I am asked to

Write a program to assign passengers seats in an airplane. Assume a small airplane with seat numbering as follows:

1 A B C D
2 A B C D
3 A B C D
4 A B C D
5 A B C D
6 A B C D
7 A B C D

Am I going in the right direction? I need to use 4 arrays

//seating
# include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{

Char row[7];
seat [1]=ABCD
seat [2]=ABCD
seat [3]=ABCD
seat [4]=ABCD
seat [5]=ABCD
seat [6]=ABCD
seat [7]=ABCD
???

Are you just arbitrarily guessing? Try thinking for more than 2 seconds. You declare an array of char 7, and then refer to seat. It's not compileable code anyway. Why 7 chars? I see 7 rows of A, B, C, and D. Why does it need to be a char? You're assigning passengers, not chars.

I don't see the airplane. All I see are the seats. Where's the airplane??

write out the logic of the program first without thinking about code. Work out the logic and flow of the problem then try and convert it. EX: for each row there are X amount of seats. Assigned to each seat is a passenger, before i assign a passenger to the seat is it already taken, ect.
