Need Help With C++

The university election will start in few days … they decided to create a system that calculates the total number of votes and decide who won the election instead of counting the votes manually. There are three different groups (Hardee’s, KFC, and Krispy cream) who’ll participate in the election. The university will provide 10 boxes to carry the votes (5 boxes for the boys & 5 for the girls). You’ve been asked to create this system. Your system will read the number of votes for the participated groups from every single box (from a file) and then it should display the following information:

The name of the winning group and the runner up.
The vote difference between the winner and the runner up too.
The number of the voting box who granted the highest number of votes for the first group.
The number of the voting box who granted the highest number of votes for the second group.
The number of the voting box who granted the highest number of votes for the third group.

Still not seeing an actual question here. This is your whole assignment. Is there a specific question to ask, or are you hoping someone just does the whole thing for you?

It's like in MMO games, when someone says "Can I ask a question?" Yes, you just did. Spit it out already.

Or: "Can you help me with a mission?" It's not a meaningful question. Tell people WHICH mission so they know if they want to (or even can) help you.

If you want to ask a C++ question, ask it. Don't beat around the bush.

(Oh, and we know it's for your homework, not "a friend." That's got to be one of the oldest obfuscations in the book.)

Doesn't look hard if she already did that code.
Just replace arrays with std:vector for easy result counting and add few loops in the end for boxes to pick highest count for each group.
Still can't understand what is 'runner up' is that the second place after winner?

well, make a class for a box, give it a function to read from file (i assume the file is just a line for each vote which states the number a single person voted for and you got one file per box - if its different, just adapt the code)

class box
{
map<int32_t, int32_t> groups;

box(const string& fileName)
{
readVotes(fileName);
};

readVotes(const string& fileName);
{
fstream in;
in.open(fileName);
int32_t currentValue;
while (in >> currentValue)
{
groups[currentValue]++;
}
}

then in your main.cpp you just make a vector of boxes:

vector<box> boxes;
boxes.emplace_back(box("votes1.txt"));
...

then you can simply read out your information

did't actually run the code, but as a idea how to approach the problem it should suffice.
