Basic Strcmp Problem
write a program using standard string functions that accepts a price of an item and display its coded value. The base of the key is:
X C O M P U T E R S
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
sample input/output:
Enter Price: 489.50
Coded Value: PRS.UX
how to make it in c++.. pls need an asap answer. and some basic codes only please. thankyou.

We don't do homework assignments.
Make a stab at it and we'll try to help.
I don't think you'll need strcmp for this.
Just an array to hold the letters, a loop and some arithmetic.

As AbstractionAnon mentioned, we won't solve this for you, as per the forum rules.
However, to get you started, here's some tips:
The letters (XCOMPUTERS) can be stored in an array.
Arrays are zero-indexed, so code[0] will be X, code[1] will be C, and so on.
All you need to do when you have that array is get every digit separately, for which you can use a function that gets a single character from the input.
That's almost giving you the solution, so I won't give any more information until you show us some code.
If you still struggle, post the code and we'll be happy to help you along.
All the best,
