Intro to Structures and Classes

[LiverpoolFTW]

Hey, so i am having some issues with this problem i was given. I understand what they want but i dont clearly understand the syntax and format that this must be in... any help is appreciated. I have some code written down but its just stuff i put down there, i am almost confusing myself with what i have so far. Any ideas?

Assignment:
https://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/ittc/EECS168:Homework6

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

struct pokemon
{
	string name;
	int hits, tricks, blocks, wins;
	bool alive;
}

class arena
{
public:
	void add_pokemon (pokemon a, string name, int hits, int tricks, int blocks, int wins);
	void print roster (pokemon a, string name, int hits, int tricks, int blocks, int wins);
	void battle (pokemon a, string name, int hits, int tricks, int blocks, int wins);
private:
	void create pokemon (pokemon a, string &name, int &hits, int &tricks, int &blocks, int &wins);
	void find_pokemon;
	void fight;
};

int main ()
{
	int i = 0;
	pokemon a[100];
	do {
		cout << "Welcome to pokemon battle! Please choose an option.\n";
		cout << "1. Add Pokemon\n";
		cout << "2. Print Roster\n";
		cout << "3. Battle\n";
		cout << "0. Exit\n";
		
		switch (choice)
		{
			case 1:
				create_pokemon();
			case 2:
				print_roster();
			case 3:
				battle();
		}
	}while (choice != 0)
}

void arena::add_pokemon (string &name, int &hits, int &tricks, int &blocks, int &wins)
{
	cout << "What is the name of the new pokemon?\n";
	cin >> name;
	find_pokemon (name);
	while (find_pokemon)
		cout << 
}

Hi There,

Faulty code:

switch (choice)
		{
			case 1:
				create_pokemon();
			case 2:
				print_roster();
			case 3:
				battle();
		}

You can't call these functions without first creating an Arena object and using it to call them.

After taking a look at your assignment, it's well explained there. Your Pokemon data structure as you have it is ok. For the Arena class, i suggest, you read the instructions carefully and find out what the private variables are first, and how you can manipulate them from the instructions presented for the functions.

I see what you mean about syntax. Labels in C++ cannot contain spaces. So you can't have a method called print roster, you might want to use print_roster instead. The same goes for create pokemon.

Add Pokemon adds a new entry and reports if you're adding a duplicate, so it must keep a record of what's been added.

Print Roster displays the list of what's been added.
