Question

I need to create a C++ program to simulate a Round Robin Tournament.

For example: if a user enters 4, a 4 team tournament would output:

1 2 3 4

2 1 4 3

3 4 1 2

4 3 2 1

My goal is to create this program using a two dimentional array, however I am unsure how to go about doing initializing everything. How do I write a constructor for this? The following is the class declaration I must use, things can be added, but nothing can be removed from it.

class Scheduler
{
public:
Scheduler(); // default constructor
Scheduler(int ini_teams); // constructor
// generate the schedule for the number of team = teams
void generateSchedule();

// display the table content of the schedule for each team
void print();
// destructor
~Scheduler();
int check();
// more member functions here ...
private:
int teams; // the number of teams to be scheduled
int** Arrange;
// the two dimensional vector to represent the
// scheduling table for each team
};

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

An 8 team tournament would output:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
2 1 4 3 6 5 8 7
3 4 1 2 7 8 5 6
4 3 2 1 8 7 6 5
5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4
6 5 8 7 2 1 4 3
7 8 5 6 3 4 1 2
8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

The schedule for 16 teams:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
2 1 4 3 6 5 8 7 10 9 12 11 14 13 16 15
3 4 1 2 7 8 5 6 11 12 9 10 15 16 13 14
4 3 2 1 8 7 6 5 12 11 10 9 16 15 14 13
5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 13 14 15 16 9 10 11 12
6 5 8 7 2 1 4 3 14 13 16 15 10 9 12 11
7 8 5 6 3 4 1 2 15 16 13 14 11 12 9 10
8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9
9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
10 9 12 11 14 13 16 15 2 1 4 3 6 5 8 7
11 12 9 10 15 16 13 14 3 4 1 2 7 8 5 6
12 11 10 9 16 15 14 13 4 3 2 1 8 7 6 5
13 14 15 16 9 10 11 12 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4
14 13 16 15 10 9 12 11 6 5 8 7 2 1 4 3
15 16 13 14 11 12 9 10 7 8 5 6 3 4 1 2
16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
