all the input/output activities as shown done in main and the continued program execution "while( zone != 0 ). The delima is that speedFine does not calculate in the cout << statement in main. I thought that creating the myfc.getFine(zone, ......) object and assigning it to speedFine would make the function call. Any guidance and direction would be greatly appreciated.

/* Member functions of class FineCalculator that determines the
dollar amount that is accessed for exceeding the speed limit based
on different zones, a court fee is also included in the fine **/

#include <iostream>
using namespace std ;
#include "FineCalculator.h" // include definition of class FineCalculator

FineCalculator :: FineCalculator ( int courtFee )
{
setFeeAmount (courtFee );
fine = 0 ;
}

void FineCalculator :: setFeeAmount ( int courtFee )
{
feeAmount = courtFee ;
}

int FineCalculator :: getFeeAmount()
{
return feeAmount ;
}

// function that claculates the fine based on speed limit and speed in excess of speed limit
int FineCalculator :: getFine ( int a, int b, int c )
{

int speedLimit = 0 ; // contains the speed limit
int actualSpeed = 0 ; // contains the speed of the vehicle
int zone = 0 ; // contains the zone to calculate infraction amount
int speedFine = 0 ; // speed in excess of variable speed limit
int sfine = 0 ;

do // continue loop until while condition is false
{
int exceedSpeed = speedLimit - actualSpeed ;

if (zone == 1 )
speedFine = (exceedSpeed * 5) + getFeeAmount() ;

if (zone == 2)
speedFine = (exceedSpeed * 6) + getFeeAmount() ;

if (zone == 3 )
speedFine = (exceedSpeed * 7) + getFeeAmount() + 200 ;

return sfine ;

}while ( zone != 0) ;

if ( zone == 0 )
cout <<"Goodbye" << endl; // exit program



system("Pause") ;
} // end class FineCalculator
