Homework SourseDesign and implement a Course object that models courses off
Design and implement a Course object that models courses offered at NAU. Courses should be initialized with a short name (e.g., CS126), a number of credits, a start time, and an end time. Include a method that will return True if two course times overlap, and False if they do not.
Solution
class Course
{
int credits;
int sH; //Start time hours part
int sM; // Start time minutes part
int eH; // End time hours part
int eM; // End time minutes part
Course(int c=0, sH=0, sM=0, eH=0, eM=0)
{
this.credits = c;
this.sH = sH;
this.sM = sM;
this.eH = eH;
this.M = eM;
}
bool overlap(Course c1, Course c2)
{
int s1,s2,e1,e2;
s1 = c1.sH*100+c2.sM; //concatenate hours and minutes
e1 = c1.eH*100+c1.eM;
s2 = c2.sH*100+c2.sM;
e2 = c2.eH*100+c2.eM;
if(s1 <= s2) //If c1 starts before c2
{
if(s2 <= e1)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
else
{
if(s1 <= e2)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
}
};
int main()
{
Course courses;
Course CS126(10, 9, 45, 10, 45); // object initialized - CS126- 10 credits – 9:45 to 10:45
Course CS127(12, 10, 00, 11, 15);
bool result = courses.overlap(CS126, CS127);
}
