Your task for this assignment is to develop a computer repair scheduling application. The application will use an array-based heap to implement a priority queue data structure in C++. This will be accomplished utilizing a user-defined class.

1. Implement a transaction-based priority queue data structure using C++. The program will be interactive. A prompt will be displayed requesting an input transaction. Each input transaction will be entered at the command line and results will be displayed on the console.
2. Each input transaction will represent a new computer repair order to be scheduled or a “service” command. A new computer repair order will be represented in three parts separated by hyphens: customer ID (variable length), computer model year (4 digits), and warranty code (y or n). Each repair order will be scheduled based on priority and the order in which the repair order was received (first-come-first-served). A warranty repair order (i.e., warranty code = ‘y’) is assigned priority 1 (highest). A non-warranty repair for a computer model less than 6 years old is assigned priority 2. A non-warranty repair order for a computer model older than 5 years is assigned a priority 3 (lowest). Each repair order is placed in a priority queue and will be serviced by the next available repair technician.

A transaction that contains a “service” command results in a repair order being removed from the priority queue and the customer ID being displayed on the console. A transaction containing the string “end-of-file” will signal the end of the input. Display the number of repair orders remaining in the queue when the “end-of-file” transaction is processed.

 

Sample input transactions and output expected:

guo-2018-y

hannie-2014-n

ian-2004-y

service (output: guo)

service (output: ian)

danny-2012-n

eli-2017-n

fan-1992-y

service (output: fan)

service (output: hannie)

ann-2013-y

bow-2016-n

cho-2013-n

service (output: ann)

service (output: eli)

service (output: bow)

end-of-file (output: There are 2 remaining repair orders in the queue.)
