Easy C++ Contest!

Hmmm, interesting website.

The home page says nothing. The Machinima page is just videos captured from video games. The film schedule is totally blank, every month, past, present, and future.
The News page is very bloggish and unprofessional, and also mentions that 1) you are an excellent C++ coder; 2) you have a professor--I mean friend--who has a PhD in CS, and 3) you are a full time college student.

Your awards page just lists Games of the Month which has nothing to do with your "company" or the awards your company has received.

Your FAQ page and Affiliates page claims you are either affiliated with or have received sponsorship from several other companies/websites. Many of these "companies" either don't exist or have websites that look like you just registered their domains and put something there.

Your Contacts page lists a GMail address as the main contact and an SBC account for "important stuff only". So your company doesn't even have a mail server. At least when you created your website at freewebs.com you marked it as "business" instead of "personal" to make it look like you were a business. Of course nothing on your website really indicates what your products are or what the prices are.

Oh, and then there's the contest. It's totally out in left field compared to what your "company" does, and your source code looks a LOT like a school project. My guess is you have an ungrad degree and going for either a masters or a PhD, because the project is too complex to be an ungrad project. I'm guessing you have till the 30th to turn in the code for it to count. It was typical at my college for profs to allow students to turn in final projects after final exams.

I will have to hand it to you, though... you sure have gone far to try to fool people into doing your work for you.

Now if I could only figure out what college you are currently attending...

Hmmm.... let me do some digging...

Don't give the OP that much credit. I'm a freshman CS major and I am finishing up my first college level programming (C++) class. I could write this program fairly easily. It doesn't even have advanced class features like sub/supper classes or polymorphism.

This is obviously a homework assignment.

LOL

from the web site:

"The main function will be the same as the previous assignment's, but will have the town call its Operation_Street_Sweeper function."
Haha, oh god - this is just to funny... More so for the fact he keeps coming back to defend himself lol
You could be right. At first glance the assignment seemed a little more complicated than an undergrad project. Typically undergrad projects focus more on reading from file, writing a simple function/value class to hold data, manipulating the data and outputting it with a focus on program structure.

This project seemed to have an imbalance in focus -- it seemed more focused on algorithms than code structure, which is why I assumed grad level.

Nonetheless, you could be right though.

Since OP's website is listed as e-commerce, I wonder if he has a license to operate business from his address b/c looking at google maps it's definitely a residential neighborhood.

I wrote a program very similar to this a few weeks ago for my C++ class. Objects interacting and when a class value equals X than call the destructor. I wrote the program in under an hour.
