Pointers and Dynamic Memory Chapter 11

Write code using heap allocation based pointers and use the Accounts class from week 1 assignment as follows create a program in which you

Using operator new create a function that allocates 10 account objects on the heap using an array with indexes 0 to 9 and refer to each account using pointer notation.

Access the Account objects above using pointer notation and add an initial balance of $100 to each account.

Write an interactive program (function if you prefer) in which the program should prompt the user enter a user id and password. If the id and password are not entered incorrectly, ask the user to do it again. Once id and password is correctly accepted display a menu which gives the user the ability to

(i) view the fifth accounts balance in the heap array you created,

(ii) withdraw money from the fifth account in the array,

(iii) deposit money in the fifth account, and

(iv) exit the menu.

Make sure to access the fifth account using pointer notation only.

After menu exit, prompt for a new user id and password and start again.

Deallocate the Accounts array that is heap allocate using an appropriate operator delete before exiting the program.
