Title
Body
I am writing a "Date" class for an assignment and I am having trouble doing one the of the functions. This is the header file for the class. class Date { public: Date(); // Constructor without parameters Date(int m, int d, int y); // Constructor with parameters. // accessors int GetMonth(); // returns the size of the diamond int GetDay(); int GetYear(); // mutators bool Set(int m, int d, int y); bool SetFormat(char f); // standard input and output routines void Input(); void Show(); void Increment(int numDays = 1); int Compare(const Date& d); private: int month, // month variables day, // day variable year; // year variable char format; }; The member function I am trying to make is the int Compare(const Date& d) function. I need this function to compare two Date objects (the calling object and the parameter), and should return: -1 if the calling object comes first chronologically, 0 if the objects are the same date, and 1 if the parameter object comes first chronologically. I have tried doing a simple if statement with the == operator but I get errors. if (d1 == d2) cout << "The dates are the same"; return (0); After the objects are created, the function should be called like this d1.Compare(d2) Thank you in advance!
