I need help on my C++ assignment using Microsoft Visual C++

Question

Ok, so I don't want you to do my homework for me, but I'm a little lost with this final assignment and need all the help I can get. Learning about programming is tough enough, but doing it online is next to impossible for me... Now, to get to the program, I am going to paste what I have so far. This includes mostly //comments and what I have written so far. If you can help me figure out where all the errors are and how to complete the assignment, I will really appreciate it. Like I said, I don't want you to do my homework for me (it's my final), but any constructive criticism is welcome. This is my final assignment for this class and it is due tomorrow (Sunday before midnight, Arizona time).

This is the assignment:

Examine the following situation:

• Your company, Datamax, Inc., is in the process of automating its payroll systems. Your manager has asked you to create a program that calculates overtime pay for all employees. Your program must take into account the employee’s salary, total hours worked, and hours worked more than 40 in a week, and then provide an output that is useful and easily understood by company management.

• Compile your program utilizing the following background information and the code outline in Appendix D (included in the code section).

• Submit your project as an attachment including the code and the output.

Company Background:

• Three employees: Mark, John, and Mary
• The end user needs to be prompted for three specific pieces of input—name, hours worked, and hourly wage.
• Calculate overtime if input is greater than 40 hours per week.
• Provide six test plans to verify the logic within the program.
• Plan 1 must display the proper information for employee #1 with overtime pay.
• Plan 2 must display the proper information for employee #1 with no overtime pay.
• Plans 3-6 are duplicates of plan 1 and 2 but for the other employees.

Program Requirements:

• Define a base class to use for the entire program.
• The class holds the function calls and the variables related to the overtime pay calculations.
• Define one object per employee. Note there will be three employees.
• Your program must take the objects created and implement calculations based on total salaries, total hours, and the total number of overtime hours. See the Employee Summary Data section of the sample output.

Logic Steps to Complete Your Program:

• Define your base class.
• Define your objects from your base class.
• Prompt for user input, updating your object classes for all three users.
• Implement your overtime pay calculations.
• Display overtime or regular time pay calculations. See the sample output below.
• Implement object calculations by summarizing your employee objects and display the summary information in the example below.

And this is the code:

    // Final_Project.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
    //

    #include "stdafx.h"
    #include <iostream>
    #include <string>
    #include <iomanip>

    using namespace std;

    //
    //CLASS DECLARATION SECTION
    //
    class CEmployee
    { 
    public:
     void ImplementCalculations(string EmployeeName, double hours, double wage);
     void DisplayEmployInformation(void);
     void Addsomethingup (CEmployee, CEmployee, CEmployee);
     string EmployeeName ;
     int hours ;
        int overtime_hours ;
     int iTotal_hours ;
     int iTotal_OvertimeHours ;
     float wage ;
     float basepay ;
     float overtime_pay ;
     float overtime_extra ;
     float iTotal_salaries ;
     float iIndividualSalary ;
    };

    int main()
    { system("cls"); 

     cout << "Welcome to the Employee Pay Center";

    /*

    - base pay = 40 hours times the hourly wage
    - overtime hours = hours worked – 40

    /*

     } // End of the else

    } //End of Primary Function

    void CEmployee::DisplayEmployInformation(); 
    {
    // This function displays all the employee output information.

Answer 1

DON'T use floats for financial data, EVER.

This will get you into all kinds of rounding and precision problems, and you DON'T want them in data that describes money sums. Unless you like getting sued, of course :).

Either use integer types or create a fixed-point type.

Also, don't use system(), if possible. This is inherently non-portable, not to mention being slow and ugly.

Until you fill up more code, this is about all that I can tell you. Good luck!
