Question

C++

Currency Conversion: Create a C++ program that can calculate the currency conversion rates for foreign currencies into dollars. (The more currencies that can be converted the better.) Prompt the user to enter the currency she wants to convert and the amount of money she needs converted. This project must be accompanied by a creative GUI design. Introducing API’s, online integration, and a GUI will make the project unique.

Please write a paragraph explaning how your program works above the source code.
