Question

The Boolean Foundation hosted a raffle to raise money for charity and used a computer program to notify the participants about the results. Unfortunately, the program they used was not very robust and all 250 participants received an email telling them that they won... and that their name is Shauna.

Improve this program by writing a function called sendEmail to print a personalized email to stdout. The function should take three parameters:
The name of the recipient
The prize for the raffle
Whether or not the recipient won
Use the email template from the existing program.
#include
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Dear Shauna," << endl;
cout << "You are the winner of our raffle for charity." << endl;
cout << "The prize was: a stuffed giraffe toy" << endl;
cout << "Thank you for giving to charity!" << endl;
cout << "Sincerely," << endl;
cout << "The Boolean Foundation" << endl;
return 0;
}

Answer 1

The function is as follows:

void sendEmail(string name, string prize, string win_lose){

cout << "Dear "<<name<<", " << endl;

cout << "You are the "<<win_lose<<" of our raffle for charity." << endl;

cout << "The prize was: "<<prize<< endl;

cout << "Thank you for giving to charity!" << endl;

cout << "Sincerely," << endl;

cout << "The Boolean Foundation" << endl;

}

Step-by-step explanation:

This defines the function along the three parameters

void sendEmail(string name, string prize, string win_lose){

This prints the salutation with the person's name

cout << "Dear "<<name<<", " << endl;

This prints if the person won or lost

cout << "You are the "<<win_lose<<" of our raffle for charity." << endl;

This prints the prize, if any

cout << "The prize was: "<<prize<< endl;

The following is the closing remark

cout << "Thank you for giving to charity!" << endl;

cout << "Sincerely," << endl;

cout << "The Boolean Foundation" << endl;
