Question

Heres what I have to do I have to write a program that asks theuser what hotel suite they want which would then show theirselection along with the price

this is the code:

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

int main()
{
   const int SZ = 5;
   const char QUIT = 'z';
   char answers[SZ] = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'};
   double price[SZ] = {149.95, 215.66, 239.77, 308.11,500.99};
   string suite[] = {"Alyse", "Botanical". "Crimson",
       "Darlton", "Edwardian"};
   char selection;
   int x;
   int flag;
   cout << "Enter your choice of our hotel suites"<< endl;
   for(x = 0; x < SZ; ++x){
      cout << answers[x] << "for the " << suite[x] << " suite" << endl;
   cout << "Enter " << QUIT << " toquit ";
   cin << selection;}
   while(selection != QUIT)
   {
      flag = 0;
      for(x = 0; x < SZ ; ++x)
      if(selection == answers[x])
      {
         cout <<"Price per night for the " << suite[x] <<
           " is$" << price[x] << endl;
   flag = 0;
      }
      if(flag = 0)
      cout << "Sorry - invalid selection"<< endl;
      cout << "Enter next selectionor " << QUIT << " to quit ";
      cin >> selection
   }
   return 0;
}

notice the flag variable which would issue a message if a wronghotel has been picked

i think the errors are pure syntax errors but I cannot find themand as I changed the code I either crashed it or got a never endingloop

please help and if possible keep the code as it is or close toit

Explanation / Answer

here you go man, you had a few stupid syntax errors such as a .instead of a comma when you declared suite, also when you iteratethrough your for loops you need to go to SZ-1 not SZ because anarrays elements are 0-SZ-1. array[1] is actually the second elementof the array. You also has a few errors such as some miss matched{} and you needed to add 1 to flag each time through the for loopand if flag == 4you broadcast that the choice was invalid. One final error was that you uses if (flag = 0), which should be ==not =, as = assigns a value to something while == checks if theyare the same. and 0 is supposed to be 4 as a mentioned earlier.Other than that it was a solid program and it works fine for me. Ifyou have any questions feel free to ask. #include #include using namespace std; int main() {    const int SZ = 5;    const char QUIT = 'z';    char answers[SZ] = {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'};    double price[SZ] = {149.95, 215.66, 239.77, 308.11,500.99};    string suite[SZ] = {"Alyse", "Botanical", "Crimson","Darlton", "Edwardian"};    char selection;    int x;    int flag;    cout
