Prblem: Implement a base class Account and derived classes Savings and Checking. In the base class,supply member functions deposit(), withdraw(), and print() which prints out the ownerand balance. Create constructors that take a string (for the owner's name) and a double for the initialbalance. All methods should return void.
I also need to implement a daily_interest()but i didnt do it
My code did compile right, but it did not give the right output

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

const int DAYS_PER_MONTH = 30;

///////////// Account CLASS //////////////////////////
class Account
{
public:
    Account(double amount);
    void deposit(double amount);
    void withdraw(double amount);
    void print();
    void daily_interest();
//private:
    double balance;
};
Account::Account(double amount)
{
    balance = amount;
}
void Account::deposit(double amount)
{
    balance += amount;
}
void Account::withdraw(double amount)
{
    balance -= amount;
}
void Account::print()
{
    cout << balance;
}
void Account::daily_interest()
{}
///////////// Savings CLASS //////////////////////////
class Savings : public Account
{
public:
    Savings(double balance);
    double get_balance() const;
private:
    double s_balance;
};
Savings::Savings(double balance)
    : Account(balance)
{
    s_balance = balance;
}
double Savings::get_balance() const
{
    return s_balance;
}
///////////// Checking CLASS //////////////////////////
class Checking : public Account
{
public:
    Checking(double balance);
    double get_balance() const;
private:
    double c_balance;
};
Checking::Checking(double balance)
    : Account(balance)
{
     c_balance = balance;
}
double Checking::get_balance() const 

{
    return c_balance;
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
int main()
{
    Checking c = Checking(1000.0);
    Savings s = Savings(1000.0);
    for (int i = 1; i <= DAYS_PER_MONTH; i++)
    {
        c.deposit(i * 5);
        c.withdraw(i * 2);
        s.deposit(i * 5);
        s.withdraw(i * 2);
        //c.daily_interest();
        //s.daily_interest();
        if (i % 10 == 0)
        {
            cout << "day " << i << "\n";
            cout << "Checking balance: " << c.get_balance() << "\n";
            cout << "Savings balance: " << s.get_balance() << "\n";
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

What is the output supposed to be? What is the current output?

the outputs are suppose to be different but what i got out were all the same
i think my deposit and withdraw are not working

I made the class definition for the checking and saving, but i don't know how to do the inheritance... =.=

class Savings
{
public:
    Savings(double balance);
    double get_balance() const;
    void deposit(double amount);
    void withdraw(double amount);
    void print() const;
    void daily_interest();
private:
    double s_balance;
};
Savings::Savings(double balance)
{
    s_balance = balance;
}
double Savings::get_balance() const
{
    return s_balance;
}
void Savings::deposit(double amount)
{
    s_balance += amount;
}
void Savings::withdraw(double amount)
{
    s_balance -= amount;
}
void Savings::print() const
{
    cout << s_balance;
}
void Savings::daily_interest()
{
    s_balance += s_balance*(0.06/DAYS_PER_MONTH);
}
///////////// Checking CLASS //////////////////////////
class Checking
{
public:
    Checking(double balance);
    double get_balance() const;
    void deposit(double amount);
    void withdraw(double amount);
    void print() const;
    void daily_interest();
private:
    double c_balance;
};
Checking::Checking(double balance)
{
    c_balance = balance;
}
double Checking::get_balance() const
{
    return c_balance;
}
void Checking::deposit(double amount)
{
    c_balance += amount;
}
void Checking::withdraw(double amount)
{
    c_balance -= amount;
}
void Checking::print() const
{
    cout << c_balance;
}
void Checking::daily_interest()
{
    double over = c_balance - 1000;
    c_balance += over*(0.03/30);
}

First off, what class do you want to inherit? Since there is no mention of a third class, it's hard to guess what class you want to introduce. Inheritance is easy. Let's say I am introducing a ChildSavings class which will inherit from the Saving class, the code would just be as follows.

class ChildSavings : public Savings   // this is how you introduce inheritance
{
   // add class methods and properties here
}

The ChildSavings class will have all the properties and methods of its parent class. Hope this is what you're looking for.
