Virtual Functions C++


Problem Statement :


This problem is to get you familiar with virtual functions. Create three classes Person, Professor and Student. The class Person should have data members name and age. The classes Professor and Student should inherit from the class Person.

The class Professor should have two integer members: publications and cur_id. There will be two member functions: getdata and putdata. The function getdata should get the input from the user: the name, age and publications of the professor. The function putdata should print the name, age, publications and the cur_id of the professor.

The class Student should have two data members: marks, which is an array of size 6 and cur_id. It has two member functions: getdata and putdata. The function getdata should get the input from the user: the name, age, and the marks of the student in 6 subjects. The function putdata should print the name, age, sum of the marks and the cur_id of the student.

For each object being created of the Professor or the Student class, sequential id's should be assigned to them starting from 1. 

Solve this problem using virtual functions, constructors and static variables. You can create more data members if you want.

Note: Expand the main function to look at how the input is being handled.

Input Format

The first line of input contains the number of objects that are being created. If the first line of input for each object is 1, it means that the object being created is of the Professor class, you will have to input the name, age and publications of the professor.

If the first line of input for each object is 2, it means that the object is of the Student class, you will have to input the name, age and the marks of the student in 6 subjects.

Constraints 

  1 <= age <= 80
  1 <= publicatons <= 1000
  0 <= marks <= 100 , where marks is the marks of the student in each subject.

Output Format

There are two types of output depending on the object.

If the object is of type Professor, print the space separated name, age, publications and id on a new line.

If the object is of the Student class, print the space separated name, age, the sum of the marks in 6 subjects and id on a new line.

                            Solution in C :

class Person {
protected:
    string name;
    int age;
public:
    static int prof_id;
    static int stud_id;
    virtual void getdata()=0;
    virtual void putdata()=0;
};

int Person::prof_id = 1;
int Person::stud_id = 1;

class Student : public Person{
public:
    int marks[6];
    int cur_id;
    Student() {
        cur_id = stud_id++;
    }
    void getdata() {
        cin >> name >> age;
        for(int i = 0; i < 6; ++i) cin >> marks[i];
    }
    void putdata() {
        int sum = 0;
        for(int i = 0; i < 6; ++i) sum += marks[i];
        cout << name << ' ' << age << ' ' << sum << ' ' << cur_id << endl;
    }
};

class Professor : public Person{
public:
    Professor() {
        cur_id = prof_id++;
    }
    int publications;
    int cur_id;
    void getdata() {
        cin >> name >> age >> publications;
    }
    void putdata() {
        cout << name << ' ' << age << ' ' << publications << ' ' << cur_id << endl;
    }
};

Find the Running Median

The median of a set of integers is the midpoint value of the data set for which an equal number of integers are less than and greater than the value. To find the median, you must first sort your set of integers in non-decreasing order, then: If your set contains an odd number of elements, the median is the middle element of the sorted sample. In the sorted set { 1, 2, 3 } , 2 is the median.

Minimum Average Waiting Time

Tieu owns a pizza restaurant and he manages it in his own way. While in a normal restaurant, a customer is served by following the first-come, first-served rule, Tieu simply minimizes the average waiting time of his customers. So he gets to decide who is served first, regardless of how sooner or later a person comes. Different kinds of pizzas take different amounts of time to cook. Also, once h

Super Maximum Cost Queries

Victoria has a tree, T , consisting of N nodes numbered from 1 to N. Each edge from node Ui to Vi in tree T has an integer weight, Wi. Let's define the cost, C, of a path from some node X to some other node Y as the maximum weight ( W ) for any edge in the unique path from node X to Y node . Victoria wants your help processing Q queries on tree T, where each query contains 2 integers, L and
