This program will calculate average velocity for a fine sports car traveling on the autobahn.  Your output should look like this…

 

Average Velocity Calculation   Car type: Mitsubishi 3000gt VR4 Starting milepost: 321 Elapsed time: 2 hr 15 min 36 sec End milepost: 458 Distanced traveled 137 miles in 2 hr 25 min 36 sec.   Average velocity: 60.6195 mph

 

Input information will be…

• car_type                     (use char car_type[81] and cin.get(car_type, 80);
• start_milpst                (use integer input only)
• end_milpst                 ( “         “           “           “  )
• hr                                 ( “         “           “           “  )
• min                              ( “         “           “           “  )
• sec                              ( “         “           “           “  )

 

Calculations will determine…

• distance                     (end minus start)
• decimal_time             (convert 3 time values to a single decimal number)
• average_velocity       (velocity = distance/elapsed time)

 

Use a #define to get the title

Format the velocity using the setw() and setprecision()

            Don’t forget    cout.setf(ios::fixed, ios::floatfield);

                                    cout.setf(ios::showpoint); and iomanip.h
