Chapter 9 // Exercise 16
Define an input operator (>>) that reads monetary amounts with currency denominations, such as USD1.23 and DKK5.00, into a Money variable. Also define a corresponding output operator.
main.cpp
moneyClass.h
moneyClass.cpp
My example is omitting some error checking due to time constraints so don't put in any illegal values otherwise it'll break however it does what he has asked for. When using cin >> with a Money variable it allows the user to input a new monetary value as well as change the currency. The << was already implemented in the last exercise. I also learnt in this exercise that there is a whole load of functions in the standard library for converting strings to almost any type of decimal. Bless the standard library.
