Question

(C++) Patients required to take many kinds of medication often have difficulty in remembering when to take their medicine. Given the following set of medications, write a function that prints an hourly table indicating what medication to take at any given hour. Use a counter variable clock to go through a 24-hour day. Print the table based on the following prescriptions:
Medication Frequency

Iron pill 0800, 1200, 1800

Antibiotic Every 4 hours starting at 0400

Aspirin 0800, 2100

Decongestant 1100, 2000

Answer 1

Here You Goooo....

#include <ctime>

#include<cstdio>

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

void printTotalTable(void);

int getPresentHour() // to get the present hour

{

time_t now = time(0);

// convert now to string form

char* dt = ctime(&now);//gives total date and time. but we need only present hour

string presentTime=dt;

int i=0;

// extracting the hour from the whole date and time

while(presentTime[i]!=':')

{

i++;

}

char temp[3];

temp[0]=presentTime[i-2];

temp[1]=presentTime[i-1];

int t = (temp[0]-'0')*10+(temp[1]-'0');//here we are

return t;

}

struct table

{

string medicine;//name of the medicine

int frequency[24];// which which ours it has to taken.may be some medicines have to take per every hour that's why 24;

};

struct table tb[3];// as of now I'm taking predefined medicines and hours

void initializeTable(void)

{

tb[0].medicine="paracetamol";

tb[0].frequency[0]=10;

tb[0].frequency[1]=13;

tb[1].medicine="Aspirin";

tb[1].frequency[0]=11;

tb[1].frequency[1]=12;

tb[2].medicine="Antibiotic";

tb[2].frequency[0]=10;

tb[2].frequency[1]=19;

}

void printTotalTable(void) // to see the total table and it's timings

{

int i=0,j=0;

cout<<"Medication\t\t"<<"Frequency"<<endl<<endl;

for (i=0;i<3;i++)

{

cout<<tb[i].medicine<<"\t\t";

for (j=0;tb[i].frequency[j];j++)

{

}

cout<<endl<<endl;

}

void check()// to see which medicine has to take at present hour

{

//cout<<getPresentHour();

int ph = getPresentHour(),i=0,j=0;

cout<<"Medication\t\t"<<"Frequency"<<endl<<endl;

for (i=0;i<3;i++)

{

j=0;

for (j=0;tb[i].frequency[j];j++)

{

if (tb[i].frequency[j]==ph)//if the medicine's hour is matched to present hour then -->

{

cout<<tb[i].medicine<<"\t\t"<<tb[i].frequency[j]<<":00";

break;

}

}

cout<<endl;

}

cout<<endl<<endl;

}

void menu()

{

cout<<"1.Print Total Table\n2.Print Present Medication\n3.Exit"<<endl;

}

int main()

{

initializeTable();//initializing the medicines and which hours they has to taken , predefining

int opt;

do

{

menu();

cout<<"Choose Your Option : ";

cin>>opt;

switch(opt)

{

case 1:

printTotalTable();

break;

case 2:

check();

break;

case 3:

break;

default :

cout<<"invalid Option!";

break;

}

}

while(opt!=3);

return 0;
