Question

This problem needs to be completed in C++ and be able to run in Visual Studio 2012 or later. It cannot use any #include statements that end in .h, such as conio.h, stdlib.h, etc. PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER UNLESS YOU CAN COMPLETE ALL PARTS OF THE PROBLEM!

(1) Create a Fraction class with three private data fields for whole number, numerator, and denominator. Also create a constant static public field to hold the symbol that separates a numerator and denominator when a Fraction is displayed -- the slash symbol ("/").

(2) Create a public enterFractionValue() function that prompts the user to enter values for the fraction. Do not allow the user to enter a value of 0 for the denominator of any Fraction. Continue to prompt the user for a denominator value until a valid one is entered.

(3) Create a public reduceFraction() function that reduces a Fraction to proper form. For example, a Fraction with the value 0 2/6 would be reduced to 0 1/3 and a Fraciton with the value 4 18/4 would be reduced to 8 1/2.

(4) Create a public displayFraciton() function that displays the Fraction with whole number, numerator, slash symbol ("/") and denominator.

(5) Add any other functions to the Fraction class that might be useful.

(6) Create a main() function that declares a Fraction object, and continues to get Fraction values from the user until the user enters a Fraction with value 0 (BOTH the whole numer and numerator are 0). For EACH fraction that the user has entered, display the Fraction, reduce the Fraction, and display the Fraction again.

Explanation / Answer

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Fraction{
public:
   int wholeNumber;
   int numerator;
   int denominator;
   static const char seperator = '/';
   void enterFractionValue();
   void reduceFraction();
   void displayFraction();
};

void Fraction::enterFractionValue(){
   cout << "Whole Number: ";
   cin >> wholeNumber;
   cout << "Numerator: ";
   cin >> numerator;
   do{
       cout << "Denominator: ";
       cin >> denominator;
   } while (denominator == 0);
}

void Fraction::reduceFraction(){
   if (numerator > denominator){
       wholeNumber += (numerator / denominator);
       numerator %= denominator;
   }
   int min = numerator;
   for (int i = 2; i <= min; ++i){
       while ((numerator % i == 0) && (denominator % i == 0)){
           numerator /= i;
           denominator /= i;
       }
   }
}

void Fraction::displayFraction(){
   cout << wholeNumber << " " << numerator << seperator << denominator << endl;
}

int main(){
   Fraction f;
   while (true){
       f.enterFractionValue();
       if (f.numerator == 0 && f.wholeNumber == 0){
           cout << "Exiting..." << endl;
           break;
       }
       f.displayFraction();
       f.reduceFraction();
       f.displayFraction();
   }
   return 0;
}
