Answered! I am not sure about how to get the text data put in to get the information output of this code EMPLOYEE INFORMATION FOR TEXT DATA…

1. changed type of id and name to string from char array. Also file name payroll.dat had a comma instead of dot in the constructor.

2. in calculatetax, condition to check martialstatus had a single = sign, changed it to ==

3. overtime and overtimepay need to be reset to 0 for next record, otherwise it will take values previously computed. (in calculategrosspay() ). Also overtime is calculated as hoursworked – 40

4. The most important of all is that we need to extract data from the file based on the format. Since a hyphen i.e. – separates the actual data from its name, we need to tokenize and break the string and extract data. This is the change that is done in loop when each line is read.

Sample output is also attached. Please don’t forget to rate the answer if it helped. Thank you very much.
