Answer to Question #216057 in C++ for Hemambar

Question

create a structure called print to store x and y co-ordinate values write functions to get co-ordinate values .calculate the distance between two points in to display the result .write a main program to get the input from the user repeatedly and calculate the distance between every successive points and then find the total distance also

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


struct point{
	float x;
	float y;
};




float calculateDistance(point point1,point point2){
	return sqrt(pow((point2.x-point1.x),2)+pow((point2.y-point1.y),2)); 
}


int main() {
	struct point points[100];
	int numberPoints=0;
	float totalDistance=0;
	while(numberPoints<2){
		cout<<"Enter number of points: ";
		cin>>numberPoints;
	}
	for(int i=0;i<numberPoints;i++){
		cout<<"Enter x co-ordinate for point "<<(i+1)<<": ";
		cin>>points[i].x;
		cout<<"Enter y co-ordinate for point "<<(i+1)<<": ";
		cin>>points[i].y;
	}
	cout<<"\n";
	for(int i=0;i<numberPoints-1;i++){
		float distanceSuccessivePoints=calculateDistance(points[i],points[i+1]);
		totalDistance+=distanceSuccessivePoints;
		cout<<"The distance between successive points ("<<points[i].x<<","<<points[i].y<<"), ("<<points[i+1].x<<","<<points[i+1].y<<"): "<<distanceSuccessivePoints<<"\n";
	}
	cout<<"\nThe total distance: "<<totalDistance<<"\n";


	cout<<"\n\n";
	system("pause");
	return 0;
}
