I did in my code above....
ocKiNOsIi (84)
is it on
L58-L62

if not could you point me to what line its on? I want to look at it and try to understand
it for future reference.


just confused because of this part of the instructions
constructor #2 The new fruit's name, amount, weight, etc. are arguments.
Calls the individual setters (below) to validate and set the
variable.

set_name Accept a string argument and copies it into the name variable
set_amount Accepts an int argument and copies it into amount variable, but ONLY if >= 0
set_weight Accept a float argument and copies it into the weight variable if valid
set_price Accepts a double argument and copies it into the price, if reasonable


Retrieval of data is done with getters:

Member Function/Method Description 

get_name Returns the value in name

get_amount Returns the value of rooms

get_weight Returns the value of square_feet

get_prie Returns the list_price of the house




Provide two constructors: one for a “default” object, and one for an object where all the initial
values are provided. Provide setters that validate new values and changes data members if OK.
Provide getters. One of the getters should be a show / display / print / cout getter that shows
all information about the object. Another getter should show some combination of data members,
such as: get_price_per_sqft, which performs a calculation and then produces a result:
get_price_per_sqft() returns list_price / square_feet.


After the class is working, create at least 5 different, separate instances of the class,
such as: fruit1, fruit2, ... fruit5. Create 3 instances with all valid data and 2 instances
with some (attempted) invalid data. .
(apple, orange, banana, grapes, avocado)


Setters should NOT change existing valid member values to invalid values. If given
invalid data in a setter, reject it. Do not change the value.

Modify the program to ask: "How many objects do you want?". Loop as many times specified
by the user (5 is enough for testing) to create that many objects. You can use 5 individual
variables, or you can use an array or vector. Submit one .cpp file. Do not create the class
in a separate file.

¿why do you have Fruit and Fruit_t?
¿what's your current problem with that wall of text?
ocKiNOsIi (84)
fruit_t is for my 1st constructor (default with no parameters)
Ganado (6784)
You do not need two classes with essentially the same data.
1
2
 
    Fruit() {} // this is your default constructor
    Fruit(const std::string& z, int qty, double wgt, float prc, bool isp) // this is a non-default constructor


PS: 'z' is a bad name for a variable. Also, abbreviations like 'prc' and 'isp' are not obvious and should be expanded more.

What do you think?
MikeyBoy (5631)
Is there a reason your constructor uses an initialiser list to set some data members, and setter methods to set other?

Why the inconsististency?
ocKiNOsIi (84)
no specific reason. I'm using YouTube videos and the feedback from here to build
this code. I guess it would be best to only use setter methods


going to edit my code then I will post again

No destructor?
Ganado (6784)
I'd say there's no point in a destructor, at least for this exercise.
ocKiNOsIi (84)
just looked over the instructions..theres no mention of adding a destructor.
ocKiNOsIi (84)
inside main how would I return my int, double, float, and bool?

I tried using this same format but got errors

Fruit fruit1;
fruit1.set_Name("Apple");
cout << fruit1.get_Name();

Name: Banana   Quantity: 0

Name: Grapes   Quantity: 0

This ends the class design, implementation, test program. Goodbye!


Obviously the quantity displayed is 0 as this isn't set - just the name.

what do I need to change here to set the quantity to a custom int, custom weight, custom price, custom bool option?

Well for the .set_xxx() functions you need to provide the value to set. eg

 
 
fruit1.set_Quantity(5);


sets the quantity of fruit1 to 5.
ocKiNOsIi (84)
I was trying that and it wasn't working but I found my error. I was using variables under 10 and I had it set as q >= 10 instead of q <= 10

1) How can I go to my next step? it says..
Modify the program to ask: "How many objects do you want?". Loop as many times specified by the user (5 is enough for testing) to create that many objects. You can use 5 individual variables, or you can use an array or vector.

not sure where to place the counter


2) what can I change on L23 to set a limit form 0-10.
if I put a negative number for the quantity it should set it to the default which is 0 but in this code it just takes on the negative number

This doesn't allow values below 0 but it allows any number when I want the limit to be set so the highest number possible is 10.
void set_Quantity(int q) { if (q >= 0) quantity = q; }
auto get_Quantity() const { return quantity; }

This doesn't allow negative values and only allows values above 10
void set_Quantity(int q) { if (q <= 10) quantity = q; }
auto get_Quantity() const { return quantity; }

A few small changes whereby you can use functions to save a lot of repetition and take advantage of the several ways to construct a fruit object and retrieve the details and using <iomanip> to setout columns - once and for all cases

This program creates at least 5 separate, co-existing instances of a
custom designed object. Information about each object is displayed.
Each constructor, setter and getter is tested at least once.

Name: Apple     Quantity:   4 Weight: 4.56 Price: $4   Did you purchase? true     
Name: Orange    Quantity:   7 Weight: 2.65 Price: $5   Did you purchase? true     
Name: Negative  Quantity:   0 Weight: 2.65 Price: $5   Did you purchase? true     

And then it can be done this way ...
Name: Banana   Quantity: 4   Weight: 2.34   Price: $2   Did you purchase?: true
Name: Avocado  Quantity: 0   Weight: 2.59   Price: $6   Did you purchase?: true
Name: Grape    Quantity: 6   Weight: 2.59   Price: $6   Did you purchase?: false

This ends the class design, implementation, test program. Goodbye!

Now for the object/memory cleanup via the destructor
Fruit object deleted. 
Fruit object deleted. 
Fruit object deleted. 
Fruit object deleted. 
Fruit object deleted. 
Fruit object deleted. 
Program ended with exit code: 0

@againtry thank you that's really helpful. I was starting to think my code was getting a bit long


Is there a way to solve this problem? Is setting a 0-10 limit possible?


2) what can I change on L28 to set a limit form 0-10.
if I put a negative number for the quantity it should set it to the default which is 0 but in this code it just takes on the negative number

This doesn't allow values below 0 but it allows any number when I want the limit to be set so the highest number possible is 10.
void set_Quantity(int q) { if (q >= 0) quantity = q; }
auto get_Quantity() const { return quantity; }

This doesn't allow negative values and only allows values above 10
void set_Quantity(int q) { if (q <= 10) quantity = q; }
auto get_Quantity() const { return quantity; }

here is the updated code:
I did remove the destructor since there is no mention of adding one in the instructions

void set_Quantity(int q) { if (q >= 0) quantity = q; }

You had it almost right. All you need is a compound (or) condition.

void set_Quantity(int q) 
{	if (q < 0 || q > 10)
        {   //	Perhaps emit an error message
    	   quantity = 0;
        }
        else
        {   //	within range
            quantity = q;
        }
}


If you want to get fancy (terse), you can use the ternary operator: 
 
 
    quantity = (q < 0 || q > 10) ? 0 : q;
