Hi,

I have to develop a C++ programme for airplane booking company where I have a one plane and 42 seats in the plane
There are 1st class and 2nd class and somking and nonsmoking areas.

this is a assignment I have to do.

I dont need any code but I want to discuss about the background of the programme and start the coding.

problem is I want to know what is the best data storing mechanism for the seat booking in the programme.

I think it is useless to go for database connecting instead using some data stuctures.

please be king enought give me a hint.

thanks in advance,
menukadevinda

If I were you I would use a class called seat and make a linked list.

[menukadevinda]

can you explain bit more . reasoning is nice then I can do this with a better understanding

thx

Well Insertion and deletion are quite easy and you have as much space as you can possibly want. Within the class you can either have bool of first class second class etc. or maybe even use a int to set the class for example use 1 for 1st class, 2 for 2nd class and you can have a bool for smoking allowed or not. If you have a class or a structure you can have many multiple instance of the pointer pointing to a particular plane so you can have multiple planes.

first I want to thank you for the reply.

Here is what I feel, in the assignment they havent tell multiple planes but one plane. Therefore, I think this can be done very easily with a multidimentional array. If a customer select a seat we can set a letter to that seat then we can select rest of the balance seats. appart from that we dont have to delete customers just change the seat is given number.

therefore, I think this can be done very simply.

what do we think about my idea.


thanks.

This is your assignment, there are quite a few different ways to accomplish this, so try your method. If you have problems then post the code causing the problems and ask specific questions about the posted code.

If you can't ask for help online, don't post your code at all. However, once you post something relevant to the topic, don't remove it. I've gone ahead and removed your editing ability because of this.

Topic closed.
