does anybody some code for this

[carl bloc]

Have this much done but need help with this bit of code:

allow user to modify existing draw data. I think I need a counter to
give week numbers so the user can select a week number rather than a
date.

I need to view data for a selected week given the week number or date.

need some controls on not allowing the ball number to go >49 or <0 and
no duplicates.

the date needs some work on so the user can only enter numbers not
letters.

any help would be great.

[Karl Heinz Buchegger]

Have this much done but need help with this bit of code:

Please be more specific. What help? What are your problems in specific?

allow user to modify existing draw data. I think I need a counter to
give week numbers so the user can select a week number rather than a
date.

Well. If you currently are unable to calculate the week number from a given
date then yes, storing a week number would solve your problem. But calculating
it from the date is more elegant. How to calculate it? Take paper, pencil
and try to figure out: Which week of the year holds the 25. Mai 2004.
If youcan answer that with only paper and pencil (and the knowledge
of eg. that the 1. January 1980 was a Tusday) you can start writing
a program which does the same thing as you did on paper. Hint: you could
eg count how many days have elapses since 1. January 1980, divide that
number by 7, ...

I need to view data for a selected week given the week number or date.

Should not be a big problem, once you have the number of the week.

need some controls on not allowing the ball number to go >49 or <0 and
no duplicates.

Where is the problem?

if( ball1int < 0 || ball1int > 49 )
cout << "This is an invalid input. 0 to 49 only\n";

if( ball1int == ball2int ||
ball1int == ball3int ||
ball1int == ball4int ||
ball1int == ball5int ||
ball1int == ball6int ||
ball1int == ball7int )
cout << "You entered a duplicate value for ball 1\n";

You probably will want to enclose the whole ball reading sequence
into a loop, which repeats until a valid set of ball numbers is entered.


bool Valid;

do {
Valid = true; // assume the input will be valid.

// ask user for numbers

// check numbers and set flag 'Valid' to false if the assumption
// of valid input doesn't hold
if( ball1int < 0 || ball1int > 49 ) {
cout << "This is an invalid input for ball 1. 0 to 49 only\n";
Valid = false;
}

....

} until( Valid );

You might also want to enhance this to give the user a chance to cancel
the whole process. But this is up to you.
You might also want to divide the whole thing into functions to make
it better readable. But the principle stays the same: Use a loop
to let the user repeat the input until the input is valid.

the date needs some work on so the user can only enter numbers not
letters.

Turn that around:
Let the user enter characters (eg. as a string) and figure out if this
string can be converted into a number.
The point is: You can't hinder the user to enter letters. Your program
gets control on what has entered only after the user has entered it. But
of course you can react gracefully to it.
There are 2 strategies in C++ to deal with that:
either let the stream operations do the detection and clear up the stream
error state and discard all pending characters or read as string and convert
on your own.
See this newsgroup and search for posts entitled: 'how to convert from string
to number' or something similar. This topic comes up at least 4 times a week.
