Okay what i want to do is:
Code the implementation of a Person class (2 person object are equal if they have the same name)
(b) Code the implementation of a Worker class
(c) The program must read in the name, age and workplace (comma delimited) from the console in to a Worker object and store in a vector.
What i have done so far is:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

class Person
{
public:
	string n;
public:
	Person(string n)
	{
		this->n = n;
	}
	bool operator==(const Person& obj) const;
	Person();

};
bool Person::operator ==(const Person& obj) const
{
	if(obj.n != this->n)
	{
		return false;
	}
	else
	{
		return true;
	}
}
class Worker
{
public:
	void setInfo(string, int, string);
	void getInfo(string&, int&, string&) const;
	Worker(string, int, string);
	Worker();

private:
	string name;
	int age;
	string workPlace;
};

I am completely lost on part b and c i dont know what to do. ANy help gr app. Thanks

Can you point as to where you are stuck because its very difficult to go through the entire code.

I have managed to figure out what i needed i would like to know how would i read a files values into my program that are comma deliminated. Like:
"David",23,"XPlace"
And does it matter if there are spaces when you reading in the information
ANy help greatly appreciated,

Well i got most of everything working with a little work. Like this:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

class Person
{
protected: string o_name;

public:
	Person(string name)
	{
		this->o_name = name;
	}
	bool operator==(const Person& obj) const;
	bool operator!=(const Person& obj) const;
};

bool Person::operator ==(const Person& obj) const
{
	return (obj.o_name == this->o_name);
}
bool Person::operator !=(const Person &obj) const
{
	return (obj.o_name != this->o_name);
}


class Worker: public Person
{
friend ostream& operator<<(ostream&, const Worker &); 
friend istream& operator>>(istream&, Worker &); 

private:
	string workPlace;
	int age;
public:
	Worker(string name, string w_wP, int w_a): Person(name)
	{
		workPlace = w_wP;
		age = w_a;
	}
	string getName() const;
	string getWorkPlace() const;
	int getAge() const;
	void print() const;
};
string Worker::getName() const
{
	return o_name;
}
string Worker::getWorkPlace() const
{
	return workPlace;
}
int Worker::getAge() const
{
	return age;
}
void Worker::print() const
{
	cout << "Name = " << o_name
		<< "; WorkPlace = " << workPlace
		<< "; Age = " << age;
}
ostream& operator<<(ostream& osObject, const Worker& worker) 
{ 
   osObject <<"Name = " << worker.o_name << "; Work Place = " << worker.workPlace << "; Age = " << worker.age; 
   return osObject; 
} 
istream& operator>>(istream& isObject, Worker& worker) 
{ 
   isObject >> worker.o_name >> worker.workPlace >> worker.age; 
   return isObject; 
} 


int main()
{
	string text = "", text1 = "";
	int count = 0;

	ifstream in;
	ofstream out;

	in.open("one.txt");
	out.open("two.txt");
	

	string w_name, w_name2;
	string w_workPlace, w_workPlace2;
	int w_age, w_age2;
	char ch;

	cout << "Enter name, work place and age, comma seperated : ";
	getline(cin, w_name, ',');
	getline(cin, w_workPlace, ',');
	cin >> w_age;

	cin.get(ch);

	cout << "Enter name, work place and age, comma seperated : ";
	getline(cin, w_name2, ',');
	getline(cin, w_workPlace2, ',');
	cin >> w_age2;

	cin.get(ch); 


	Worker w1(w_name, w_workPlace, w_age);
	Worker w2(w_name2, w_workPlace2, w_age2);

	if(w1 == w2)
	{
		cout << "They have the same name" << endl;
	}
	else if(w1 != w2)
	{
		cout << "They do not have the same name" << endl;
	}
	vector<Worker> w;
	w.push_back(w1);
	w.push_back(w2);
	cout << "Size of vector : " << w.size() << endl;
	w1.print();
	cout << endl;
	cout << w1 << endl;
	
	cout << "First element : " << w.front() << endl;
	cout << "Last element : " << w.back() << endl;

	
	in.close();
	out.close();	

	return 0;
}

Does anyone know how i can enter stuff from a file (problem being, the stuff in the folder will be comma deliminated) coz i have to store it in a worker object then store in a vector once i have read it in. ANy help gret appre

[shabbir]

ifstream in;
in.read(buf,Num);
Where buffer is where the content is read and num is the no of bytes read. So if I am getting you correctly this should read it from the file.

I probably missed on this post. If you read it using >> operator. Try using getline.

[SparkyCH]

sorry but i dont understand im new, but how will that read infomration comma sperated it does not work for me

[shabbir]

Why it shouldn't. Here is the sample code

#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream.h>

#define N 100

int main()
{
	char buf[N];

	ifstream in;

	in.open("a.txt");
	in.getline(buf,N);

	cout<<buf << endl;
	
	return 0;
}

[SparkyCH]

no i get that its just i want to use the data to store in an object.
like :
"darrel","xWork",34
Then store darrel xWork and 34 in the object

[shabbir]

After you read it into buf convert it to whatever object you wish.
