COSC 1320 - C++ Programming

Assignment 8 - Payroll Version 2.0
Be sure to read all of Chapters 8 and 9 before starting this assignment. Your job is to update your payroll program for Armadillo Automotive Group to use a C++ class. Each employee class object should hold the master file information for one employee. You can assume that the company has exactly 6 employees. Use an array of employee objects to hold the master file information for the company employees.
Do not put any pay information, including hours worked, in an Employee object. You might want to create a paycheck struct or object to hold pay information for one employee (this could include the hours worked).
DO NOT DO ANY INPUT OR OUTPUT IN ANY CLASS MEMBER FUNCTION.
The employee information and hours worked will come from input files instead of from the keyboard.
Employee class
Create a class to represent the master file information for one employee.
Start with this partial Employee class:
class Employee { private: int id; // employee ID string name; // employee name double hourlyPay; // pay per hour int numDeps; // number of dependents int type; // employee type public: Employee( int initId=0, string initName="", double initHourlyPay=0.0, int initNumDeps=0, int initType=0 ); // Constructor bool set(int newId, string newName, double newHourlyPay, int newNumDeps, int newType); }; Employee::Employee( int initId, string initName, double initHourlyPay, int initNumDeps, int initType ) { bool status = set( initId, initName, initHourlyPay, initNumDeps, initType ); if ( !status ) { id = 0; name = ""; hourlyPay = 0.0; numDeps = 0; type = 0; } } bool Employee::set( int newId, string newName, double newHourlyPay, int newNumDeps, int newType ) { bool status = false; if ( newId > 0 && newHourlyPay > 0 && newNumDeps >= 0 && newType >= 0 && newType <= 1 ) { status = true; id = newId; name = newName; hourlyPay = newHourlyPay; numDeps = newNumDeps; type = newType; } return status; } |
Program input
The program input consists of two files - a master file and a transaction file. Your code must work for the 2 input files provided. You may also want to test your program with other input data.
Master file
The master file has one line of input per employee containing:
This file is ordered by ID number and contains information for 6 emplyees. You can assume that there is exactly one space between the employee ID number and the name. You can also assume that the name occupies 20 columns in the file.
Transaction file (weekly timesheet information)
The transaction file has one line for each employee containing:
This file is also ordered by employee ID number and contains information for the 6 employees. Note: You can assume that the master file and the transaction file have the same number of records, and that the first hours worked is for the first employee, etc. bthe employee IDs in the master file are exactly the same as the employee IDs in the transaction file.
Calculations
Payroll Processing
Notice that when you store employee master information in an Employee object, the set() function does data validation. If any of the employee master information is invalid, the set() function stores default values in the Employee object. In particular, the ID of the employee is set to zero.
When processing the payroll:
Payroll Report
This report should be printed to a file. It should not be printed on the screen. The payroll report should be printed in a tabular (row and column) format with each column clearly labeled. Do not use tabs to align your columns - you need to use the setw() manipulator. Print one line for each transaction that contains:
The final line of the payroll report should print the total gross pay for all employees, and the total net pay for all employees.
