Your group (2 or 3 students) is to develop a "cash register" class and implementation to simulate the use of a cash ONLY register.

• Items being purchased can range from $ 0.01 to $19.99
• Total for a single purchase cannot exceed $119.99
• Details on items for purchase will be provided later
• More than one of an item can be purchased
• The store only accepts cash and never carries anything larger than a twenty dollar bill
• When the program terminates, the profit for the day must be displayed and the number of each denomination must be shown.

Your program must contain:

• a cash register object
• a coin/denomination object - each coin has a denomination, total monetary amount, and total number of coins of that denomination
• An item object - each item has a name and an amount
• Each object must be fully defined
  • overloaded operators including input and output
  • constructors
  • setters and getters
• vectors
• default arguments where appropriate
• constants where appropriate

As you read this assignment you should have lots of questions that are not answered by this web page. This is intentional so that you encounter places where you must make design decisions. After part one's due date, more details will be provided.

Design the program by creating an outline or flowchart. Problem decomposition will result in a list of the main pieces of the solution. You should have the two classes defined and written in C++ (note: this is the definition of the classes, not the implmentation) Describe how data will flow between objects.
Consider how the entire order is tracked. Would it help if you knew the number of items? Then decide which of these (or other objects) are necessary for your design. Write the C++ class definition for each of these objects, then provide one to three sentences describing what each method is for and a few words describing what each data member will be used for.

You are to write the code for input, panel "display", and the cash register object. You are also to write a main funtion that calls the implemented methods and tests them.
