Hi there somebody please help me to create a record file using c++..
The project is similar to a record. Ex. A product(goods) record. Where you can search for a certain product using the code number of the product, add product, remove product and view all the records.
the task is develop a similar application.

The first step is to create a structure or class for the record. After that you can determine the file format. Finally, write each of the functions that add, insert, modify and delete records. Write and test these just one function at a time so that you don't get overwhelmed with the complexity of the program.

hod do i create a structure i mean the code.i didnt know where i should start or what to write..:(

hod do i create a structure i mean the code.i didnt know where i should start or what to write..:(

i will used 3 arrays(price.name of the products,code number)

Here is an example of how to write a structure

What do you propose that lines 64-68 are doing?

You've got a mismatch with your braces, too.

I think you're best off doing some reading or tutorials first, plan out your code with pencil and paper, and then do the coding.

I'm sure std map does all that for you. If you need duplicates, use std multi map.

what do you mean??

Which part was unclear?

Lines 64-68 don't do anything, it's technically a valid statement when you write "0;", but why would you?

The braces that you have in the code don't match up, so an opening brace "{" has to match a closing brace "}" somewhere.

There's no ambiguity in the last part. It's not a mean sentiment, I'm just being truthful with you, you are missing fundamental concepts that need to be learned or re-learned.
