Here is the code that I have been given for an assignment. The modification that I need to make is to allow the program to read 10 sample points and determine which are contained in the plume boundary. I have included the modification that I think is appropriate for the requirement but I just want to check if this looks right. Also any suggestions on how to better accomplish the requirement would be greatly appreciated.

Don't mind the k variable and cout statement in the function
void Boundary_map::read_boundary_pts(). It is just a test to make sure the input file is being read.

Here is my modification. I forgot to add it to my original post. Basically what I did is create a for loop in the main function that would run the entire program ten times allowing the user to enter in ten seperate data points. I think that this will work but what I would like to do is create a way for the user to enter ten data points into an array and then have the program access the array so that it becomes a much smoother functioning program. Any suggestions?

int main()
{
     int i;
     
     for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
     {
     Boundary_map plume_map;
     Probe probe_from_water_sample;

     plume_map.read_boundary_pts();
     plume_map.map_wrap_around();

     probe_from_water_sample.read_sample_pt();

     probe_from_water_sample.check_map_boundary
        (plume_map.get_boundary_pts(),
        plume_map.get_num_boundary_pts());
     }	 
     system("pause");
}
