Homework 3, A Mini Contest

Short Description:

This assignment is worth 40 points.

Goals

• Used vectors to solve several problems.

Formal Description

Please solve these two problems using vectors:

• Word Cloud
  • A vector of classes.
  • This is more of a reading problem than a math problem. The math is not that bad.
  • Name your solution file wordcloud.C or wordcloud.cpp.
  • Even though this has a higher rating, it is a simpler problem (IMHO)
  • You can get into an end of file like problem (but not with input, but with a form of output).
• Fast Food Prizes
  • You want a vector of structs or classes for this one.
  • The struct/class should probably have a vector member.
  • Handle the input then worry about the solution.
  • Name your solution file fastfood.C or fastfood.cpp.

Notes

• You must use vectors in your solution.
• You may use find, sort from the standard algorithm library. (But you might not need them).
• Use the following Makefile
• You would be silly not to do a design for these programs, even though they are short.
• If you need help with an algorithm let me know.
• If you like this type of problem you might consider the programming contest team.
  • On a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is easy and 10 is hard
    • Word Cloud is rated 2.3
    • Fast Food Prizes is rated 2.2
