Help me with c++ control technique function....

This is my question
Travel Expenses Claim
Write a program that calculates and displays the total travel expenses of a
businessman on a trip. The program should have functions and apply all the
control techniques
that ask for and return the following:
· The total number of days spent on the trip
· The time departure on the first day of the trip, and the time of arrival back
home on the last day of the trip
· The amount of any round-trip airfare
· The amount of any car rentals
· Kilometers driven, if a private vehicle was used. Calculate the vehicle
expense as RM4.00 per km driven
· Parking fees (The company allows up to RM6.00 per day only)
· Taxi fees if any (The company allows up to RM10.00 per day only)
· Conference or seminar registration fees
· Hotel expenses (The company allows up to RM180.00 per night for
lodging)
The program should calculate and display the total expenses incurred by the
businessman and the total allowable expenses for the trip.

}


The above code is working nicely . But , the question states that the code need to include application of "CONTROL TECHNIQUE" . Can anyone help me on how to do it....???

I think by control techniques they mean make sure that stuff like

Taxi fees if any (The company allows up to RM10.00 per day only)


Is checked by your program so that users cannot enter values higher than the ones specified.

That's my interpretation... maybe someone else has a different idea.

All the best,
