Which part do you want us to fix?

[keskiverto]

i want to make the program ...
fix or write me a code

So many choices:
* You want to make a program
OR
* You want to get a program
OR
* You want to learn to program

Consider the difference between "assignment operator" and "test for equality".
What is an "empty string"?

i want to make a program for my assignment about a hospital doctors information program.

[rizan]

error occurs at if (medical_service=allergies), medical_service below because of that error the program is not built and run

[48T7M4Gy]

You need something like a switch to do what I think you are attempting.

I suggest you look at the tutorials and samples on this site.

http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/control/ under the section called
"another selection statement: switch"

//Hospital doctor information system
#include <iostream>

string welcome_to_Lanka_Hospital;

string allergies;
string cardiology;
string neurology;
string help;
string medical_service;
string medical_service1;
string medical_service2;
string medical_service3;
string medical_service = medical_service1;
string medical_service = medical_service2;
string medical_service = medical_service3;


string medical_service1=allergies;
string medical_service2=cardiology;
string medical_service3=neurology;


cout <<"welcome to lanka hospital:";

cout<<"allergies";

}



system("pause");

uograde but now medical_service appears to have error,
in here

if (medical_service=medical_service1)

[Tupelo Shen]

First, u must use "==", instead of "=" in "if (medical_service=medical_service1)" ; The others are the same as this.
Second , u should learn the using method for the string class.

[48T7M4Gy]

Try building on this.

I suggest you add more arrays to cope with contact numbers, doctor names etc as parallel arrays. Who knows you might get to a stage where a struct or class (even several) becomes part of your learning trajectory.

Good luck with it :)

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main ()
{
    int service_no = 0;
    string welcome  = "Welcome to Lanka hospital.\n Please select medical service: ";
    string service[] = { "Allergies","Cardiology","Neurology","Help" };
    int no_services = sizeof(service)/sizeof(string);
    
    cout << welcome << no_services << " services are available: ";
    while( cin >> service_no and (service_no < 0 or service_no >= no_services))
    {
        cout << "Error, try again.\n";
    }
    
    cout << "You have selected: " << service[service_no] << endl;
    
    
   /* EXCEPT FOR EXTRACTING SOME USEABLE DATA YOU CAN BIN THIS PART
    if (medical_service=medical_service1)
        
    {
